It was initially characterized as a growth factor that can support the in vitro colony formation of granulocyte-macrophage progenitors and has functions of stimulates the growth and differentiation of hematopoietic precursor cells from various lineages. GM-CSF has also been reported to have a functional role on non-hematopoietic cells and can induce human endothelial cells to migrate and proliferate. Additionally, it can stimulate the proliferation of a number of tumor cell lines, including osteogenic sarcoma, carcinoma and adenocarcinoma cell lines. Human GM-CSF shares 54 % sequences identity with mouse GM-CSF, but has no biological effects across species. GM-CSF is used as a medication to stimulate the production of white blood cells following chemotherapy and has also recently been evaluated in clinical trials for its potential as a vaccine adjuvant in HIV-infected patients.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eExpression system\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eEscherichia coli.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003ePurity\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\u0026gt; 98 % by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMolecular weight\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eApproximately 14.5 kDa, a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 127 amino acids.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eEndotoxin\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eLess than 1.0 EU\/μg of rHuGM-CSF as determined by LAL method.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eForm\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eSterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
