Abstract excerpt

Wnt4 is needed for correct development of several tissues in the mouse, and WNT4 is found here to be expressed in a temporal manner in human embryonic tissues. In addition, WNT4 mRNA is seen in several adult tissues. The 1.5 kb transcript is dominant in adult tissues, whereas the 2.4 kb transcript is the major one in embryonic tissues. The involvement of WNT4 in normal mammary gland and ovary development suggests...
