Granulopoiesis (or granulocytopoiesis) is hematopoiesis of granulocytes.

It occurs primarily within bone marrow and involves the following stages:

  • Pluripotential hemopoietic stem cell
  • Myeloblast
  • Promyelocyte
  • Eosino/neutro/basophilic myelocyte
  • Metamyelocyte
  • Band cell (Stab cell)
  • Granulocytes (Eosino/neutro/basophil)
  • It can be stimulated by Candida albicans.
