CSF2 signaling pathway, GM-CSF receptor signaling pathway, GM-CSF signaling pathway, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptor signaling pathway

Description

The series of molecular signals initiated by the binding of the cytokine granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) to its receptor on the surface of a target cell, and ending with the regulation of a downstream cellular process, e.g. transcription. GM-CSF binds to a heterodimer receptor (CSF2R) consisting of an alpha ligand-binding subunit, and a common beta subunit that is shared with other cytokine receptors.
