Examples of hematopoiesis in the following topics:
-
- Platelets are continuously produced as a component product of hematopoiesis (blood cell formation).
- Platelets are produced during hematopoiesis in a sub-process called thromopoiesis, or production of thrombocytes.
-
-
- Hematopoiesis as it occurs in humans, with important hemopoietic growth factors affecting differentiation.
-
-
- The three main classes of anemia include excessive blood loss (acutely, such as a hemorrhage or chronically, through low-volume loss), excessive blood cell destruction (hemolysis), or deficient red blood cell production (ineffective hematopoiesis).
-
- In children, hematopoiesis occurs in the marrow of the long bones, such as the femur and tibia.
