    Granulocyte
    Granulocyte: A type of white blood cell filled with microscopic granules that are little sacs containing enzymes, compounds that digest microorganisms. Granulocytes are part of the innate immune system and have somewhat nonspecific, broad-based activity. They do not respond exclusively to specific antigens, as do B-cells and T-cells. Neutrophils, e ...

    granulocyte
    Leucocyte with conspicuous cytoplasmic granules. In humans the granulocytes are also classified as polymorphonuclear leucocytes and are subdivided according to the staining properties of the granules into eosinophils, basophils and neutrophils (using a Romanovsky type stain); some invertebrate blood cells are also referred to, not very helpfully, as granulocytes.

    Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor
    `Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor` (`G-CSF` or `GCSF`) is a hormone. It is a glycoprotein, growth factor or cytokine produced by a number of different tissues to stimulate the bone marrow to produce granulocytes and stem cells. G-CSF then stimulates the bone marrow to pulse them out of the marrow into the blood. It also stimulates the survival, proliferation, differentiation, and function of neutrophil precursors and mature neutrophils. G-C...

    Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor receptor
    The `granulocyte colony-stimulating factor receptor`, abbreviated `G-CSF-R` is a cell-surface receptor for the granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). The granulocyte colony-stimulating factor receptor is present on precursor cells in the bone marrow, and, in response to stimulation by G-CSF, initiates cell proliferation and differentiation into mature neutrophilic granulocytes and macrophages. The G-CSF-R is a transmembrane receptor that...
