Epigenetics and testicular germ cell tumors [PDF]
Malignant testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) are the most frequent testicular cancers in Caucasian males, developing at the most productive age of man. We are briefly reviewing TGCT-tumorigenesis with an emphasis on epigenetics.

Genetics of testicular germ cell tumors [PDF]
Understanding the molecular basis underlying testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) may help improve patient outcomes, particularly for patients with poorer risk or chemoresistant disease. Here, we review the major contemporary advances in elucidating TGCT genetics by discussing patterns of TGCT inheritance, recent genomic and transcriptomic discoveries ...
