F. Morabito et al., In vitro modulation of bcl-2 protein expression, drug-induced apoptosis and cytotoxicity by interleukin-10 in chronic lymphocytic leukemia, HAEMATOLOG, 83(11), 1998, pp. 1046-1048
Interleukin-10 failed to modify either the percentage of bcl-2(+) cells or
the number of bcl-2 molecules, or to reduce 2-chlorodeoxyadenosine- and flu
darabine-induced apoptosis. The cytokine at 0.1 ng/mL Induced an increase o
f cell survival both in the absence or in the presence of 2-chlorodeoxyaden
osine, while no difference was appreciated with fludarabine.
