Normal functional characteristics of cultured human promyelocytic leukemia cells (HL-60) after induction of differentiation by dimethylsulfoxide
نویسندگان
چکیده
The HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cell line can be induced to terminally differentiate to mature myeloid cells sharing a number of functional characteristics with normal granulocytes including response to chemoattractants, development of complement receptors, phagocytosis, superoxide production, and nitroblue tetrazolium dye reduction. Hence the Me2SO-induced HL-60 cells provide a unique in vitro model for studying various important aspects of human myeloid cell differentiation.

Epigenetic effects of decitabine on acute lymphoblastic and acute promyelocytic leukemia cells
Background: Decitabine (5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine, DAC) is a deoxycytidine analog currently used as an effective drug against myelodysplastic syndromes and acute myeloid leukemia. Although various studies have pointed out the epigenetic effects of this drug, its epigenetic mechanisms in different leukemic cell lines are not specified. In this lab trial study, possible epigenetic effects of decitab...
متن کاملDifferentiation-linked expression of cell surface markers on HL-60 leukemic cells.
The cell surface antigenic phenotype of HL-60, a human acute promyelocytic leukemia cell line, has been analyzed before and after maturation induction with dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) using a panel of markers including a "library" of monoclonal antibodies and "conventional" antisera in conjunction with the fluorescene-activated cell sorter. HL-60 cells express granulocyte and "leukocyte" different...
متن کاملA membrane-bound lectin responsive to monocytic maturation in the promyelocytic leukemia cell line HL-60.
A novel mammalian lectin activity responsive to monocytic differentiation is described in the human promyelocytic leukemia cell line HL-60. Glycoprotein binding indicates that the lectin recognizes both N-acetylneuraminic acid and galactose-terminating biantennary oligosaccharide structures. Lectin activity is independent of calcium and appears to reside in a Mr 17,000 intracellular membrane pr...
متن کاملGnidilatimonoein from Daphne mucronata induced differentiation and apoptosis in leukemia cell lines
Among various treatments, plants play a crucial role in cancer chemotherapy. Base on literature data, different species of the thymeleaeceae family have been found to be good sources for anticancer agents. Therefore, our laboratory has initiated a research project on evaluating the anticancer properties of the Iranian medical plant, Daphne mucronata (Thymeleaeceae). Gnidilatimonoein is a new di...
