TGF‐β1, EGF and FGF4 synergistically induce differentiation of the seminoma cell line TCam‐2 into a cell type resembling mixed non‐seminoma

Abstract excerpt
Malignant germ-cell tumours arise from a neoplastic precursor, the carcinoma in situ, and develop into seminomas and/or non-seminomas (embryonal carcinomas, teratomas, yolk-sac tumours and choriocarcinomas). Based on histological and clinical findings, it has been postulated that seminomas can eventually transform into non-seminomas. Here, we used the cell line TCam-2 as model for seminomas and interrogated their...
