During B- and T-cell ontogeny, extensive apoptosis occurs at distinct stages of development. Agents that increase intracellular levels of cAMP induce apoptosis in thymocytes and mature B cells, prompting us to investigate the role of cAMP signaling in human CD10+ B-precursor cells. We show for the f
## Incidence rates of Wilms' tumor (WT) markedly differ in East Asian and Caucasian children. In the present study, we examined WT1 deletions/mutations and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on 11p and 11q in a large number of WTs and compared our findings with those from 4 series of Caucasian WTs. Inci
Mutations in the WTI tumor suppressor gene are known t o contribute t o the development of Wilms' tumor (WT) and associated gonadal abnormalities. WTI is expressed principally in the fetal kidney, developing gonads, and spleen and also in the mesothelium, which lines the coelomic cavities. These tis
