Loss of Pten causes tumor initiation following differentiation of murine pluripotent stem cells due to failed repression of Nanog. [PDF]
Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) hold significant promise in regenerative medicine due to their unlimited capacity for self-renewal and potential to differentiate into every cell type in the body. One major barrier to the use of PSCs is their potential risk

Mediastinal Germ Cell Tumor with Testicular Microlithiasis [PDF]
Testicular microlithiasis (TM) is a condition in which punctate calcifications are present in the testicle. A case of a 29-year-old Saudi male who developed a cough, hemoptysis, and shortness of breath is presented in this report.

Circulating Tumor Cells in Patients with Testicular Germ Cell Tumors [PDF]
Abstract Purpose: Germ cell tumors (GCTs) represent the most frequent malignancies among young men, but little is known about circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in these tumors. Considering their heterogeneity, CTCs were investigated using two independent assays targeting germ cell tumor and epithelial cell–specific markers, and results were
