Gastrointestinal Involvement of Testicular Germ Cell Tumor: A Case Report and Literature Review

Case Reports in Gastrointestinal Medicine, 2017
Testicular germ cell tumors (GCT) are the commonest solid tumors in young men. Typical presentation is with painless scrotal swelling; however, symptoms related to complications or metastasis may be the initial presentation.

Gonadal germ cell tumors in children and adolescents

Journal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons, 2014
Pediatric germ cell tumors (GCT) are rare tumors: 80% are benign, 20% malignant (2-3% of all malignant pediatric tumors). The gonadal sites (ovary and testis) account for 40% of cases.

Emerging Prognostic Biomarkers in Testicular Germ Cell Tumors: Looking Beyond Established Practice

Frontiers in Oncology, 2018
Testicular germ cell tumors are unique among solid cancers. Historically, this disease was deadly if progressed beyond the stage I. The implementation of cisplatin-based chemotherapy regimens has drastically changed the clinical outcome of metastatic ...

Mechanical Interactions Impact the Functions of Immune Cells and Their Application in Immunoengineering

Advanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
This review covers the mechanical forces experienced by immune cells through cell–cell and cell–extracellular matrix interactions and how these forces influence their receptors and functions. These relationships between forces and cellular functions can be exploited using engineering techniques to modify the physical properties of materials for novel ...

Germ Cell Tumors

, 2018
CNS germ cell tumors (GCTs) are uncommon neoplasms affecting primarily children and young adults. These tumors most often arise in the midline involving the pineal and suprasellar regions, but involvement of multiple tumor sites around the third ventricle is not uncommon.

Loss of NR2F6 Protects from Salmonella Typhimurium Infection

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Loss of nuclear receptor NR2F6 reduces tissue‐resident macrophage populations. Nr2f6‐deficient mice are protected from weight loss and bacterial load during infection with Salmonella Typhimurium. Pro‐inflammatory cytokines and iron levels are altered in infected Nr2f6‐deficient mice.

The differentiation status of primary gonadal germ cell tumors correlates inversely with telomerase activity and the expression level of the gene encoding the catalytic subunit of telomerase

BMC Cancer, 2002
Background The activity of the ribonucleoprotein enzyme telomerase is detectable in germ, stem and tumor cells. One major component of telomerase is human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT), which encodes the catalytic subunit of telomerase.

Genetic Deconvolution of Embryonic and Maternal Cell‐Free DNA in Spent Culture Medium of Human Preimplantation Embryo Through Deep Learning

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
DECENT is a deep learning method that enhances noninvasive preimplantation genetic testing by accurately reconstructing embryonic copy number variations (CNVs) from cell‐free DNA in spent embryo culture media. By mitigating maternal contamination, DECENT improves diagnostic accuracy, even with high contamination levels, offering a reliable, noninvasive

piR‐RCC Suppresses Renal Cell Carcinoma Progression by Facilitating YBX‐1 Cytoplasm Localization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
PIWI‐interacting RNAs (piRNAs), a novel category of small non‐coding RNAs, have been implicated in the development of various diseases. This study explores the tumor‐suppressive mechanism of a downregulated piRNA (designated piR‐RCC) in renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and provides a delivery strategy targeting RCC tumor by constructing a cell membrane ...
