Abstract excerpt
We have examined insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) gene expression for evidence of imprinting in 15 informative patients with embryonal tumours. Biallelic expression was observed in all but one sample of normal juvenile kidney and liver, and in 9/10 associated Wilms' tumours, 3/3 hepa...
