Abstract excerpt
Retinoic acid (RA) induces terminal granulocytic differentiation of the HL-60 promyelocytic leukemia cell line as well as certain other human myeloid leukemias. Specific RA receptors that are members of the steroid-thyroid hormone superfamily of nuclear transcription factors have recently been identified. We developed an HL-60 subclone that was relatively resistant to RA-induced differentiation. Specific nuclear...
