title: [The effects of retinoic acid and recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor on alkaline phosphatase activity of HL-60 cells].
abstract: We examined alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in the HL-60 cell induced by retinoic acid (RA) and recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF). rhG-CSF induced a small but significant increase of NBT-reducing ability and ALP activity of the HL-60 cells. Among various inducers of cell differentiation, 1,25(OH)2D3 and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) caused the increase of the NBT-reducing ability and the suppression of ALP activity induced by rhG-CSF, while RA enhanced both of them. Protein kinase C inhibitors (H-7 and staurosporine) but not a protein kinase A inhibitor (HA1004) significantly suppressed the ALP activity induced by the simultaneous treatment with RA and rhG-CSF.
