Background

Stem Cell Factor (SCF) is a hematopoietic growth factor that exerts its activity at the early stages of hematopoiesis. SCF stimulates the proliferation of myeloid; erythroid; and lymphoid progenitors in bone marrow cultures and has been shown to act synergistically with colony stimulating factors.
