Myeloid white blood cells. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of human myeloid white blood cells found in bone marrow. A type of leucocyte,these myeloid cells give rise to many types of white cells in the blood. They are undifferentiated,rounded in shape with typical protuberances on the cell surface. As a precursor cell in the bone marrow,they give rise to platelets,and white blood cells that play a role in the immune system (monocytes,neutrophils,eosinophils). The human myeloid cell line depends on growth factors to survive. These cells can be grown in culture successfully but do not differen- tiate. Magnification: x2,000 at 6x7cm size | |
