Friend erythroleukemia cells (FELC) served as a model system for cell differentiation because these cells can be triggered to differentiate by a variety of chemical agents. Treatment with the classical inducer of differentiation, hexamethylene bisacetamide (HMBA), stimulated superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, which increased in parallel with HMBA-induced differentiation. Furthermore, FELC were shown to differentiate in response to the addition of liposomes containing SOD. Oxidative treatment with liposomes containing D-amino acid oxidase or xanthine oxidase, cumene peroxide, or potassium superoxide also induced differentiation, whereas antioxidants such as alpha-tocopherol, butylated hydroxytoluene, or beta-carotene did not induce differentiation. Also, HMBA induction of differentiation was suppressed by treatment with antioxidants.
