Recombinant human TNF alpha stimulates production of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor. 1987

H P Koeffler, and J Gasson, and J Ranyard, and L Souza, and M Shepard, and R Munker

Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) stimulates production of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) protein and mRNA in fibroblast cells. In contrast, TNF beta is at least 1,000-fold less potent than TNF alpha in increasing levels of G-CSF and GM-CSF activity and mRNA. The fibroblasts produce G-CSF and GM-CSF mRNA in a coordinate fashion after exposure to TNF. The ability of TNF alpha to stimulate production of CSF in fibroblasts may be pivotal to regulation of hematopoiesis.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007375 Interleukin-1 A soluble factor produced by MONOCYTES; MACROPHAGES, and other cells which activates T-lymphocytes and potentiates their response to mitogens or antigens. Interleukin-1 is a general term refers to either of the two distinct proteins, INTERLEUKIN-1ALPHA and INTERLEUKIN-1BETA. The biological effects of IL-1 include the ability to replace macrophage requirements for T-cell activation.

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
