โฆ Synopsis
In the past year, the most exciting development in the field of hematopoietic growth factors has been the identification of the platelet-inducing factor Mpl ligand. Administration of recombinant Mpl ligand may alleviate the potential for hemorrhagic complications following cancer therapies. Stem cell factor continues to be studied clinically in the mobilization of peripheral blood cells for transplantation.

Soluble steel factor (SF) is a potent stimulator of hematopoietic progenitor cell proliferation in vitro, and cytokine combinations that include SF can support extensive expansions of hematopoietic cells. Recently, we showed that very primitive progenitor cells from normal human bone marrow require
The present study was undertaken to define parameters that may limit the cytokine-mediated expansion of primitive hematopoietic cells in stirred suspension cultures of normal human marrow cells. In a first series of experiments, parallel measurements of the rate and extent of progenitor expansion an

The objective was to evaluate the impact of pH and NaCl content on aggregation, particle formation, and solubility of a hydrophobic recombinant human cytokine in formulations with human serum albumin (HSA) as stabilizing excipient. While cytokine-HSA formulations were stable at physiological pH, a t
