Impact of Chemotherapy on Sperm Functional Characteristics in Patients With Testicular Germ Cell Tumours

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCT) are the most common malignancies among young men and represent a major threat to reproductive health. Both the disease itself and oncological treatments, particularly chemotherapy, can compromise spermatogenesis and semen quality.

In Situ Expression of miR‐371a‐3p and miR‐373‐3p in Testicular Germ Cell Tumours and Detection in Serum

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs) are the most common type of tumour diagnosed in young men, and reliable non‐invasive biomarkers are crucial for clinical management. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) from the miR‐371–373 cluster have recently been identified as novel and more sensitive serum biomarkers than the conventional protein‐based ...

Short tandem repeats genotyping of gestational choriocarcinoma – our experiences

Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology
Objective: This short communication demonstrates how short tandem repeat genotyping can identify the origin of gestational choriocarcinoma. Materials and methods: The origin of gestational choriocarcinoma in our three cases was determined using the short

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 ...
