Primary ovary choriocarcinoma: individual DNA polymorphic analysis as a strategy to confirm diagnosis and treatment

Rare Tumors, 2013
Primary choriocarcinoma of the ovary is rare. Furthermore, this tumor can arise from gestational tissue or pure germ cells of the ovary, with the latter resulting in non-gestational choriocarcinoma.

Residence Near Agricultural Crops at Birth and Risk of Adult Testicular Germ Cell Tumors: A French Nationwide Case–Control Study Using Historical Aerial GIS Data

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
As the incidence of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) rises, prenatal exposure to agricultural pesticides may represent an important risk factor. Here, geographic information system‐based measures of farmland proximity at birth were used as a proxy for early‐life pesticide exposure in France, a major pesticide consumer.

Widespread choriocarcinoma metastases from de-differentiated gastro-esophageal junction primary adenocarcinoma: A case report with literature review

Gynecologic Oncology Reports, 2020
Background: Non-gestational choriocarcinomas represent a small subset of germ cell tumors. The majority of non-gestational choriocarcinomas arise from the gynecologic tract. In rare cases, they can originate from other sites, and very few such cases have

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

Lentivirus-mediated RNA interference targeting the H19 gene inhibits cell proliferation and apoptosis in human choriocarcinoma cell line JAR [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: H19 is a paternally imprinted gene that has been shown to be highly expressed in the trophoblast tissue. Results from previous studies have initiated a debate as to whether noncoding RNA H19 acts as a tumor suppressor or as a tumor promotor ...

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 ...
