Red Blood Cells
Reticulocytes
Immature red blood cells, freshly released from the bone marrow, provide insight into how actively your body is producing new red cells.
Red Blood Cells (Erythrocytes)
Red blood cells transport oxygen to tissues and remove carbon dioxide, essential for energy and survival. Their biconcave shape and hemoglobin content make them uniquely efficient.
White Blood Cells (Leukocyets)
White blood cells defend against infections and regulate immunity. Split into granulocytes and agranulocytes, each plays a specialized role in protecting your body.
Granulocytes
Neutrophils
The first responders to infections, especially bacterial, quickly engulfing and destroying harmful invaders.
Basophils
Rare cells that release histamine and other chemicals, playing a crucial role in allergic reactions and inflammation.
Eosinophils
Key players in fighting parasites and regulating allergic responses, these cells help maintain immune
Agranulocytes
Lymphocytes
Lymphocytes are central to your immune system, providing targeted defense against infections. T cells manage immune responses and kill infected cells, while B cells produce antibodies to neutralize pathogens.
Monocytes
Large cells that patrol the bloodstream, transforming into macrophages or dendritic cells to engulf pathogens and present antigens
Natural Killer Cells
These cells destroy virus-infected and cancerous cells without the need for prior activation.
Platelets (Thrombocytes)
Platelets are small cell fragments that form clots to stop bleeding and aid in wound healing, playing a vital role in preventing blood loss
Immature and Precursor Cell
Band Cells
Immature neutrophils that indicate the immune system is actively responding to infection or inflammation.
Blasts
Very immature blood cells, typically found in the bone marrow; their presence in blood may indicate leukemia or other disorders.
Specialized Cells
Plasma
Specialized B cells that produce large amounts of antibodies, vital for targeting specific infections and supporting long-term immunity.
Dendritic cells
Key immune system messengers, presenting antigens to T cells to kickstart and regulate immune responses.
Rare Cells
Nucleated red blood cells
Immature red cells typically found in the bone marrow, appearing in the blood during stress, hypoxia, or severe illness.
Immature granulocytes
Early-stage granulocytes that indicate heightened bone marrow activity, often seen in infections or inflammatory disorders.
