Some characteristics of U-937 and HL-60 leukemia cell lines treated with a fraction of non-dialyzable extract of spinach are reported. The absorbed fraction separated by a DEAE-Tyopearl 650 column chromatography of the non-dialyzable extract induced NBT reducing activity of U-937 and HL-60 cells. This fraction also induced substrate adhesion of U-937 cells, and the non-specific esterase activity of HL-60 cells. The expression of CD11b, CD11c and CD36 antigens on the U-937 cell surface was enhanced by the treatment with the fraction, whereas CD24 antigen was not. The treatment of HL-60 cells with the fraction also induced the expression of CD11b and CD11c antigens, but CD24 and CD36 were not expressed. These results indicated that the non-dialyzable extract of spinach induced immature differentiation of U-937 and HL-60 cells into monocyte/macrophages.
