Cells were grown in the presence of 10−6 mol/L ATRA or 10−8 mol/L RAR agonists (AM580 = RARα agonist; CD2019 = RARβ agonist; CD437 = RARγ agonist) or the vehicle (control) for 96 hours. Washed cells were analyzed for NBT reduction activity and surface-marker CD11b and CD33 expression. Results are mean ± SD of five experiments (determinations in duplicate).
