RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D018922
Annotation: almost always NIM with no subheadings; check HUMAN; do not routinely add LEUKEMIA, PROMYELOCYTIC, ACUTE
Scope Note: A promyelocytic cell line derived from a patient with ACUTE PROMYELOCYTIC LEUKEMIA. HL-60 cells lack specific markers for LYMPHOID CELLS but express surface receptors for FC FRAGMENTS and COMPLEMENT SYSTEM PROTEINS. They also exhibit phagocytic activity and responsiveness to chemotactic stimuli. (From Hay et al., American Type Culture Collection, 7th ed, pp127-8)
