Function |
Stimulates the proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic precursor cells from various lineages, including erythrocytes, lymphocytes, granulocytes and macrophages. Acts synergistically with other cytokines, including IL-3, GCSF, GMCSF and FLT3 ligand. Suppresses SCF-stimulated erythrocyte proliferation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11920266}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11803813}. Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11803813}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in skeletal tissues including bone marrow, chondrocytes, primary ossification center-associated cells, the perichondrium and periosteum. Lower levels of expression were detected in spleen, thymus, appendix and fetal liver. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11803813, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11920266, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9442024, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9705843}.
