In this study messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) and DNA of five Wilms tumours were investigated. As expected, the level of insulin-like growth factor (IGF) II-mRNA was elevated up to 50 times in tumour tissue as compared to normal adjacent kidney tissue. In addition, genomic DNA was isolated and dig
Insulin-like growth factor I1 is believed to play an important role in fetal growth and development. The insulin-like growth factor I1 gene expression is tissue specific and developmentally regulated. We have previously shown an enhanced level of insulin-like growth factor I1 messenger RNA and prote
