M-CSF (CSF-1) is the primary regulator of macrophage survival, proliferation and differentiation. It is essential for macrophage-related functions such as bone resorption, vascular development, and innate immunity. It signals through M-CSF R on monocytes, tissue macrophages, and osteoblasts. Both M-CSF and its receptor can be expressed by tumor cells, allowing M-CSF to act as an autocrine growth factor for cancer cells. Full length M-CSF is expressed as a transmembrane dimer, but various additional forms can be generated by alternative splicing, differential glycosylation, chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan modification, and proteolytic shedding.

Scientific Data Images for Human M‑CSF Antibody
Cell Proliferation Induced by M‑CSF and Neutralization by Human M‑CSF Antibody.
Recombinant Human M‑CSF (Catalog # 216-MC) stimulates proliferation in the M‑NFS‑60 mouse myelogenous leukemia lymphoblast cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line). Proliferation elicited by Recombinant Human M‑CSF (2.5 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Human M‑CSF Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB216). The ND50 is typically 0.005-0.020 µg/mL.Applications for Human M‑CSF Antibody

Neutralization
Measured by its ability to neutralize M‑CSF-induced proliferation in the M‑NFS‑60 mouse myelogenous leukemia lymphoblast cell line. Halenbeck, R. et al. (1989) Biotechnology 7:710. The Neutralization Dose (ND50) is typically 0.005-0.020 µg/mL in the presence of 2.5 ng/mL Recombinant Human M‑CSF.
