Prednisone increases apoptosis in in vitro activated human peripheral blood T lymphocytes

Glucocorticoid hormones (GCH) regulate, through the apoptotic process, the negative selection of immature T cells in the thymus. Because apoptosis seems to occur also in the maintenance of peripheral tolerance, we have investigated whether GCH may induce apoptosis in human mature lymphocytes. Periph...
