niacin and Granulocytic Leukemia, Chronic

niacin has been researched along with Granulocytic Leukemia, Chronic in 1 studies

Niacin: A water-soluble vitamin of the B complex occurring in various animal and plant tissues. It is required by the body for the formation of coenzymes NAD and NADP. It has PELLAGRA-curative, vasodilating, and antilipemic properties.
vitamin B3 : Any member of a group of vitamers that belong to the chemical structural class called pyridines that exhibit biological activity against vitamin B3 deficiency. Vitamin B3 deficiency causes a condition known as pellagra whose symptoms include depression, dermatitis and diarrhea. The vitamers include nicotinic acid and nicotinamide (and their ionized and salt forms).
nicotinic acid : A pyridinemonocarboxylic acid that is pyridine in which the hydrogen at position 3 is replaced by a carboxy group.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"In human chronic myelogenous leukemia cells, K562, which are relatively resistant to various inducers of apoptosis, the apoptosis was induced by picolinic acid and dipicolinic acid in about 50% of the cells 5-10 mM via the caspase pathway, but was not at 1 mM."1.31Apoptosis induced by niacin-related compounds in K562 cells but not in normal human lymphocytes.
