MeSH definition : An acidic glycoprotein of MW 23 kDa with internal disulfide bonds. The protein is
produced in response to a number of inflammatory mediators by mesenchymal cells present
in the hemopoietic environment and at peripheral sites of inflammation. GM-CSF is
able to stimulate the production of neutrophilic granulocytes, macrophages, and mixed
granulocyte-macrophage colonies from bone marrow cells and can stimulate the formation
of eosinophil colonies from fetal liver progenitor cells. GM-CSF can also stimulate
some functional activities in mature granulocytes and macrophages.;
