Structural Formula Vector Image
Title: Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor
CAS Registry Number: 83869-56-1
CAS Name: Colony-stimulating factor-2
Additional Names: CSF-2; CSFa; GM-CSF; NIF-T
Literature References: Hematopoietic growth factor that stimulates the development of neutrophils and macrophages and promotes the proliferation and development of early erythroid, megakaryocytic and eosinophilic progenitor cells. Produced by endothelial cells, monocytes, fibroblasts and T lymphocytes. Inhibits neutrophil migration and enhances the functional activities of the mature end-cells.

Nicola et al., Blood 54, 614 (1979); and identity with neutrophil migration inhibition factor (NIF-T): J. C. Gasson et al., Science 226, 1339 (1984). Partial amino acid sequence of murine: L. G. Sparrow et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 82, 292 (1985). Cloning and expression of murine GM-CSF: N. M. Gough et al., Nature 309, 763 (1984); of human: G. G. Wong et al., Science 228, 810 (1985); F. Lee et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 82, 4360 (1985); M. A. Cantrell et al., ibid. 6250. Pharmacokinetics: W. P. Petros, Pharmacotherapy 12, Suppl 2-2, 32S (1992). Clinical comparison with G-CSF: S. Blackwell, J. Crawford, ibid. 20S. Review: J. C. Gasson, Blood 77, 1131-1145 (1991). Review of clinical and biological effects: S. G. Louie, B. Jung, Am. J. Hosp. Pharm. 50, Suppl 3, S10-S18 (1993).
