ManualCOAMSDSGM-CSF (CSF2), secreted by diverse somatic cells, directs myeloid progenitor differentiation into granulocytes and monocytes that mature into tissue macrophages and dendritic cells to sustain anti-infective immune responses. Its active extracellular form is a glycosylated homodimer. This cytokine regulates Th1 immunity, angiogenesis, allergic and autoimmune inflammation, rendering it a promising therapeutic candidate. Clinically, it restores white blood cells post chemotherapy and exhibits favorable effects as an adjuvant in HIV vaccine trials.

| Target background | The megakaryocyte potentiating factor belongs to the mesothelin family. This family is comprised of several mammalian pre-pro-megakaryocyte potentiating factor precursor (MPF) or mesothelin proteins. Mesothelin is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-linked glycoprotein highly expressed in mesothelial cells, mesotheliomas, and ovarian cancer. Mesothelin/MSLN can be proteolytically cleaved into the following two chains by a furin-like convertase: Megakaryocyte-potentiating factor (MPF) and the cleaved form of mesothelin. Both MPF and the cleaved form of mesothelin are N-glycosylated. Mesothelin/MSLN can interacts with MUC16. The membrane-anchored forms of MSLN may play a role in cellular adhesion. MPF potentiates megakaryocyte colony formation in vitro. |
