“…This and other colonyinducing proteins were then renamed macrophage and granulocyte inducers (MGI) (Landau and Sachs, 1971) and MGI-type 1(MGI-1). They are now called colonystimulating factors (CSF) (reviewed in Metcalf, 1985;Sachs, 1987b) and one protein is called interleukin-3 (IL-3) (Ihle et al, 1982). Of these four CSFs, one (M-CSF), induces the development of clones with macrophages, another (G-CSF), clones with granulocytes, the third (GM-CSF), clones with granulocytes, macrophages, or both macrophages and granulocytes, and the fourth (IL-3), clones with macrophages, granulocytes, eosinophils, mast cells, erythroid cells, or megakaryocytes.…”
