RecombinantRat Colony Stimulating Factor 3 (granulocyte)GranulocyteColony-Stimulating Factor, G-CSFPluripoietin

Colony Stimulating Factor 3 (CSF3), formerly called granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G­CSF), is a pleiotropic cytokine. It is mainly produced by monocytes and macrophages upon activation by endotoxin, TNF­α and IFN­γ. Many cell types secreted this protein after LPS, IL1 or TNF­α activation, including fibroblasts, endothelial cells, astrocytes and bone marrow stromal cells. Various carcinoma cell lines and myeloblastic leukemia cells can express CSF3 constitutively. CSF3 is cytokine that acts in hematopoiesis by controlling the production, differentiation and function of two related white cell populations of the blood, the granulocytes and the monocytes­macrophages. In addition, it may function in some adhesion or recognition events at the cell surface.
