Production of sperm and androgens is the main function of the testis. This depends on normal development of both testicular somatic cells and germ cells. A genetic program initiated from the Y chromosome gene sex-determining region Y (SRY) directs somatic cell specification to Sertoli cells that orchestrate further development.

Short-term germ cell survival and central tissue degeneration limit organoid cultures. Here, testicular organoids (TOs) were generated from two different mouse strains in 3D printed one-layer scaffolds (1LS) at the air-medium interface displaying tubule ...

We quantified the burden of testis cancer in the United States by identifying trends in its incidence, its treatment and the use of health care resources to estimate the economic impact of the disease.The analytical methods used to generate these results were described previously.The overall incidence of testis cancer in the United States increased 46%

Klinefelter syndrome (KS; 47,XXY) affects 1–2 in 1000 males. Most men with KS suffer from an early germ cell loss and testicular fibrosis from puberty onwards. Mechanisms responsible for these processes remain unknown. Previous genomics studies on testis

Torsion of the appendix testis in undescended testes as a rare cause of groin swelling
A 10 year-old boy presented to the emergency department with torsion of an Appendix Testis in an undescended testis. The diagnosis was suspected clinically and confirmed by ultrasound imaging. Intra-operatively, the testis was well perfused.

Ochratoxin A: In Utero Exposure in Mice Induces Adducts in Testicular DNA [PDF]
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a nephrotoxin and carcinogen that is associated with Balkan endemic nephropathy and urinary tract tumors. OTA crosses the placenta and causes adducts in the liver and kidney DNA of newborns.
