Severe congenital neutropenia: abnormal growth and differentiation of myeloid progenitors to granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) but normal response to G-CSF plus stem cell factor.
Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain the pathogenesis of severe congenital neutropenia (SCN); however, the mechanism(s) still remains unknown. In particular, clinical observations suggest that abnormal responsiveness of myeloid progenitors to hematopoietic growth factors (HGFs) is a possible mechanism. Therefore, to better define the status of hematopoietic progenitors in the bone m...
متن کاملGranulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) production and G-CSF receptor structure in patients with congenital neutropenia.
Congenital neutropenia (Kostmann's syndrome [KS]) is an autosomal recessive syndrome that is characterized by profound neutropenia, resulting in major clinical infections and death. Since the neutropenia and symptoms in KS improve in response to exogenous administration of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), we studied bone marrow cytokine (G-CSF, granulocyte-macrophage CSF [GM-CSF],...
متن کاملP 112: Combining Granulocyte-Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) and Stem Cells in Treatment of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is described as a situation in which the brain is damaged by an external force. It is considered to be a chief problem in health care. Pharmacotherapy and stem cell therapy are the main treatments used in TBI. The purpose of these procedures is to control the inflammation in injured regions of brain. Currently, there is no effective care for TBI that could regenerat...
متن کاملNovel Point Mutation in the Extracellular Domain of the Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (G-Csf) Receptor in a Case of Severe Congenital Neutropenia Hyporesponsive to G-Csf Treatment
Severe congenital neutropenia (SCN) is a heterogeneous condition characterized by a drastic reduction in circulating neutrophils and a maturation arrest of myeloid progenitor cells in the bone marrow. Usually this condition can be successfully treated with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). Here we describe the identification of a novel point mutation in the extracellular domain of ...
متن کاملGranulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) and granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) for sepsis: a meta-analysis
INTRODUCTION To investigate the effects of G-CSF or GM-CSF therapy in non-neutropenic patients with sepsis. METHODS A systematic literature search of Medline, Embase and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials was conducted using specific search terms. A manual review of references was also performed. Eligible studies were randomized control trials (RCTs) that compared granulocyte-colo...
