Abstract excerpt

Increasing incidence of testicular germ cell cancer (TGCC) is most probably related to environment and lifestyle. However, an underlying genetic predisposition may play a role and since sex steroids are assumed to be important for the rise and progression of TGCC, a study of androgen receptor (AR) gene polymorphisms in relation to the risk, histological type and progression of TGCC was undertaken. In 367 TGCC...
