This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Results: Six of the childhood WT showed a ABSTRACT cytoplasmic Snail1 reaction. Adult WT were Introduction: Snail1 is a transcription factor that Snail1 negative. E-cadherin expression was suppresses E-cadherin. The roles of Snail1 and found in epithelial structures in eight of the E-cadherin in mesenchyme–epithelial transition nine WT. Tubular epithelial cells showed a Snail1 (MET) are not yet clear. We explored the role of positivity in the cytoplasm of seven kidneys. Snail1, E-cadherin and N-cadherin in fetal E-cadherin expression was found in epithelia of kidneys and compared it with Wilms’ tumor/ all ten fetal kidneys, but not in the mesenchyme. nephroblastoma (WT), a rare mesenchymal Four out of ten fetal kidneys and six out of nine kidney tumor, to better understand MET in WT were N-cadherin positive.
