Title: Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor
CAS Registry Number: 143011-72-7
Additional Names: CSF-b; G-CSF; GM-DF; MGI-2; pluripoietin
Literature References: Hematopoietic growth factor that stimulates the development of committed progenitor cells to neutrophils and enhances the functional activities of the mature end-cell. Glycoprotein of mol wt 18-22 kDa; produced in response to specific stimulation by a variety of cells including monocytes, fibroblasts and endothelial cells. Murine and human molecules exhibit cross species reactivity. Originally identified as a differentiation factor for murine leukemic cells. Characterization in mouse serum: J. Lotem et al., Int. J.
