The process of apoptosis in a lymphocyte. The process of apoptosis in a T cell. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of activation-induced cell death of T cells. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of activation-induced cell death of T cells. Any process that modulates the occurrence or rate of activation-induced cell death of T cells. The process of regulating the proliferation and elimination of T cells such that the total number of T cells within a whole or part of an organism is stable over time in the absence of an outside stimulus. A type of T cell apoptosis that occurs towards the end of the expansion phase following the initial activation of mature T cells by antigen and is triggered by T cell receptor stimulation and signals transmitted via various surface-expressed members of the TNF receptor family such as Fas ligand, Fas, and TNF and the p55 and p75 TNF receptors. The process of regulating the proliferation and elimination of lymphocytes such that the total number of lymphocytes within a whole or part of an organism is stable over time in the absence of an outside stimulus.
