The colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1) receptor (c-fms proto-oncogene product) and its ligand.
Alterations in genes that function in normal growth and development have been linked to malignant cell transformation. The mononuclear phagocyte colony-stimulating factor (CSF-1 or M-CSF) is a polypeptide growth factor synthesized by mesenchymal cells, which stimulates the survival, proliferation, and differentiation of haematopoietic cells of the monocyte-macrophage series. Multiple forms of s...
متن کاملReassessment of the murine c-fms proto-oncogene sequence.
The c-fms gene encodes the receptor for the macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) which promotes the proliferation and survival of cells of the monocytic lineage (1). A cDNA library was constructed from a murine myeloblastic leukemic cell line, BMC-4, in which the c-fms gene was overexpressed (2). Eleven independent full-length cDNAs were isolated after screening with a probe encompassin...
متن کاملExpression pattern and neurotrophic role of the c-fms proto-oncogene M-CSF receptor in rodent Purkinje cells.
To investigate whether the c-fms proto-oncogene plays a role in the CNS, we examined its expression in mouse brain. We found that c-fms-positive Purkinje cells first appeared in caudal cerebellum at postnatal day 0 (P0) arranged in a parasagittal manner, and most Purkinje cells gradually became positive by P6. This differential expression was not seen from P7 to adulthood, and the parasagittal ...
متن کاملMonoclonal antibodies to the human CSF-1 receptor (c-fms proto-oncogene product) detect epitopes on normal mononuclear phagocytes and on human myeloid leukemic blast cells.
The first monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) to epitopes in the extracellular domain of the human c-fms proto-oncogene product (receptor for the macrophage colony stimulating factor, CSF-1) were used with flow cytometric techniques to study receptor expression on normal human peripheral blood monocytes, bone marrow cells, and leukemic blasts. On normal cells CSF-1 receptors were restricted in their ...
متن کاملEffect of all-trans-retinoic acid on c-fms proto-oncogene [colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1) receptor] expression and CSF-1-induced invasion and anchorage-independent growth of human breast carcinoma cells.
Abnormal expression of c-fms proto-oncogene, which encodes for the macrophage colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) receptor, has been observed in a variety of carcinomas of epithelial origin, including those of the breast. Here, we have investigated the effect of retinoic acid (RA), an important regulator of normal differentiation of mammary epithelial tissues, on the expression of the c-fms gen...
