Serum Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor and Alzheimer’s Disease

Dementia and Geriatric Cognitive Disorders Extra, 2012
Background: Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) promotes the survival and function of neutrophils. G-CSF is also a neurotrophic factor, increasing neuroplasticity and suppressing apoptosis. Methods: We analyzed G-CSF levels in 197 patients with

Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor-dependent CD11c-positive cells differentiate into active osteoclasts. [PDF]

, 2017
Levels of circulating cytokines are elevated in inflammatory diseases. Previously, it was shown that interleukin (IL-)17A, in synergism with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] and tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), induces the release of granulocyte ...

Further characterization of the binding of heparin to granulocyte colony-stimulating factor: Importance of sulfate groups

, 2008
Heparin mediates fundamental biological mechanisms through interaction with proteins. Previously, we have shown that standard heparin binds to granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) with an affinity of 4.8 x 10(5) M-1.
