## Abstract The addition of a chemical inducer, such as dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), to cultures of mouse Friend erythroleukemic cells results in the induction of a number of late erythroid events, including the accumulation of globin mRNA, the induction of hemoglobin synthesis, the appearance of eryt

β¦ Synopsis
Treatment of Friend erythroleukemia cells with several different chemical agents causes an early decrease in the 86 Rb+ influx mediated by Na+/K+ adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase). These agents, which induce Friend cells t o differentiate, include dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), ouabain, hypoxanthine, and actinomycin D. The magnitude of the early decrease in 86 Rb' influx correlates with the proportion of cells in cultures of inducible Friend cell clones which later go o n to synthesize hemoglobin. Compounds which do not incude differentiation in these cells, such as xanthine, exogenous hematin, and erythropoietin, do not cause a change in 86 Rb+ influx. A change in the intracellular K+ ion concentration does not occur during induction by DMSO because, although there is a decrease in K+ content per cell soon after induction, there is a parallel decrease in cell volume. These results and previous observations from this laboratory are discussed in terms of the posible involvement of the Na+/K+ ATPase in Friend cell differentiation.
