OBJECTIVE To investigate the differentiation induction effect of 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 on leukemia cell line HL-60 and its mechanisms. METHODS The changes of proliferation rate and differentiation in HL-60 cells treated with 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 were observed by MTT test, surface marker analysis and NBT reduction reaction, the effects on cell cycle and nm23 gene expression by flow cytometry and RT-PCR. RESULTS After exposing to 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3, the proliferation was inhibited and the cells were induced to differentiate towards more mature monocytes. During differentiation, HL-60 cells were arrested in G1 phase and the expression of nm23 gene was down regulated. CONCLUSIONS 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 could induce differentiation of HL-60 cells, this effect might be related to the down regulation of nm23 gene expression.

D002117	Calcitriol	The physiologically active form of vitamin D. It is formed primarily in the kidney by enzymatic hydroxylation of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (CALCIFEDIOL). Its production is stimulated by low blood calcium levels and parathyroid hormone. Calcitriol increases intestinal absorption of calcium and phosphorus, and in concert with parathyroid hormone increases bone resorption.	1 alpha,25-Dihydroxycholecalciferol,1 alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3,1, 25-(OH)2D3,1,25(OH)2D3,1,25-Dihydroxycholecalciferol,1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3,1 alpha, 25-dihydroxy-20-epi-Vitamin D3,1,25(OH)2-20epi-D3,1,25-dihydroxy-20-epi-Vitamin D3,20-epi-1alpha,25-dihydroxycholecaliferol,Bocatriol,Calcijex,Calcitriol KyraMed,Calcitriol-Nefro,Decostriol,MC-1288,MC1288,Osteotriol,Renatriol,Rocaltrol,Silkis,Sitriol,Soltriol,Tirocal,1 alpha,25 Dihydroxyvitamin D3,1,25 Dihydroxycholecalciferol,1,25 Dihydroxyvitamin D3,1,25 dihydroxy 20 epi Vitamin D3,Calcitriol Nefro,D3, 1 alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin,D3, 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin,D3, 1,25-dihydroxy-20-epi-Vitamin,KyraMed, Calcitriol,MC 1288

D018922	HL-60 Cells	A promyelocytic cell line derived from a patient with ACUTE PROMYELOCYTIC LEUKEMIA. HL-60 cells lack specific markers for LYMPHOID CELLS but express surface receptors for FC FRAGMENTS and COMPLEMENT SYSTEM PROTEINS. They also exhibit phagocytic activity and responsiveness to chemotactic stimuli.
