1 | Studies were carried out to determine whether the combination of IL-1 + M-CSF, similar to the effect of these cytokines on neutropenia, was able to reduce the duration of thrombocytopenia in the 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-myelosuppressed mouse. | Fluorouracil | interleukin 1 complex | Mus musculus |
2 | Studies were carried out to determine whether the combination of IL-1 + M-CSF, similar to the effect of these cytokines on neutropenia, was able to reduce the duration of thrombocytopenia in the 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-myelosuppressed mouse. | Fluorouracil | interleukin 1 complex | Mus musculus |
3 | Furthermore, the data presented are consistent with the hypothesis that IL-1 + M-CSF initially acts on a multilineage, 5-FU-resistant target cell and that IL-6 (and possibly IL-3 and GM-CSF) serves as a secondary cytokine further to enhance platelet production during rebound thrombopoiesis in the 5-FU-treated mouse. | Fluorouracil | interleukin 1 complex | Mus musculus |
