## Abstract We studied the effects of cyclosporin A (CsA) on the erythroid differentiation of human erythroid leukemia cell line K562. After K562 was treated with CsA for 4 days, the percentage of hemoglobinized cells was increased by 3.3 times. Because it was reported p38 MAPK (p38) and ERK are in

## Abstract STI571 is a specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor of Abl kinase. It was previously reported that STI571 induced hemoglobin synthesis in the chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) cell line K562. However, its mechanisms remain unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that STI571 induced the phos
The signaling mechanisms leading to phorbol ester myristate (PMA)-induced differentiation of HL-60 cells to the macrophagelike phenotype were investigated by using different protein kinase inhibitors. The protein kinase C inhibitor Ro 31-8220 specifically blocks PMA-induced differentiation, activati
Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases have been implicated as important mediators of the inflammatory response. Here we report that c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK), extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), and p38 MAP kinase activities are reprogrammed during the IL-6 induced macrophage-like
