Incidence of Gonadal and Extragonadal Germ Cell Tumours in Patients With Klinefelter Syndrome

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Klinefelter's syndrome (KS; 47, XXY) is associated with an altered risk profile for malignancies compared with non‐KS males. In particular, several reports have noted a striking association between KS and extragonadal germ cell tumours (EGCTs), especially in the mediastinum, whereas the risk of testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs ...

Broader Familial Cancer Risk in Relatives of Testicular Cancer Patients: Insights From Two Mediterranean Populations

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Familial clustering of testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT) is well‐established, whereas the risk of non‐testicular cancer among relatives remains inconsistent across studies. Objective To evaluate the overall and site‐specific cancer risk among first‐degree relatives and grandparents of TGCT patients compared to cancer‐free controls.

The Functional Role and Molecular Characterization of the Therapeutic Target CLDN6 in Germ Cell Tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The tight junction protein CLDN6 has been identified as a cancer‐associated cell surface marker that is rarely expressed in healthy tissues. In testicular germ cell tumors (GCT), CLDN6 is particularly detectable in seminomas, embryonal carcinomas, and choriocarcinomas.

A Spotlight on Yolk‐sac Tumors: Molecular Pathology, Current Diagnostics, and Novel Therapeutics

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Yolk‐sac tumors are an aggressive subtype of testicular cancer that significantly contribute to disease progression and therapy resistance, especially in adults. While testicular cancer generally has high cure rates with cisplatin‐based treatment, adult yolk‐sac tumors often appear as components of mixed tumors with poor response to

Parallel Liquid Biopsy Analysis of miR‐371a‐3p and Cell‐Free DNA in an Unselected Cohort of Patients With Testicular Germ Cell Tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Despite robust data showing strong potential to improve diagnosis and disease monitoring in testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs), miR‐371a‐3p testing has not yet been implemented in routine clinical practice. Cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) represents another promising liquid biopsy biomarker that may provide complementary molecular ...

CHORIOCARCINOMA (CASE REPORT)

Сибирский онкологический журнал, 2016
Choriocarcinoma is a malignant neoplasm arising usually from the placenta. It is characterized by early hematogenous metastasis. Due to early metastasis and chemoresistance, patients with choriocarcinoma may have a poor prognosis.

Chemotherapy resistance and risk stratification in gestational trophoblastic neoplasia: A systematic review and network meta‐analysis

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Higher pretreatment β‐hCG, greater tumor burden, higher FIGO stage/score, and choriocarcinoma were associated with higher chemoresistance risk in gestational trophoblastic neoplasia. In exploratory network analyses, etoposide‐containing regimens showed lower predicted chemoresistance.

Hemoptysis as primary manifestation in three women with choriocarcinoma with pulmonary metastasis: a case series

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2017
Background Gestational choriocarcinoma is the most common gestational trophoblastic neoplasia; it is often secondary to hydatidiform mole, as well as to abortion, ectopic pregnancy, premature delivery, or term delivery. Approximately 60% of patients with

Human placental exposure to pollutant nanoparticles: uptake, translocation and functional impact

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to pollutant nanoparticles has been increasingly investigated due to concerns about their potential effects on placental function and pregnancy outcomes. Maternal inhalation of pollutant nanoparticles can result in a pro‐inflammatory response; particles can also translocate across the alveolus epithelial barrier

MCT1‐mediated bidirectional propionate transport across human placental syncytiotrophoblast layer: insights from a trophoblast stem cell‐derived barrier model

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Propionate in the fetal circulation is thought to originate from fermentation of dietary fibre by the maternal gut microbiota. However, the mechanism of transplacental transport has remained unclear. Here, we measured propionate permeability using a placental barrier model generated by differentiating human placental trophoblast ...
