immune system
• BAK from T cells is more sensitive to apoptotic signals
• earlier translocation of cytochrome c out of mitochondria
• earlier caspase activation
• thymocytes cultured with antibody to CD3 die more rapidly
• further shrinkage of thymus when mice injected with antibody to CD3
• two fold reduction of thymocytes although the developmental profile seems normal
• 90% of double+ thymocytes killed when mice injected with antibody to CD3
