Biology and Genetics of Adult Male Germ Cell Tumors
8 Dec 2006
Abstract excerpt
Adult male germ cell tumors (GCTs) arise by transformation of totipotent germ cells. They have the unique potential to activate molecular pathways, in part mimicking those occurring during gametogenesis and normal human development, as evidenced by the array of histopathologies observed in vivo. Recent expression profiling studies of GCTs along with advances in embryonic stem-cell research have contributed to our...
