Immature
ERYTHROCYTES
. In
humans
, these are
ERYTHROID CELLS
that have just undergone extrusion of their
CELL NUCLEUS
. They still contain some
organelles
that gradually decrease in number as the
cells
mature.
RIBOSOMES
are last to disappear. Certain staining
techniques
cause components of the
ribosomes
to precipitate into characteristic "reticulum" (not the same as the
ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM
), hence the name
reticulocytes.
