Erythroid differentiation of clonal Rauscher erythroleukemia cells in response to erythropoietin or dimethyl sulfoxide.
Clonal lines of Rauscher erythroleukemia cells exhibited selective responses to two inducers of differentiation, erythropoietin and dimethyl sulfoxide. There were substantial quantitiative differences between clones that reponded to both inducers. Several clones differentiated only in response to erythropoietin. Erythropoietin stimulated cell proliferation and differentiation whereas dimethyl sulfoxide inhibited proliferation, suggesting dissimilar modes of action.
