T Cell Microenvironmental Impacts and Therapeutic Opportunities: Application to Human Testicular Germ Cell Tumors. (PubMed, Andrology)
Recent advances in single-cell transcriptomics and clinical studies highlight the necessity for high-resolution characterization of T cell subpopulations and their intercellular interactions within the TGCT TME. Elucidating these mechanisms is critical for the rational development of novel immunotherapeutic strategies aimed at overcoming resistance, minimizing long-term treatment-related sequelae, and enhancing clinical outcomes for TGCT patients.

Discovery of natural apigenin analogues as lysine-specific demethylase 1 inhibitors against tumoral testicular germ cells. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
Meanwhile, it also activated the release of LDH, increased the activity of SOD and enhanced the level of MDA in NTERA-2 cells. These findings indicated that 8,3'-diprenylapigenin is a novel reversible LSD1 inhibitor and deserves further exploration to treat testicular germ cell tumors.

A urologic manifestation of carney complex: Bilateral Sertoli tumors and scrotal myxoma in an adolescent male. (PubMed, Urol Case Rep)
We present a case of CNC in an adolescent male with bilateral LCCSCTs and a very large scrotal myxoma, resulting in azoospermia and pain requiring surgical management. This report highlights the urologic manifestations of CNC and outlines appropriate evaluation, treatment, and surveillance strategies relevant to pediatric and adolescent urologic practice.

Targeting mutant VHL-gene results in therapy response in metastatic clear cell carcinoma of rete testis. (PubMed, Urol Case Rep)
Off-label treatment with belzutifan was initiated. Regression of the pulmonary lesion with ongoing complete remission at 12 months of follow-up was observed. This case highlights the importance of molecular profiling for personalized therapy in rare tumor entities.

Comparative Analysis of the Transcriptomic Response to Cisplatin in Drug-Sensitive and Drug-Resistant Testicular Germ Cell Tumors. (PubMed, Cancers (Basel))
Several of these p53/MYC/TFRC1 targets were associated with a higher instance of disease-free survival in a cohort of TGCT patients. Cisplatin resistance in TGCT cells is associated with a diminished alteration in cisplatin-responsive genes, especially genes known to be regulated by p53, MYC and TFRC1, that may be linked to cisplatin hypersensitivity and survival in TGCTs.

International guidelines on the diagnosis and treatment of NUT carcinoma. (PubMed, Innovation (Camb))
Current mainstays of treatment include surgical resection, radiotherapy, and medical treatment (chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy), although no standard treatment protocol exists. Future research directions include improving diagnostic efficiency, exploring new therapeutic strategies (such as highly selective BET inhibitors, BET-inhibitor combinations, and PROTAC technologies), and recommending basket trials as a research approach for patients with NUTM1 gene fusions.
