Transcription profiling of human hepatoblastoma identifies a 16 gene signature for invasive and metastatic blastomas

Hepatoblastoma, the most common pediatric liver cancer, is tightly linked to excessive Wnt/�-catenin signaling. Microarray analysis identified two tumor subclasses resembling distinct phases of liver development, and a 16-gene signature discriminated invasive and metastatic hepatoblastomas, and predicted prognosis with high accuracy. <br></br>
