Mori et al., Virus Genes 2001
(Leukemia, T-Cell) :
We have recently demonstrated that
Tax induces the constitutive expression of the anti-apoptotic protein,
Bcl-xL , in a mouse T-cell line ... We thus examined whether
Tax also
activates the expression of
Bcl-xL in human T-cells ... Expression of
Tax in a human T-cell line, Jurkat,
induced the expression of the
Bcl-xL gene, but did not significantly affect the expression of the other apoptosis related genes, Bcl-2 and Bax ... Transient transfection assays showed that
Tax stimulated human
Bcl-xL promoter activity in Jurkat cells
Dean et al., Oncogene 2009
(HTLV-I Infections) :
Using functional assays, we demonstrate that
Tax 1
enhanced the repressive activity of
BCL6 and increased the levels of apoptosis induced by BCL6 in osteosarcoma cells indicating that both proteins cooperate in vivo to cause a physiological affect
