HtrA2/Omi, a sheep in wolf's clothing.

Mammalian mitochondrial HtrA2/Omi was originally described as an apoptosis inducer, but rather than having extra cells, mice with mutant HtrA2/Omi suffer from a neurodegenerative disease due to progressive mitochondrial damage. This suggests that instead of promoting cell death by antagonizing inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) proteins, the primary function of HtrA2/Omi is to handle misfolded proteins in the mitochondria.

Antibody humanization: a case of the 'Emperor's new clothes'?

The antiglobulin response is perceived as a major problem in the clinical development of therapeutic antibodies. Successive technical developments such as chimeric, humanized and, now, fully human antibodies claim to offer improved solutions to this problem. Although there is clear evidence that chimeric antibodies are less immunogenic than murine monoclonal antibodies, little evidence exists to support claims for further improvements as a result of more elaborate humanization protocols.

Extracranial fasciitis in childhood: a sheep in wolf's clothing.

Soft tissue tumours in children are rare, and the differentiation between pseudosarcomatous tumours and sarcomas is difficult. Rapidly-enlarging masses within the head and neck region in infants require rapid diagnosis and prompt definitive treatment to lessen psychological burden on the parents and the surgical team. We present a case of a 17-month-old girl who had a large, rapidly-enlarging soft tissue mass within the maxilla which was excised. The diagnosis of childhood extracranial fasciitis was confirmed histopathologically. We emphasise the importance of conservative excision once the diagnosis has been confirmed.

Villoglandular papillary adenocarcinoma of the cervix. Beware of a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Villoglandular papillary adenocarcinoma of the cervix is a well differentiated form of cervical adenocarcinoma with a favourable prognosis and a conservative procedure is suggested. We present three cases of villoglandular papillary adenocarcinoma of the cervix. Histological examination of a biopsy of each cervix showed well differentiated villoglandular papillary adenocarcinoma, stage Ib according to FIGO classification. In all cases the disease was limited to the cervix. Nevertheless, histopathological examination of the surgical specimen revealed an infiltrating component with squamous differentiation in one case, while in a second case histopathological examination revealed a moderately differentiated papillary adenocarcinoma with a superficially infiltrating growth-pattern besides the villoglandular papillary adenocarcinoma. Before conservative therapy is considered, careful evaluation of the presence of poor prognostic features must be made. One should consider whether conservative therapy is sufficient because of the predominance of concomitance of other carcinoma besides the villoglandular papillary adenocarcinoma.
