title: [Effects of RhG-CSF on apoptosis of HL-60 cell induced by cytarabine].
abstract: To investigate the effects of rhG-CSF on apoptosis of HL-60 cell induced by cytarabine (Ara-C), HL-60 cell were cultured with Ara-C, with or without rhG-CSF, and the changes of HL-60 cells were detected by morphology, including Wright's and acridine orange (AO) and ethidium bromide (EB) staining, and MTT assay. The results showed that comparing with Ara-C group, the apoptosis level of rhG-CSF + Ara-C group was enhanced (P < 0.01), and the OD value of MTT assay declined (P < 0.01). It is concluded that rhG-CSF can induce the apoptosis of HL-60 cells and enhance the apoptosis induced by Ara-C.
