  • Title: 5-Azacytidine increases the synthesis of embryonic hemoglobin (E2) in murine erythroleukemic cells.
    Author: Zucker RM, Decal DL, Whittington KB.
    Journal: FEBS Lett; 1983 Oct 17; 162(2):436-41. PubMed ID: 6195020.
    Abstract:
    The addition of 5-azacytidine to erythroleukemic cells which were induced to differentiate with DMSO or BA altered the expression of the hemoglobins. After the addition of 5-azacytidine there was an increase in hemoglobin synthesis especially in the embryonic E2 band. The beta-globin increased in synthesis after 5-azacytidine treatment. The level of hemoglobin synthesis in DMSO-induced cells is less than BA-induced cells while the effect of the 5-azacytidine stimulation was greater with DMSO induction than with BA induction.
