nitrous oxide and Acute Lymphoid Leukemia

nitrous oxide has been researched along with Acute Lymphoid Leukemia in 3 studies

Nitrous Oxide: Nitrogen oxide (N2O). A colorless, odorless gas that is used as an anesthetic and analgesic. High concentrations cause a narcotic effect and may replace oxygen, causing death by asphyxia. It is also used as a food aerosol in the preparation of whipping cream.
dinitrogen oxide : A nitrogen oxide consisting of linear unsymmetrical molecules with formula N2O. While it is the most used gaseous anaesthetic in the world, its major commercial use, due to its solubility under pressure in vegetable fats combined with its non-toxicity in low concentrations, is as an aerosol spray propellant and aerating agent for canisters of 'whipped' cream.

"Blast cells from 10 cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and 5 cases of acute lymphoid leukemia (ALL) were incubated with 5 x 10(-8) M [3H] 5-formyltetrahydrofolate (5-formylTHF) for 18 h to label intracellular folate pools, which were subsequently quantitated by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)."1.28Effect of nitrous oxide and methotrexate on folate coenzyme pools of blast cells from leukemia patients.
