Abstract
The possibility of therapeutic manipulation of normal regulatory molecules in leukemia has recently gained interest with the demonstration, both in vivo and in vitro, that terminal differentiation and leukemic stem cell suppression can be induced in several mouse myeloid leukemic cell lines by normal tissue products [2–4, 8, 9].
