A primitive stem cell in bone marrow that develops into various types of mature blood cells.
From Greek 'haima' (blood) + 'kytos' (cell) + 'blastos' (bud). It combines roots meaning 'blood,' 'cell,' and 'developing form.'
Haemocytoblasts are the ultimate ancestors of your entire blood supply—when something goes wrong with them (like in leukemia), your entire blood system breaks down.
