Abstract
Iron deprivation of HL‐60 cells with deferoxamine B mesylate (DFO) induced apoptosis. DNA fragmentation became apparent with 10−6 M DFO after 48 h treatment. The apoptosis peak according to the DNA histogram on flow cytometory and typical nuclear collapse and were observed microscopically after 48 h treatment with 10−4 M DFO. Cells treated with 10−4 M DFO for as little as 24 h were shown to be committed to apoptosis, as chromatin condensation progressed gradually thereafter.Keywords
