ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To elucidate the molecular mechanism of realgar-induced apoptosis and differentiation of acute promyelocytic leukemia(APL) cell line NB4.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The response of NB4 cells to realgar was explored with a cDNA microarray representing 1003 different human genes.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>The analysis of gene expression profiles indicated that 9 genes were up-regulated and 37 genes were down-regulated. Among the 9 up-regulated genes, 2 genes were involved in proteasome degradation pathway.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>PSMC2, PSMD1 and ITGB1 genes may play a role in the apoptosis and differentiation of NB4 cells.</p>
