Pure Embryonal Cell Carcinoma: A Rare Entity [PDF]
Malignancy of the testes constitutes only one percent of all male cancers. Most testicular malignancies are Germ Cell Tumours (GCTs), which are broadly categorised into seminomatous and non-seminomatous types. Non seminomatous GCTs are further classified

Germ Cell Tumor Presenting with Precocious Puberty in a Girl in United Arab Emirates
We herein report a rare case of malignant mixed germ cell tumor comprising both an embryonal carcinoma (60%) and a yolk sac tumor (40%). A 7-year-old girl presented to the emergency department with persistent vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, and ...

Integrated Molecular Characterization of Testicular Germ Cell Tumors
Summary: We studied 137 primary testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) using high-dimensional assays of genomic, epigenomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic features. These tumors exhibited high aneuploidy and a paucity of somatic mutations.

Malignant Ovarian Mixed Germ Cell Tumor: a Rare Case [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Mixed germ cell tumors of the ovary, uncommon but aggressive tumors are seen most often in young women or adolescent girls, and are generally curable if found and treated early.

A Case of Sarcoidosis Disseminated to Skeletal Tissues
Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease of unknown etiology that typically affects young adults. Diagnostic criteria for sarcoidosis include involvement of two or more of the following organ systems: 1) pulmonary infiltrates; 2) bilateral hilar ...

Formation of neural and epidermal lineages during the differentiation of human embryonal carcinomacells [PDF]
Within the ectoderm of the developing human embryo, cell fate determination is largely modulated by factors activated by cell-to-cell signalling. In vertebrates, ectoderm primarily differentiates into neural cells that make up the central nervous system ...

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Signalling events controlling early cell fate decisions in a human embryonal carcinoma cell line, with relation to neural versus non-neural transitions m human ectoderm development [PDF]
In this study the human embryonal carcinoma cell line TERA2.cl.spl2 (TERA2.spl2) was utilised as an in vitro model in which to study mechanisms governing neural versus non- neural transitions in the human ectoderm.

CT10 regulator of kinase (CRK) and CRK‐Like (CRKL) are signaling adaptors driving cell adhesion, motility, differentiation, and proliferation. SH2‐domain containing (SH) proteins are enriched in YXXP motifs which when phosphorylated create preferred binding sites for CRK family SH2 domains.
