Zusammenfassung:Disclosed are compositions for stimulating the growth, proliferation, differentiation and/or mobilization of stem and/or progenitor cells. The antibodies disclosed activate the CD163 hemoglobin scavenger receptor signal transduction pathway. This is useful in stimulating hematopoiesis and in treating a wide range of conditions including cytopenias, anemias and for use in preparing cells for transplantation.
