Colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF1) regulates the proliferation and differentiation of myelomonocytic cells. Microglial cells of CSF1-deficient mice are reduced in number and are functionally impaired. CSF1-deficient mice exhibit subtle neurodevelopmental defects, enhanced neuronal vulnerability. Moreover, it has been reported that these mice may have amyloid-plaque-like depositions in the brain at an early age. The human CSF1 gene maps to chromosome 1p21-p13, a region previously linked to Alzheimer's disease (AD). Thus, CSF1 is a functional and positional candidate gene for AD.
