A novel aminosteroid of the 5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol family induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cells
TLDR
The findings suggest that RM reduces HL-60 cells survival through a caspase-dependent death receptor pathway.
Biological evaluation of a new family of aminosteroids that display a selective toxicity for various malignant cell lines
TLDR
Information gathered suggests that this family of aminosteroids induced growth inhibition cells by arresting the cell cycle and triggering apoptosis, and showed weak toxicity on normal cell lines.
Apicidin, a histone deacetylase inhibitor, induces differentiation of HL-60 cells.
Methylprednisolone Induce Terminal Differentiation in the U-937 Human Myelomonocytic Leukemia Cells
TLDR
It was observed that the significant terminal differentiation of U-937 cells occured after treatment with high dose (10-3 M) MP for 24 and 48 hrs, which points out that MP is a differentiation inducing agent for myelomonocytic leukemic cells and could be potential treating compound in other type ofLeukemic cell differentiation.
Effect of Indole‐3‐Acetic Acid Analogs on the Differentiation of HL‐60 Cells
TLDR
The results indicate that these compounds are effective cell differentiation and antiproliferation agents in combination with retinoic acid.
Étude de l'activité biologique et du mécanisme d'action de dérivés stéroïdiens à potentiel anticancéreux
TLDR
Information gathered suggests that this family of aminosteroids induced growth inhibition of HL-60 cells through arresting the cell cycle and triggering apoptosis, which encouraged us to further investigate the mechanisms underlying their selective-cytotoxicity.

Microtiter assay useful for screening of cell-differentiation agents.
TLDR
A microtiter assay that assesses differentiation of HL-60 cells on the basis of cytochrome c reduction is developed and confirmed by morphological assessment and by flow cytometric analysis of the DNA cell-cycle distribution and the cell-surface transferrin receptor.

TLDR
It is suggested that TPA may act as a tumor promoter by increasing cell multiplication in initiated cells, induce differentiation in some cells, or inhibit differentiation in other cells, depending on which molecules are being regulated in the TPA-treated cells.
Terminal differentiation of human promyelocytic leukemia cells induced by dimethyl sulfoxide and other polar compounds.
TLDR
The marked similarity in behavior of HL-60 cells and Friend cells in the presence of these inducing agents suggests that similar molecular mechanisms are involved in the induction of differentiation of these human myeloid and murine erythroid leukemic cells.
