“…Apart from its expression on cells of hematopoietic origin (macrophages, osteoclasts, dendritic cells, and their precursors), the CSF-1R is also expressed on nonhematopoietic cells (reviewed in Chitu, Caescu, et al, 2015; Chitu, Gokhan, Nandi, Mehler, & Stanley, 2016; Chitu & Stanley, 2006), including Paneth cells (PC) (Huynh et al, 2009), epithelial intestinal cells of the colon (Huynh et al, 2013), renal proximal tubule epithelial cells (Menke et al, 2009), neural progenitor cells (NPCs; Nandi et al, 2012), and several subpopulations of neurons (Luo et al, 2013; Nandi et al, 2012; Wang, Berezovska, & Fedoroff, 1999), oocytes, preimplantation embryos, decidual, and trophoblastic cells (Arceci, Pampfer, & Pollard, 1992; Arceci, Shanahan, Stanley, & Pollard, 1989; Pampfer, Arceci, & Pollard, 1991; Regenstreif & Rossant, 1989; Sasmono et al, 2003). In man, two separate CSF1R promoters drive expression in myeloid cells and cells of the trophoblast (Visvader & Verma, 1989).…”
