==Neutrophils==
Under the stimulation of GM-CSF, G-CSF and Il-3 the [[Haematopoiesis - Overview#Colony Forming Units|CFU-GEMM]] differentiates into the [[Haematopoiesis - Overview#Colony Forming Units|CFU-GM]], the common precursor for both neutrophils and monocytes. This then further differentiates into the [[Haematopoiesis - Overview#Colony Forming Units|CFU-G]].

Large cell with a large nucleus and which demonstrates basophilic staining. This stage exists for all granulocytes.
=====Promyelocyte=====
  −
During this stage primary (azurophilic) granules are formed. Same stage exists for all granulocytes.
  −
=====Neutrophilic myelocyte=====
  −
Developing neutrophil can now be differentiated from basophils and eosinophils as specific granules are now being formed.
  −
=====Neutrophilic metamyelocyte=====
  −
At this stage mitosis can no longer occur. The nucleus elongates, becomes heterochromatic and has a kidney like shape. Differentiation is now much clearer between other granulocytes as the specific granules are in a far greater number than the primary granules formed in the promyelocyte stage.

====Neutrophil====
 
Mature neutrophil is formed and the nucleus is segmented and has 3 to 5 lobes. This lobular structure of the nucleus gives rise to the name polymorphonuclear neutrophil.

These stages are common to all granulocytes and no distinction can be made between different cell lines.
Specific granules start to appear in the myelocyte stage and once the cell has reached the metamyelocyte stage it cannot undergo further mitosis.

Specific granules start to appear in the myelocyte stage, and as the cell develops into the metamyelocyte stage, mitosis ceases.
