Epigenetics and Testicular Cancer: Bridging the Gap Between Fundamental Biology and Patient Care
Testicular cancer is the most common solid tumor affecting young males. Most testicular cancers are testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs), which are divided into seminomas (SGCTs) and non-seminomatous testicular germ cell tumors (NSGCTs).

PRDM14 is expressed in germ cell tumors with constitutive overexpression altering human germline differentiation and proliferation. [PDF]
Germ cell tumors (GCTs) are a heterogeneous group of tumors occurring in gonadal and extragonadal locations. GCTs are hypothesized to arise from primordial germ cells (PGCs), which fail to differentiate.

Testicular germ-cell tumours and penile squamous cell carcinoma: Appropriate management makes the difference [PDF]
Germ-cell tumours (GCT) of the testis and penile squamous cell carcinoma (PeSCC) are a rare and a very rare uro-genital cancers, respectively. Both tumours are well defined entities in terms of management, where specific recommendations - in the form of ...
