Experimental Protocol

Anterior orbit and lacrimal gland tissues were collected for RNA extraction and analysis with Affymetrix microarrays. Biopsy samples were obtained from subjects with inflammatory diseases such as NSOI, sarcoidosis, GPA, and TED as wells as from normal controls. In some cases, more than one sample was obtained for a subject and some cases the samples were analyzed twice.
