概述
Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor(GM-CSF)is secreted by a number of different cell types(including activated T cells,B cells,macrophages,mast cells,endothelial cells and fibroblasts)in response to cytokine or immune and inflammatory stimulation.It was initially characterized as a growth factor that can support the in vitro colony formation of granulocyte-macrophage progenitors and has functions of stimulates the growth and differentiation of hematopoietic precursor cells from various lineages.GM-CSF has also been reported to have a functional role on non-hematopoietic cells and can induce human endothelial cells to migrate and proliferate.Additionally,it can stimulate the proliferation of a number of tumor cell lines,including osteogenic sarcoma,carcinoma and adenocarcinoma cell lines.Mouse GM-CSF shares 54%sequences identity with human GM-CSF,but has no biological effects across species.GM-CSF is used as a medication to stimulate the production of white blood cells following chemotherapy and has also recently been evaluated in clinical trials for its potential as a vaccine adjuvant in HIV-infected patients.
