Therapeutic use of hematopoietic growth factors for patients receiving high-dose chemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation

Research output: Contribution to journalReview articlepeer-review

Abstract

The proliferation, differentiation, and function of hematopoietic cells is regulated by a complex family of hematopoietic growth factors. Many of these factors have been molecularly cloned and produced for potential clinical use. This review summarizes the biologic effects of the colony-stimulating factors and interleukins that govern hematopoiesis and their potential clinical role in the setting of bone marrow transplantation.
