G-CSF mobilizes CD34 <sup>+</sup> regulatory monocytes that inhibit graft-versus-host disease
1 Apr 2015
Abstract excerpt
Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is routinely used to collect peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) from healthy donors for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). We show that, in both humans and mice, G-CSF mobilizes a subset of CD34(+) cells with mature monocyte features. These cells, which are phenotypically and functionally conserved in mice and humans, are...
