TLDR
It is shown by mRNA analysis that an immortalized line of human endothelial cells constitutively produce granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, and interleukin 1 and tumor necrosis factor induce early passage human umbilical endothelium cells to produce the same growth factor.
Abstract
Monokine-stimulated endothelial cells are known to produce both burst- and colony-stimulating activities, but neither the nature of the monokine nor the hematopoietic growth factor(s) produced is known. We show by mRNA analysis that an immortalized line of human endothelial cells constitutively produce granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor. Furthermore, interleukin 1 and tumor necrosis factor induce early passage human umbilical endothelial cells to produce the same growth factor.

The human hematopoietic colony-stimulating factors

TL;DR: These advances have led to a much better understanding of the role of the myeloid growth factors in regulating hematopoiesis in vivo that should soon find practical application in clinical medicine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Granulocyte- and granulocyte-macrophage-colony stimulating factors induce human endothelial cells to migrate and proliferate.

TL;DR: It is reported that G-CSF and GM- CSF influence the migration and proliferation of human endothelial cells suggesting that these molecules may act as regulatory signals outside the haematopoietic system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hematopoietic growth factors.

TL;DR: Recombinant purified HGFs have been used to investigate their functions in vitro, the binding characteristics of their receptors, and the isolation of certain receptor cDNAs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of myeloid development and function by colony stimulating factors.

TL;DR: Although most of available knowledge about CSFs is on human and mouse CSFs, an attempt was made to integrate recent findings in other systems in order to highlight a more widespread role for CSFs throughout evolution.

"Panning" for lymphocytes: a method for cell selection

TL;DR: The plastic dish method will be generally useful for fractionating cells on the basis of their cell surface antigens and can be modified to allow the selection of cells by a double-antibody procedure.

Human GM-CSF: molecular cloning of the complementary DNA and purification of the natural and recombinant proteins

TL;DR: Clones of complementary DNA encoding the human lymphokine known as granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) were isolated by means of a mammalian cell (monkey COS cell) expression screening system and one of these clones was used to produce recombinant GM- CSF in mammalian cells.

Human tumor necrosis factor: Production, purification, and characterization

TL;DR: Human tumor necrosis factor was purified to homogeneity from serum-free tissue culture supernatants of the HL-60 promyelocytic leukemia cell line induced by 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate.

Antigens on human monocytes identified by monoclonal antibodies.

TL;DR: Results indicate that Mo1 and Mo2 are unique antigens that may represent distinct stages of late monocyte-granulocyte differentiation.

Cachectin/tumor necrosis factor regulates hepatic acute-phase gene expression.

TL;DR: The monokine, cachectin/tumor necrosis factor differs from interleukin 1 in primary structure and in recognition by a distinct cellular receptor, and the possibility that recombinant-generated human TNF regulates hepatic acute-phase gene expression was examined.
