Abstract excerpt
The isolation and molecular analysis of genes which cause and/or predispose to Wilms' tumor have yielded fascinating insights into the role of tissue-specific gene regulation in both development and disease processes. Analysis of the WT1 transcription factor has clearly established its role in Wilms' tumorigenesis and a broader role in both urogenital organogenesis and mesenchymal cell differentiation events....
