BMP-2 mRNA is also expressed at lower levels in the secondary interstitial cells (SIC) and theca interstitial cells (TIC) but undetectable in other ovary cell types (Table 1).
Disease-causing myocilin mutants are less soluble in Triton [ 16 ] and are retained by the cell [ 12 ] . Other studies have shown that a truncated form of myocilin does not get secreted [ 20 21 ] and that mouse MYOC knockouts are without discernable phenotype [ 42 ] . Furthermore, a human hemizygous individual containing an interstitial deletion of chromosome 1, which encodes MYOC , was without evidence of glaucoma [ 43 ] and another patient homozygous for a severly truncated form of myocilin had no evidence of glaucoma [ 44 ] or other discernable phenotypes.
The revised map position places APBA2 outside of the most narrow interstitial duplication interval and the area most supported by linkage data but within the larger idic(15) duplications.
In some circumstances, CD4 +and CD8 +T cells were rendered inactive in tumor-bearing hosts [ 8 ] . The inactivation of CD4 +T cells has been attributed either to the tumor cells themselves or to bone marrow-derived cells [ 9 10 11 ] , whereas antigen ignorance or loss of memory have been postulated to underlay that of CD8 +T cells [ 12 13 ] . Other studies have suggested that tumor cells can secrete immunosuppressive factors such as TGF-β or express Fas ligand to induce apoptosis of infiltrating lymphocytes [ 14 15 16 ] . Furthermore, the tumor vasculature appears to be quite different from normal blood vessels, in terms of structural organization, interstitial pressure, and flow patterns [ 17 ] , and in reduced lymphocyte and natural killer cell homing and adhesion [ 18 19 20 21 ] . The existence of significant barriers to effective immunological destruction is further illustrated by a mouse model of concurrent multistage tumorigenesis and anti-oncogene autoimmunity, wherein progenitor dysplastic lesions are infiltrated and disrupted, while solid tumors are not [ 22 ] . The hypothesis is that the microenvironment of certain types of solid tumor can serve to locally suppress T cell infiltration.
