dimethyl sulfide has been researched along with Leukemia in 1 studies

dimethyl sulfide: structure
dimethyl sulfide : A methyl sulfide in which the sulfur atom is substituted by two methyl groups. It is produced naturally by some marine algae.
methyl sulfide : Any aliphatic sulfide in which at least one of the organyl groups attached to the sulfur is a methyl group.

Leukemia: A progressive, malignant disease of the blood-forming organs, characterized by distorted proliferation and development of leukocytes and their precursors in the blood and bone marrow. Leukemias were originally termed acute or chronic based on life expectancy but now are classified according to cellular maturity. Acute leukemias consist of predominately immature cells; chronic leukemias are composed of more mature cells. (From The Merck Manual, 2006)

" To provide a better understanding of the biological function of dimethyl sulfides, dimethyl monosulfide (Me(2)S), dimethyl disulfide (Me(2)S(2)), dimethyl trisulfide (Me(2)S(3)) and dimethyl tetrasulfide (Me(2)S(4)) were used as experimental materials to investigate their effects on apoptosis induction in human leukemia Jurkat cells and HL-60 cells."7.74Effect of dimethyl sulfides on the induction of apoptosis in human leukemia Jurkat cells and HL-60 cells.
