THE BIOLOGY AND CLINICAL-APPLICATIONS OF GRANULOCYTE-MACROPHAGE COLONY-STIMULATING FACTOR SYMP DURING THE NATIONAL PEDIATRIC BLOOD CLUB PROGRAM OF THE AMERICAN PEDIATRIC SOC AND THE SOC OF PEDIATRIC RESEARCH : LYMPHOCYTES AND LYMPHOKINES IN HEALTH AND DISEASE Sakamoto, K.

Abstract

GM-CSF is a hematopoietic growth factor that regulates myeloid cell proliferation and maturation and enhances the function of terminally differentiated effector cells. Results of clinical trials with GM-CSF in a number of disease states suggest a potential role of this growth factor to stimulate hematopoiesis. Future use of GM-CSF will depend on further studies to optimize its therapeutic efficacy.
