  • In one report, ALDH1A1 protein was not detected by Western blot, but enzyme activity was detected using flow cytometry and a fluorescent aldehyde substrate [ 5 ] . In a second study, ALDH1A1 protein was detected using an ELISA assay and activity was detected using aldophosphamide as substrate [ 31 ] . In these two studies, designed to look at the relationship of ALDH1A1 activity to antitumor drug resistance, the levels of ALDH1A1 were low in HL-60 compared to other cell types, corresponding to the sensitivity of HL-60 cells to oxazaphosphorines.

  • Therefore, we chose the HL-60 cell line to assess the role of ALDH1A1 in the oxidation of retinal.

  • Expression of ALDH1A2 activity in HL-60 cells has not been reported.

  • The HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cell line responds in culture to sub-micromolar concentrations of retinoic acid ( all-trans and 13-cis ) by undergoing terminal differentiation to a granulocytic cell with the ability to phagocytose and reduce nitroblue tetrazolium [ 28 ] . The response to retinoic acid in HL-60 cells is dependent on the expression of the retinoic acid receptor RAR α [ 29 ] . The use of all-trans retinoic acid in differentiation therapy for patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia has resulted in prolonged, complete remissions when combined with cytotoxic chemotherapy, and may provide complete, long-term remissions as a single agent [ 30 ] .

  • Precursor HL-60 cells are spherical and grow in suspension, whereas the differentiated macrophage-like cells become adherent and spread.
