## Background: Loss of imprinting (loi) of insulin-like growth factor-2 (igf-2) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of certain human cancers and tumor-predisposing overgrowth disorders, such as beckwith-wiedemann syndrome. in a previous study, the authors revealed that certain patients with chi
## BACKGROUND. Insulin-like growth factor-2 (IGF2) and H19 are reciprocally imprinted genes on chromosome 11; IGF2 is expressed paternally and H19 is expressed maternally. Loss of imprinting (LOI) at both H19 and IGF2 has been reported in seven fully informative adult testicular germ cell tumors (
