Research

Role of Hematopoietic Factors in Normal Hematopoietic Cell Reconstitution
Dr. Gabrilove is a pioneer in the development of our understanding of the biology of hematopoietic growth factors and their clinical utility in promoting hematopoietic reconstitution. She is a co-inventor on the patent describing the initial isolation and characterization of human granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), which is used in the treatment of chemotherapy induced myelosuppression and severe chronic neutropenia. Her initial studies also demonstrated the ability of G-CSF to mobilize progenitor cells into the peripheral blood (PBPC). This observation has revolutionized the way in which we perform marrow transplantation today, which is conducted almost exclusively utilizing G-CSF mobilized PBPC. This laboratory is currently investigating:

  1. the development of novel therapeutic strategies in CLL; and
  2. the role of arsenicals as experimental therapeutics to induce apoptosis.
