Factors regulating macrophage production and growth: identity of colony- stimulating factor and macrophage growth factor
نویسندگان
چکیده
The activities of a colony-stimulating factor (CSF), which stimulates granulocyte-macrophage colony formation by mouse hemopoietic cells, and macrophage growth factor (MGF), which stimulates proliferation of activated peritoneal macrophages, have been demonstrated by various criteria to reside in the same molecular species. These criteria include occurrence in various sources and copurification of the activities in mouse L-cell-conditioned medium as well as the biological, physicochemical, and antigenic properties of the activities of L-cell-conditioned medium. CSF and MGF activities of L-cell-conditioned medium are ascribable to a glycoprotein of mol wt approximately 60,000 which migrates electrophoretically with alpha-globulin. Human urinary CSF, which also possesses MGF activity, has similar properties and can be neutralized by antiserum to highly purified L-cell medium CSF. A procedure is described for the partial purification of material from L-cell medium that has activity at 1 ng/ml in both MGF and CSF assays.

High-yield Production of Granulocyte-macrophage Colony-stimulating Factor in E. coli BL21 (DE3) By an Auto-induction Strategy
A novel strategy to increase protein expression yield is unintended induction of expression in complex media, called auto-induction. This method can be used to express proteins under control of the lac promoter without any need to monitor bacterial growth pattern, and addition of specific expression inducers such as Isopropyl β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) at proper time. In the present stu...

THE ROLE OF ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES IN THE PRODUCTION OF COLONY –STIMULATING FACTOR BY THE LUNG
The role of alveolar macrophages in the production of granulocyte/ macrophage colony-stimulating factor(s) by the rat lung was investigated. Lavaged lungs, when incubated at proper weight per volume of culture medium, produced the same amount of colony-stimulating factor as unlavaged ones. Both lavaged and unlavaged lungs produced similar types of colony-stimulating factor (s). Prolonged i...

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,...
