BAX and T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma: On the other hand, the opposite results were reported by a number of authors, who demonstrated that expression of BAX gene together with other pro-apoptotic factors, such as BAD or caspases, were down-regulated in an in vitro model of T cell lymphoma over-expressing GH [12] and in cardiomyocytes [46] or colonocytes [47] of transgenic mice overexpressing GH gene as well as in myocytes [48] and neurons [49] of GH-treated animals.
