Growth hormone prevents human monocytic cells from Fas‐mediated apoptosis by up‐regulating Bcl‐2 expression

Apoptosis and particularly Fas‐mediated apoptosis has been proposed to play a key role in controlling monocyte homeostasis. We and others have documented the regulatory function of human growth hormone (hGH) on monocytic cells, which prompted us to investigate the role of hGH on their response to Fa...
