Abstract excerpt
WT1-mutant Wilms tumors exhibit a high rate of concomitant CTNNB1 mutations, associated with activated Wnt signaling. Here, we show by laser and manual microdissection of different histologic cell types from 6 WT1-mutant tumor samples that 1 patient's tumor can contain up to 4 distinct mutations in CTNNB1 and/or WTX. Consecutive sections may also harbor different CTNNB1 mutations. The variability of activating...
