Anti-G-CSF Antibody

G-CSF

Rabbit polyclonal antibody to G-CSF.

Recombinant human G-CSF.

Supplied in Phosphate Buffered Saline.

This antibody recognises human G-CSF (Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor), a 19.6kDa haematopoietic growth factor and member of the CSF family of hormone-like glycoproteins, which stimulates the development of bone marrow progenitor cells and in particular those committed to neutrophil lineage.The ability of G-CSF to stimulate the proliferation/differentiation and function of neutrophil granulocyte progenitor cells and survival of mature neutrophils, has resulted in G-CSF becoming an important factor in patient treatment following allogeneic (bone marrow/stem cell) transplantation and chemotherapy.To yield one-half maximal inhibition [ND50] of the biological activity of hG-CSF (0.5 ng/ml), a concentration of 0.04-0.06 ug/ml of this antibody is required.
