Blood cells, illustration C018 / 0802
Blood cells. All cellular blood components originate from the same cell, the haematopoietic stem cell. The stem cell differentiates into two types of progenitor cells. The common lymphoid progenitor cell gives rise to B and T lymphocytes (top right and right). The common myeloid progenitor cell gives rise to all the other cells

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Blood cells, illustration C018 / 0802" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate world of our circulatory system. The image showcases the remarkable journey of blood components, all originating from a single cell known as the haematopoietic stem cell (HSC). In this artwork by Claudia Stocker, we witness the differentiation process that occurs within HSCs. Two types of progenitor cells emerge: common lymphoid progenitor cells and common myeloid progenitor cells. The former gives rise to B and T lymphocytes, which are depicted elegantly in the top right and right corners respectively. Meanwhile, the latter type of progenitor cell is responsible for generating all other cellular blood components. From red blood cells (erythrocytes) to white blood cells (such as monocytes and neutrophils), thrombocytes (platelets), granulocytes like eosinophils, this illustration beautifully captures their diverse forms. The vibrant purple hues add an artistic touch to this scientific representation while emphasizing its biological significance. This visual masterpiece not only highlights the complexity of hematopoiesis but also underscores how these cellular components play crucial roles in our immune system's function. Claudia Stocker's artwork serves as a reminder that even at a microscopic level, there is immense beauty and intricacy within our bodies waiting to be explored.
