SUMÁRIO

Os factores de crescimento hematopoiético (FCH) são glicoproteinas que regulam a proliferação e diferenciação das células sanguíneas. Com o objectivo de reduzir a morbilidade, melhorar a qualidade de vida e as taxas de sobrevivência dos doentes submetidos a terapêuticas mielossupressoras, tern sido desenvolvida uma intensa investigação clínica e experimental na tentativa de evitar a degradação dos parâmetros hematológicos.

Apresenta-se oeste artigo uma breve revisão sobre os FCH: a sua origem endógena, classificação, mecanismos de acção, potencial uso na prática clínica, em particular no carcinoma brônquico, doenças linfoproliferativas e outras doenças hematológicas, SIDA e insuficiêncla renal crónica. É dado maior relevo a três FCH: Eritropoietina (EPO), Factor estimulante das colónias de granulocitos (G-CSF) e Factor estimulante das colónias de granulocitos e macrófagos (GM-CSF). Referem-se finalmente a posologia, os efeitos adversos e as indicações internacionalmente aceites para o uso dos FCH na prática clínica.

SUMMARY

Hematopoietic growth factors (HGF) are glycoproteins that control the proliferation and differentiation of blood cells. In the aim to reduce morbiedity, improve survival and quality of life in patients submitted to mielossupressive therapies, intensive clinical and experimental research has been undertaken in an attempt to avoid the degradation of hematologic parameters.

We present a brief review of HGF, describing their endogenous production, classification and mechanisms of action, as well as their potential clinical indications, namely in bronchial carcinoma, lymphoproliferative disorders and other hematological diseases, AIDS and cronic renal failure.

Some of these factors are discussed in detail: Erythropoietin (EPO), Granulocyte colony – stimulating factor (G-CSF), and Granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). We discuss the standard doses, side effects and the international accepted indications of its use in clinical practice.

Key-words:
Hematopoietic cell growth factors
erythropoietin
