ABSTRACT

Introduction: Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor is a cytocine that stimulates differentiation of hematopoyetic stem cells. Recently it has been observed that it is produced in follicular fluid and plays an important role in human follicular maturation, embryo development, cleavage and implantation.
Objective: To make a review of literature to clarify the role and importance of G-CSF in human reproduction.
Material and methods: Using PubMed and MedlinePlus^® we searched for published articles related to human embryology containing in the title the phrase granulocyte colony-stimulating factor.
Conclusions: G-CSF seems to be a promising factor involved in reproduction, further studies are needed to clarify its role and importance.
