Methods for protecting a T cell from cell death are described. The methods involve contacting the T cell with an agent which augments the bcl-X L protein level in the T cell such that it is protected from cell death. The invention further pertains to methods for increasing the susceptibility of a T cell to cell death, comprising contacting the T cell with at least one agent which decreases bcl-X L protein level in the T cell. Both in vivo and in vitro methods are described.

L'invention se rapporte à des procédés visant à éviter la mort d'un lymphocyte T. Ces procédés consistent à mettre en contact le lymphocyte T avec un agent qui augmente le taux des protéines bcl-XL dans le lymphocyte T de façon à lui éviter la mort. L'invention se rapporte également à des procédés visant à accroître la résistance d'un lymphocyte T pour lui éviter la mort, ce procédé consistant à mettre le lymphocyte T en contact avec au moins un agent qui réduit le taux des protéines bcl-XL dans le lymphocyte T.
