## Abstract The WNT/β‐catenin pathway is involved in numerous human cancers. Mutations of the __CTNNB1__ (β‐catenin) gene have also been detected in a subset of pediatric Wilms tumors, but the target genes of the deregulated WNT/β‐catenin pathway in these tumors have yet to be identified.

Hepatoblastoma is a rare malignant tumor of the liver that occurs in children at an average age of 2 to 3 years. Epidemiologic studies have shown an increased frequency of this tumor type in families affected by adenomatous polyposis coli. In addition to the epidemiologic data, molecular genetic stu

## Abstract Wilms tumor is genetically heterogeneous, and until recently only one Wilms tumor gene was known, __WT1__ at 11p13. However, __WT1__ is altered in only ∼20% of Wilms tumors. Recently a novel gene, __WTX__ at Xq11.1, was reported to be mutated in Wilms tumors. No overlap between tumors w
