Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor in Staphylococcus aureus-induced arthritis.
Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is a cytokine that is able to increase not only the production of phagocytic cells but also their efficacy with respect to, e.g., bactericidal properties. In this study, we wanted to analyze the impact of GM-CSF on experimental Staphylococcus aureus-induced arthritis. For that purpose, mice were administered GM-CSF before and after bacte...
متن کاملGranulocyte Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor
Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a model for multiple sclerosis, can be induced by immunization with a number of myelin antigens. In particular, myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein, a central nervous system (CNS)-specific antigen expressed on the myelin surface, is able to induce a paralytic MS-like disease with extensive CNS inflammation and demyelination in several strains of ...

We show that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25[0H12D3), the most hormonally active metabolite of vitamin 113, modulates sensitively and specifically both the protein and messenger RNA accumulation of the multilineage growth factor granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). The regulation of GMCSF expression is seen in both normal human mitogen-activated T lymphocytes and T lymphocy...
متن کاملThe Expression of Human Granulocyte Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor by Heat-Induction in Escherichia coli
A self-regulated high-copy number plasmid containing chloramphenicol resistant gene, for the production of recombinant proteins under the regulation of bacteriophage ?pL promoter, was constructed. The designed 5024 base pair expression plasmid contained a heat sensitive repressor cI857 coding gene to regulate the function of ?pL promoter under heat shock induction. Using the constructed vector,...

In order to determine whether human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) can enhance phagocytosis. neutrophils were combined with Staphylococcus aureus (S aureus). and both the number of bacteria per neutrophil and the percent of neutrophils phagocytizing were assessed in the absence and presence of GM-CSF. Exposure to GM-CSF did not enable neutrophils to ingest unopsonized...
