title: The use of colony stimulating factors in clinical bone marrow transplantation.
abstract: The use of colony stimulating factors in clinical bone marrow transplantation is rapidly evolving. Both granulocyte colony stimulating factor and granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor have shown efficacy in bone marrow transplant patients in accelerating the rate of myeloid recovery. The use of colony stimulating factor primed peripheral blood progenitor cells appears to accelerate platelet recovery as well as myeloid recovery.
