Recombinant Mouse M-CSF Protein (E. coli)

Biological Activity

Macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF), also known as colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1), is a hematopoietic growth factor. It can stimulate the survival, proliferation and differentiation of mononuclear phagocytes, and can stimulate the proliferation and movement of macrophages. M-csf is mainly produced by monocytes, macrophages, fibroblasts and endothelial cells. The interaction of M-CSF with its receptor C-FMS is associated with growth, invasion, and metastasis in a variety of diseases, including breast cancer and endometrial cancer.

Measured in a cell proliferation assay using Murine M-NFS-60 cells, the ED50 is < 3.0 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 3.3 × 10⁵ units/mg.
