Effect of protein kinase inhibitors on the proliferation of leukemic cells stimulated by granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor or interleukin-3.

The effects of the inhibitor for protein kinase A or C, or tyrosine kinase (H-8, staurosporine, or genistein, respectively) on the proliferation of leukemic and normal bone marrow cells stimulated by granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), or interleukin-3 (IL-3) were studied using the MTT assay
