Abstract
The binding, internalization and degradation rates of three different murine colony-stimulating factors (Multi-CSF or interleukin-3, GM-CSF and G-CSF) and their receptor turnover rates were determined for normal bone marrow cells and a number of different cell lines at 37 degrees C. The kinetic parameters were extracted from a curve-fitting analysis of the approach to steady-state of surface-bound and internalized CSFs by methods described by Myers et al. (1987). The primary binding kinetic constants (association and dissociation) for each CSF on different cell types were similar, suggesting a single type of receptor for each CSF. In all cases, CSF binding induced a faster rate of internaliz..
