Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor

A mononuclear phagocyte colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) synthesized by mesenchymal cells. The compound stimulates the survival, proliferation, and differentiation of hematopoietic cells of the monocyte-macrophage series. M-CSF is a disulfide-bonded glycoprotein dimer with a MW of 70 kDa. It binds to a specific high affinity receptor (RECEPTOR, MACROPHAGE COLONY-STIMULATING FACTOR).

Colony Stimulating Factor 1; Colony Stimulating Factor, Macrophage; CSF-1; CSF-M; Colony-Stimulating Factor 1; Colony-Stimulating Factor, Macrophage; M-CSF
