46
Erythroidpoeitin isfound in the liver and is induced by what kind conditions in the body?
hypoxia and heart/lung diseases.
47
G-CSF is found in endothelial cells It is induced by what response?
inflammatory response.
48
GM-CSF has what functions?
it supports erythroid cell lineage and stimulates megakaryocyte progenitors.GM
49
Thrombopoietin is found in the liver induced by what response?
inflammatory response;
50
Where are hematopoietic growth factors and cytokines produced?
the marrow, fibroblasts and stromal cells.
51
What are the major groups of hemaopoietic growth factors?
colony stimulating factors, erythropoietin/thrombopoietin and cytokines.
52
GM-CSF is often used in chemotherapy. What does GM-CSF stimulate?
granulocytopoiesis and monocytopoeisis
53
What does monocyte colony stimulating factor do?
commits CFU-GM to the monocytic pathway.
54
When is erythropoietin produced?
When the kidneys have a decreased oxygen saturation. If too much is released, polycythemia can occur.
55
Where is thrombopoietin produced?
the kidney and liver. It does not have any therapeutic use.
56
What do cytokines do?
mediates positive and negative effects of apaprotis, proliferation and differentiation; it also starts some signaling pathways.
57
What do chemoines do?
regulate blood cell trafficking, act as positive/negative feedback regulators.
