abstract：:The occurrence of apoptosis in cultured blood cells from HIV+ patients is well-documented. However, the relationship of this process to cytokine production is still undefined. We measured the production of TNF-beta by mitogen-stimulated PBLs from 33 HIV+ patients, while simultaneously assessing their development of ap...
