Final answer:

Macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) utilizes the cytokine receptors family.

Step-by-step explanation:

Macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) utilizes the cytokine receptors family. Cytokines are glycoproteins that act locally as autocrine or paracrine factors, stimulating the proliferation of progenitor cells and helping to stimulate both nonspecific and specific resistance to disease. There are two major subtypes of cytokines, colony-stimulating factors and interleukins.
