Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) producing malignant pleural mesothelioma: Report of a case
This report presents a case of malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) producing granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) that was treated by tumor resection. A 76-year-old male presented with a huge right-side chest wall tumor, along with a slight fever and chest wall pain. Laboratory findings showed an increased white blood cell count (64600 cells/μL) and C-reactive protein level (20.57 mg/...
متن کاملGranulocyte Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor
Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a model for multiple sclerosis, can be induced by immunization with a number of myelin antigens. In particular, myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein, a central nervous system (CNS)-specific antigen expressed on the myelin surface, is able to induce a paralytic MS-like disease with extensive CNS inflammation and demyelination in several strains of ...

We show that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25[0H12D3), the most hormonally active metabolite of vitamin 113, modulates sensitively and specifically both the protein and messenger RNA accumulation of the multilineage growth factor granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). The regulation of GMCSF expression is seen in both normal human mitogen-activated T lymphocytes and T lymphocy...
متن کاملRegulation of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor expression by oncostatin M.
Oncostatin M (OM) is structurally and functionally related to a subclass of hematopoietic cytokines including leukemia-inhibitory factor (LIF), ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), and interleukin-6 (IL-6). Using human endothelial cells (HEC) as a model for cytokine regulation of hematopoietic growth factor expression, we tested OM as an inducer of ...
متن کاملProduction of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor by malignant mesothelioma.
We present the case of a male patient, aged 45 yrs, with malignant mesothelioma producing granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). The diagnosis was established by histopathological examination of the autopsied pleural tissues. Production of G-CSF was confirmed by immunoperoxidase staining, using a specific monoclonal antibody against recombinant G-CSF (rhG-CSF).
