Colony stimulating factor 2
GM-CSF, granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor
The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine that controls the production, differentiation, and function of granulocytes and macrophages. The active form of the protein is found extracellularly as a homodimer. This gene has been localized to a cluster of related genes at chromosome region 5q31, which is known to be associated with interstitial deletions in the 5q- syndrome and acute myelogenous leukemia. Other genes in the cluster include those encoding interleukins 4, 5, and 13. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] (from

Gent, Belgium. In Immunity, Feb 2016
UNASSIGNED: In response to the comments by Lutz and colleagues to our recent preview of the paper from Helft and colleagues (Helft et al., 2015), we wish to respectfully point out that granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) bone-marrow (BM) cultures have indeed allowed conceptual advances essential for our current understanding of the immunobiology of myeloid cells.

A Review of GM-CSF Therapy in Sepsis.
Review
New
Gainesville, United States. In Medicine (baltimore), Dec 2015
Granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), a myelopoietic growth factor currently used in patients with neutropenia secondary to chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression, has been studied as a potential immune-activating agent.The applicability of GM-CSF as a standard therapy for generalized sepsis is still largely understudied; however, small-scale studies available have demonstrated some improved recovery from infection, decreased hospital length of stay, decreased days requiring mechanical ventilation, and decreased medical costs.

We included two trials in the review, one with 40 breast cancer patients receiving high-dose chemotherapy and G-CSF compared to antibiotics, a second one evaluating 155 patients with small-cell lung cancer receiving GM-CSF or antibiotics.We judge the overall risk of bias as high in the G-CSF trial, as neither patients nor physicians were blinded and not all included patients were analysed as randomised (7 out of 40 patients).
