The effects of human recombinant granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) on the growth of cultured human bladder cancer cells and G-CSF receptor on these cells were investigated. Human bladder cancer cell lines, KU-1 or NBT-2, were incubated with and without G-CSF. At 48 hours, 3H-thymidine uptake of both cells was significantly higher with G-CSF (one ng./ml., 10 ng./ml.) than that of control without G-CSF (p less than 0.05). The binding of 125I-labeled KW-2228, a muteins of G-CSF, to KU-1 and NBT-2 was inhibited by unlabeled KW-2228 in a dose-dependent manner. These results demonstrated that G-CSF stimulates the clonal growth of human bladder cancer cells by binding to its specific receptors.

D013936 Thymidine A nucleoside in which THYMINE is linked to DEOXYRIBOSE. 2'-Deoxythymidine,Deoxythymidine,2' Deoxythymidine
D016179 Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor A glycoprotein of MW 25 kDa containing internal disulfide bonds. It induces the survival, proliferation, and differentiation of neutrophilic granulocyte precursor cells and functionally activates mature blood neutrophils. Among the family of colony-stimulating factors, G-CSF is the most potent inducer of terminal differentiation to granulocytes and macrophages of leukemic myeloid cell lines.

D016187 Receptors, Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor Receptors that bind and internalize the granulocyte-macrophage stimulating factor. Their MW is believed to be 84 kD. The most mature myelomonocytic cells, specifically human neutrophils, macrophages, and eosinophils, express the highest number of affinity receptors for this growth factor.
