Title: Induction of differentiation of human leukemia cells by inhibitors of myosin light chain kinase. Author: Makishima M, Honma Y, Hozumi M, Sampi K, Hattori M, Motoyoshi K. Journal: FEBS Lett; 1991 Aug 05; 287(1-2):175-7. PubMed ID: 1879528. Abstract: Inhibitors of myosin light chain kinase, 1-(5-chloronaphthalene-1-sulfonyl)-1H-hexahydro-1,4-diazepine hydrochloride (ML-9) and 1-(5-iodonaphthalene-1-sulfonyl)-1H-hexahydro-1,4-diazepine hydrochloride (ML-7), induced Nitroblue tetrazolium reducing activity, lysozyme activity and morphological maturation of human monoblastic U937, THP-1 and promyelocytic HL-60 cells, but not of erythroblastic K562 cells. However, three analogs of ML-9, which are an inhibitor and an activator of protein kinase C, and a calmodulin antagonist, respectively, did not induce differentiation of the cells.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
