M-CSF, also known as CSF-1, is a four-alpha -helical-bundle cytokine that is the primary regulator of macrophage survival, proliferation and differentiation (1-3). M-CSF is also essential for the survival and proliferation of osteoclast progenitors (1, 4). M-CSF also primes and enhances macrophage killing of tumor cells and microorganisms, regulates the release of cytokines and other inflammatory modulators from macrophages, and stimulates pinocytosis (2, 3). M-CSF increases during pregnancy to support implantation and growth of the decidua and placenta (5). Sources of M-CSF include fibroblasts, activated macrophages, endometrial secretory epithelium, bone marrow stromal cells, and activated endothelial cells (1-5). The M-CSF receptor (c-fms) transduces its pleotropic effects and mediates its endocytosis. M-CSF mRNAs of various sizes occur (3-9). Full length mouse M-CSF transcripts encode a 520 amino acid (aa) type I transmembrane (TM) protein with a 462 aa extracellular region, a 21 aa TM domain, and a 37 aa cytoplasmic tail that forms a 140 kDa covalent dimer. Differential processing produces two proteolytically cleaved, secreted dimers. One is an N- and O-glycosylated 86 kDa dimer, while the other is modified by both glycosylation and chondroitin-sulfate proteoglycan (PG) to generate a 200 kDa subunit. Although PG-modified M-CSF can circulate, it may be immobilized by attachment to type V collagen (8). Shorter transcripts encode M-CSF that lacks cleavage and PG sites and produces an N-glycosylated 68 kDa TM dimer and a slowly produced 44 kDa secreted dimer (7). Although forms may vary in activity and half-life, all contain the N-terminal 150 aa portion that is necessary and sufficient for interaction with the M-CSF receptor (10, 11). The first 229 aa of mature mouse M-CSF shares 87%, 83%, 82%, and 81% aa identity with corresponding regions of rat, dog, cow, and human M-CSF, respectively (12, 13). Human M-CSF is active in the mouse, but mouse M-CSF is reported to be species-specific.

Cell Proliferation Induced by M‑CSF and Neutralization by Mouse M‑CSF Antibody.
Recombinant Mouse M-CSF (Catalog # 416-ML) stimulates proliferation in the M-NFS-60 mouse myelogenous luekemia lymphoblast cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line). Proliferation elicited by Recombinant Mouse M-CSF (10 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Mouse M-CSF Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB4161). The ND50 is typically 3-12 µg/mL.Detection of Mouse M-CSF by Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence
Injury-induced SSEA-1 positive cells were regulated by topical application of M-CSF or M-CSF neutralizing antibody.Skin wounds in mice were treated by either PBS control (top panels) or topical application of recombinant M-CSF protein (middle panels) or topical application of M-CSF neutralizing antibody for 6 days. This figure showed a representative skin section from 6 wounds in each group, stained with SSEA-1 (red color). DAPI (blue) was used for cell nucleus staining. Scale bars, 100 μm.

SSEA-1 positive cells are also SSEA-3 positive and express M-CSF receptor.(A) Injured skin sections were stained with SSEA-1 (red color) and SSEA-3 (green color) antibodies. IgG was used for a negative staining control. DAPI (blue) was used for cell nucleus staining. Scale bars, 50 μm. (B) Injured skin sections were stained with SSEA-1 (green color) and M-CSF receptor (red color) antibodies. DAPI (blue) was used for cell nucleus staining. Scale bars, 50 μm.
