Interaction Between Mevalonate Pathway and Retinoic Acid-Induced Differentiation

All trans retinoic acid (ATRA) is a potent inducer of differentiation of HL-60 cell line. The pretreatment of the cells by compactin, a competitive inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl (HMG) CoA reductase, during 24 hours, enhances the ATRA-induced cell differentiation. At 50 nM, the percentage o...
