Abstract: Tumor necrosis factor‐a (TNF‐α), interferon‐γ (IFN‐7), and interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), but not TNF‐β, can induce the in vitro differentiation of the neuroblastoma cell line N103 in a dose‐dependent manner. Differentiation of N103 was accompanied by the arrest of cell growth and neurite formation. The induction of neuroblastoma cell differentiation by TNF‐α and IFN‐γ can be specifically inhibited by a nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor, l‐NG‐monomethylarginine. In contrast, the differentiation of N103 cells by IL‐6 was not affected by l‐NG‐monomethylarginine. These results indicate that TNF‐α and IFN‐γ, but not IL‐6, induce the differentiation of neuroblastoma cells via NO. This is confirmed by the finding that the culture super‐ natants of N103 cells induced by TNF‐α and IFN‐γ, but not that by IL‐6, contained high levels of NO2−, the production of which was inhibited by l‐NG‐monomethylarginine. Furthermore, the differentiation of N103 cells can be induced directly in a dose‐dependent manner by the addition of nitroprusside, a generator of NO, into the culture medium. These data therefore indicate that NO may be an important mediator in the induction of neuronal cell differentiation by certain cytokines such as TNF‐α and IFN‐γ and that neuronal cells, in addition to the macrophagelike brain cells, can be induced by immunological stimuli to produce large quantities of NO.
