Abstract excerpt
The interactions of purified recombinant human leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), interleukin-6 (IL-6), granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), and granulocyte-macrophage CSF (GM-CSF) on the clonogenicity of HL60 cells and U937 cells were studied in vitro. IL-6 alone strongly suppressed colony formation by U937 cells with induction of differentiation and loss of clonogenicity. GM-CSF interacted...
