9199966 Katsikis PD, Garcia-Ojeda ME, Torres-Roca JF, Greenwald DR, Herzenberg LA, Herzenberg LA: HIV type 1 Tat protein enhances activation-but not Fas (CD95)-induced peripheral blood T cell apoptosis in healthy individuals. Int Immunol. 1997 Jun;9(6):835-41.

Examining the mechanisms by which Tat induces apoptosis, we found that inhibitors of reactive oxygen intermediate (ROI) generation or neutralizers of ROI, such as rotenone, a potent inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I of the respiratory chain, and 3,3,5,5-tetramethylpyrroline N-oxide (TMPO), an electron spin trap, could both enhance the spontaneous apoptosis induced by Tat.
