Differentiation induction of murine erythroleukemia cells by butylated hydroxytoluene.
Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) which is widely used as an anti-oxidant in food has been found to induce the differentiation of murine erythroleukemia cells. BHT also amplifies the differentiation inducing activity of DMSO.
