Aoki, S. et al.

Differentiation in chronic myelogenous leukemia cell K562 by spongean sesterterpene.

Scalarane-type sesterterpenes, PHC-1-PHC-7, which have been isolated from a marine sponge, increased hemoglobin production in human chronic myelogenous leukemia cell line K562 at the concentration of 0.1-5 microg/ml. PHC-1, the major constituent, induced the expression of glycophorin A and the enucleation for K562 cells. These sesterterpenes were found to induce erythroid differentiation in K562 cells. In addition, PHC-1 induced G1 arrest of the cell cycle of K562 cells.[1]
