Involvement of Bax Protein in the Prevention of Glucocorticoid-Induced Thymocytes Apoptosis by Melatonin

The antiapoptotic effect of melatonin has been described in several systems. In this study, the antagonistic effect of the methoxyindole on dexamethasone-induced apoptosis in mouse thymocytes was examined. Melatonin decreased both DNA fragmentation, and the number of annexin V-positive cells incubat...
