Target Information

G-CSF (Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor) is a naturally occurring cytokine that stimulates the production and antibacterial function of neutrophils and monocytes.
Human G-CSF is an 18.8 kDa protein containing 175 amino acid residues, and a soluble isoform of the G-CSF receptor has been described.

This pleiotropic cytokine is produced by activated monocytes, macrophages, endothelial cells, fibroblasts, astrocytes, osteoblasts, and bone marrow cells. It influences proliferation, differentiation, and activation of hematopoietic cells.
G-CSF is also expressed by various transformed cells such as carcinoma and myeloblastic leukemia cells.

G-CSF is encoded by two distinct DNA sequences, resulting in full-size (high activity) and shorter (low activity) isoforms. It is highly conserved among species and exerts biological functions through interaction with its receptor expressed on hematopoietic progenitors, neutrophilic granulocytes, and certain carcinoma cell lines.

Clinically, G-CSF is used in therapies for neonatal infections, acute myocardial infarction, granulocyte transfusion in neutropenia, severe infections and sepsis, chronic autoimmune neutropenia, acute myeloid leukemia, Sweet’s syndrome, and AIDS.
It is also a marker protein for carcinomas such as bladder cancer, and dysfunction of G-CSF is linked to Kostmann Syndrome.
