Recombinant Human G-CSF Granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) is a member of the colony-stimulating factor hematopoietic cytokine family (Cavalcante et al. 2015). Similar to other cytokines, G-CSF plays a critical role in the immune response to infection. G-CSF is expressed by a number of cell types including monocytes, macrophages and fibroblasts (Panopoulos and Watowich 2008). Protein levels are low in healthy individuals however increase significantly upon inflammatory stimuli such as interleukin 1 and TNF-alpha (Christensen et al. 2016, Panopoulos and Watowich 2008). G-CSF regulates neutrophilic granulocytes by stimulating neutrophil proliferation, differentiation, survival and also plays a key role in neutrophil mobilization into the bloodstream (Cavalcante et al. 2015). G-CSF signaling is mediated by binding to the G-CSF receptor (G-CSFR, CD114 in humans), which is expressed by a number of cell types including myeloid leukemic cells, mature neutrophils, platelets, monocytes and cardiomyocytes (Panopoulos and Watowich 2008). Upon ligand binding, G-CSFR dimerizes, which results in receptor phosphorylation and subsequent activation of a number of cell signaling pathways, including JAK/STAT and Ras-MAPK signaling pathways (Tamada et al. 2005, Avalos 1996). As a result of chemotherapy, cancer patients commonly develop neutropenia (Crawford et al. 2004). G-CSF is the active ingredient of drugs used to treat chemotherapy associated neutropenia (Lustberg 2012). G-CSF exacerbates inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis; Eyles et al. (2008) suggest modulation of G-CSF as a potential therapy route. The proliferative effect of G-CSF was demonstrated by performing a cell proliferation assay with NFS‑60 mouse myelogenous leukemia lymphoblast cells. The expected ED50 for this effect is 10-70 pg/ml. |
