2.1 CYTOKINES/ GROWTH FACTORS Flashcards
EPO PCS
❖ Kidney (peritubular interstitial cell)
EPO PTC
❖ Bone marrow erythroid progenitors (BFU-E and CFU-E)
EPO BA
❖ Simulates proliferation of erythroid progenitors and prevents apoptosis of CFU-E
G-CSF PTC
❖ Neutrophil precursors
❖ Fibroblasts
❖ Leukemic myeloblasts
G-CSF BA
❖ Stimulates granulocyte colonies ❖ Differentiation of progenitors toward neutrophil lineage
❖ Stimulation of neutrophil maturation
GM-CSF PTC
❖ Bone marrow progenitor cells
❖ Dendritic cells
❖ Macrophages
❖ NKT cells
GM-CSF BA
❖ Promotes antigen presentation
❖ T cell homeostasis
❖ Hematopoietic cell growth factor
