MeSH Heading: Hematopoietic Cell Growth Factors
Tree Number(s): D12.644.276.374.410; D12.776.467.374.410; D23.529.374.410
Unique ID: D016298
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D016298
Scope Note: These growth factors comprise a family of hematopoietic regulators with biological specificities defined by their ability to support proliferation and differentiation of blood cells of different lineages. ERYTHROPOIETIN and the COLONY-STIMULATING FACTORS belong to this family. Some of these factors have been studied and used in the treatment of chemotherapy-induced neutropenia, myelodysplastic syndromes, and bone marrow failure syndromes.
