Administration of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) for the intracranial hemorrhage in two dogs: a case report
Two dogs with generalized seizures were evaluated. The dogs were diagnosed with traumatic intracranial hemorrhages based on the history, neurological examinations, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain. Treatment was started with oxygen, prednisolone and anticonvulsant agents. No further seizure activity was observed after treatment in both dogs, however cushing reflex was detected ...
متن کاملInduction of Apoptosis on K562 Cell Line and Double Strand Breaks on Colon Cancer Cell Line Expressing High Affinity Receptor for Granulocyte Macrophage-Colony Stimulating factor (GM-CSF)
Background: Immunotoxins are comprised of both the cell targeting and the cell killing moieties. We previously established a new immunotoxin, i.e. Shiga toxin granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (StxA1-GM-CSF), comprises of catalytic domain of Stx, as a killing moiety and GM-CSF, as a cell targeting moiety. In this study, the ability of the immunotoxin to induce apoptosis and dou...
متن کاملThe Expression of Human Granulocyte Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor by Heat-Induction in Escherichia coli
A self-regulated high-copy number plasmid containing chloramphenicol resistant gene, for the production of recombinant proteins under the regulation of bacteriophage ?pL promoter, was constructed. The designed 5024 base pair expression plasmid contained a heat sensitive repressor cI857 coding gene to regulate the function of ?pL promoter under heat shock induction. Using the constructed vector,...

Human granulocyte colony stimulating factor (hG-CSF) induces proliferation and differentiation of granulocyte progenitor cells. This glycoprotein is currently being used for treatment of neutropenia, in patients who have undergone bone marrow transplantation. So far, different researchers have tried to enhance hG-CSF biological activity and stability. In this study, Polymerase Chain Reaction (P...
متن کاملProduction of Recombinant Human Granulocyte-Colony Stimulating Factor by Pichia pastoris
Human granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (hG-CSF) cDNA was expressed in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris under the control of the alcohol oxidase (AOX1) promoter. An expression vector for hG-CSF secretion was constructed using vector pPIC9. Higher levels of hG-CSF was obtained using a P. pastoris Mut+ (methanol utilization fast) phenotype. The effects of environmental factors such as...
