The many facets of the Wilms' tumour gene, WT1
Abstract
Over the years, many apparently contradictory findings and functions have been ascribed to the protein product of the WT1 tumour suppressor gene. These include being a transcriptional activator or repressor, a function in transcription versus RNA metabolism, and these days even a function as oncogene or tumour suppressor gene. To fully understand the role of WT1 in different diseases and normal development, we will need to understand these contradictions. In this review, we will discuss the present state of knowledge and suggest that a role for WT1 in influencing the mesenchymal-epithelial state of cells might be a common function that could explain many of the previously described findings.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
