Retinoic acid induces HL-60 cell differentiation via the upregulation of miR-663

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Differentiation of the acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell line HL-60 can be induced by all trans-retinoic acid (ATRA); however, the mechanism regulating this process has not been fully characterized.</p> <p>Methods</p&g...
