Friend leukemia cells: relationship between differentiation, clonogenicity and malignancy. 1978

H D Preisler, and G Christoff, and P Reese, and P Pavelic, and Y Rustum

Friend leukemia cells were cultured in vitro in the presence or absence of agents which induce erythroid differentiation. The cultures were harvested and the degree of differentiation determined. Clonogenicity of the cells in vitro and malignancy in vivo were determined as well. There was an inverse exponential relationship between the degree of differentiation and the clonogenicity of the culture. Differentiation was also associated with a modest decline in malignancy. Of interest was the observation that bromodeoxyuridine inhibited the biochemical manifestations of erythroid differentiation, but did not prevent the decline in clonogenicity which accompanied differentiation.

D004121 Dimethyl Sulfoxide A highly polar organic liquid, that is used widely as a chemical solvent. Because of its ability to penetrate biological membranes, it is used as a vehicle for topical application of pharmaceuticals. It is also used to protect tissue during CRYOPRESERVATION. Dimethyl sulfoxide shows a range of pharmacological activity including analgesia and anti-inflammation.
