The present and future of serum diagnostic tests for testicular germ cell tumours [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Testicular germ cell tumours (GCTs) are the most common malignancy occurring in young adult men and the incidence of these tumours is increasing. Current research priorities in this field include improving overall survival for patients classified as ...

Ovarian dysgerminomas are characterised by frequent KIT mutations and abundant expression of pluripotency markers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background Ovarian germ cell tumours (OGCTs) typically arise in young females and their pathogenesis remains poorly understood. We investigated the origin of malignant OGCTs and underlying molecular events in the development of the ...

ErbBs inhibition by lapatinib blocks tumor growth in an orthotopic model of human testicular germ cell tumor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In this work, we have analyzed the expression of different members of the ErbB family in human samples of testicular germ cell tumors (GCTs). We observed expression of ErbB1 or ErbB2 in different tumor subtypes, but we also found high expression of ErbB3

Distinct requirements for energy metabolism in mouse primordial germ cells and their reprogramming to embryonic germ cells [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2017
Significance Primordial germ cells (PGCs) are the origin of germ cells and are critically important for continuity of multicellular organisms. Although the unique characteristics of mouse PGCs have been described in gene expression and epigenome levels, the metabolomic and proteomic profiles of PGCs and their significance for PGC properties ...

Integrated Molecular Characterization of Testicular Germ Cell Tumors

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
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.

Function of Bmpr1a in ES cell differentiation and cell competition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) 4 signalling via BMPR1A is required for the maintenance of the epiblast in the early embryo, and for self-renewal of pluripotent mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells by inhibiting neural differentiation.
