Cells were seeded at 0.2 × 106 cells/mL with PMA (5 nmol/L), or at 0.4 × 106/mL with DMSO (1.3%). Two HL-60neo and four HL-60HOX-B8 cell lines were analyzed, and data from representative clones is shown.
Cell number and morphology were determined after 3 days for untreated cells and cells treated with PMA and after 5 days for cells treated with DMSO. NSE and NBT reduction were determined after 5 days in culture, and positive cells contain red (NSE) or blue (NBT) granules in the cytoplasm. Results represent the mean of three independent determinations with standard deviations up to 15% (ie, 11% ± 1.6%).
