The constant renewal of blood cells in vertebrate species depends on the proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow (Harrisonet al. 1988). These cells in turn give rise to progenitor cells which are committed to more restricted pathways of differentiation. The survival, proliferation, and differentiation of these progenitor cells are regulated by the colony stimulating factors (CSFs), so named because of their ability to promote the in vitro proliferation and differentiation of single progenitor cells into macroscopic colonies with discernible differentiated cell types (PluznikandSachs1965;BradleyandMetcalf1966;Ichikawaet al. 1966). This group of hematopoietic growth factors includes interleukin-3 (IL-3), granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), interleukin-5 (IL-5), and colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) (reviewed inSTANLEYandJUBINSKY1984;METCALF1986).
