In Situ Expression of miR‐371a‐3p and miR‐373‐3p in Testicular Germ Cell Tumours and Detection in Serum

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs) are the most common type of tumour diagnosed in young men, and reliable non‐invasive biomarkers are crucial for clinical management. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) from the miR‐371–373 cluster have recently been identified as novel and more sensitive serum biomarkers than the conventional protein‐based ...

Rare Non-germ Cell Testicular Tumors: A Series of Three Cases [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research
Testicular neoplasms are the most common malignancy among men aged 20-40 years. More than 95% are germ cell tumours and 5% are sex cord stromal tumours. The most common presentation is a painless scrotal lump. Sometimes, it may present as a painful lump,

Broader Familial Cancer Risk in Relatives of Testicular Cancer Patients: Insights From Two Mediterranean Populations

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Familial clustering of testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT) is well‐established, whereas the risk of non‐testicular cancer among relatives remains inconsistent across studies. Objective To evaluate the overall and site‐specific cancer risk among first‐degree relatives and grandparents of TGCT patients compared to cancer‐free controls.

Bilateral idiopathic synchronous testicular infarction mimicking malignancy: a case report

Urology Case Reports
Synchronous idiopathic bilateral testicular infarction is exceedingly rare and may mimic malignancy on clinical and radiological assessment. We report a 40-year-old male with bilateral avascular testicular lesions suspicious for germ cell tumour ...

Formation of neural and epidermal lineages during the differentiation of human embryonal carcinomacells [PDF]

, 2003
Within the ectoderm of the developing human embryo, cell fate determination is largely modulated by factors activated by cell-to-cell signalling. In vertebrates, ectoderm primarily differentiates into neural cells that make up the central nervous system ...

The Functional Role and Molecular Characterization of the Therapeutic Target CLDN6 in Germ Cell Tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The tight junction protein CLDN6 has been identified as a cancer‐associated cell surface marker that is rarely expressed in healthy tissues. In testicular germ cell tumors (GCT), CLDN6 is particularly detectable in seminomas, embryonal carcinomas, and choriocarcinomas.

Assessing a Model for a Complex Systemic Disorder—The Value of Male Mice With a Supernumerary X Chromosome for Klinefelter Syndrome Research

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Direct experimental investigation of Klinefelter syndrome (KS) in patients is limited because the syndrome manifests heterogeneously and affects multiple organ systems. Studying KS therefore requires a model that captures this complexity as accurately as possible while still permitting controlled experimental manipulation ...

Effects of FSH on testicular mRNA transcript levels in the hypogonadal mouse [PDF]

, 2009
Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) acts through the Sertoli cell to ensure normal testicular development and function. To identify transcriptional mechanisms through which FSH acts in the testis we have treated gonadotrophin-deficient hypogonadal (hpg ...
