Description
Granulocyte Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) is hematopoietic factor produced by entothelial cells, monocytes, fibroblasts and T cells in response to a number of inflammatory mediators. GM-CSF is able to stimulate the production of neutrophilic granulocytes, macrophages, and mixed granulocyte-macrophage colonies from bone marrow cells. GM-CSF can also stimulate some functional activities in mature granulocytes and macrophages. Human and mouse GM-CSF show no cross-reactivity
