The expression of the Wilms tumor suppressor gene WT1 is largely restricted to elements of the developing urogenital system. In the fetal kidney, WT1 transcripts are present at low levels in the condensing mesenchyme and at much higher levels in differentiating glomerular epithelium and are not dete

## Abstract Renal clear cell carcinoma (RCCC) is a malignant tumor with poor prognosis caused by the high incidence of metastasis to distal organs. Although metastatic RCCC cells frequently show aberrant cytoskeletal organization, the underlying mechanism has not been elucidated. DAL‐1/4.1B is an a
The prognostic significance and nature of p53 dysfunction in ovarian carcinoma is unclear. The relation between p53 overexpression, p53 mutations, and their effects on overall survival in primary ovarian carcinoma is explored. ## METHODS. Tumor specimens from 171 consecutive epithelial ovarian ca
On a genetic level, renal-cell carcinoma has been characterized by an abnormality on the short arm of chromosome 3 (3p), which suggests the inactivation of a tumor suppressor gene. One tumor suppressor gene at 3p, the von Hippel-Lindau disease gene, is implicated in tumor development of a whole spec
