caution:PubMed:2420009 misquotes the gene name as "CSF1".,function:Granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factors are cytokines that act in hematopoiesis by controlling the production, differentiation, and function of 2 related white cell populations of the blood, the granulocytes and the monocytes-macrophages. This CSF induces granulocytes.,online information:Clinical information on Neupogen/Granulokine,pharmaceutical:Available under the names Neupogen or Granulokine (Amgen/Roche) and Granocyte (Rhone-Poulenc). Used to treat neutropenia (a disorder characterized by an extremely low number of neutrophils in blood).,PTM:O-glycan consists of Gal-GalNAc disaccharide which can be modified with up to two sialic acid residues (done in recombinantly expressed G-CSF from CHO cells).,similarity:Belongs to the IL-6 superfamily.,subunit:Monomer.,
