Zhao et al. found significantly lower expression of hematopoietic-supporting cytokines, including stem cell factor (SCF), granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), in MDS-derived BM-MSCs compared to normal controls [107]. The gene discussed is CSF3; the disease is myelodysplastic syndrome.
