Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is produced in large quantities by synoviocytes in the inflamed arthritic joint and is known to be a neutrophil activator. Neutrophils predominate during acute flares of arthritis and are important mediators of cartilage destruction. In this

## Abstract Myelosuppression is a common sequelae of radiotherapy, occasionally delaying the completion of treatment. In this report, we describe successful reversal of radiationβinduced neutropenia in a child receiving craniospinal irradiation by granulocyte colonystimulating factor (GβCSF). We su
Background: Sargramostim, granulocyte macrophage colonystimulating factor (GM-CSF), a hematopoietic growth factor, stimulates cells of the intestinal innate immune system. Clinical trials show that sargramostim induces clinical response and remission in patients with active Crohn's disease. To study
Background. Leukocytosis without infection in patients with malignancies is known as the leukemoid reaction. The mechanisms involved in this phenomenon remain uncertain. Methods. We describe the clinical, biochemical and immunohistochemical findings in a patient with recurrent tongue carcinoma acco
