Question: what is the difference between g csf and gm csf?
Answer: G-CSF induces the appearance of colonies containing only granulocytes, while GM-CSF gave colonies containing both granulocytes and macrophages. Generation of G-CSF (genomic nomenclature: Csf3) and G-CSF Receptor (Csf3r) knockout mice confirmed that G-CSF critically drives granulopoiesis(7).
