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:

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

    Physicians and scientists on the faculty of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai often interact with pharmaceutical, device, biotechnology companies, and other outside entities to improve patient care, develop new therapies and achieve scientific breakthroughs. In order to promote an ethical and transparent environment for conducting research, providing clinical care and teaching, Mount Sinai requires that salaried faculty inform the School of their outside financial relationships.
