Abstract

We confirm here by immunoblotting that a cell line resistant to clonal inhibition from tumor necrosis factor (K562) expresses high levels of HSP 70, whereas two sensitive cell lines (HL60 blasts and EM3) express low levels. When sensitive cell lines are exposed to tumor necrosis factor, HSP 70 is not generally induced; when tumor necrosis factor is removed, however, HSP 70 is transiently induced. In five bone marrow samples from patients, generally low levels of HSP 70 were detected.
