Les cellules non lymphoïdes du sang proviennent d'une cellule souche multipotente CFU-GEMM (colony-forming unit-granulocyte, erythrocyte, monocyte, megakariocyte). La CFU-GEMM se différencie elle-même en cellules-souches d'une seule lignée sanguine : CFU-MK pour la lignée mégacaryocyto-plaquettaire, CFU-GM pour la lignée granulocyto-monocytaire, CFU-Eo pour la lignée éosinophile, BFU-E et CFU-E pour la lignée érythroïde. 1, record 1, French, - cellule%20souche%20unipotente%2C%20lign%C3%A9e%20granulocyto%2Dmonocytaire
