Polychlorinated biphenyls and risk of testicular germ cell tumors.
Exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB), may alter hormonal balance and thereby increase risk of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT). To study the relationship of PCBs to TGCT, prediagnostic serum samples from 736 cases and 913 controls in the Servicemen's Testicular Tumor Environmental and Endocrine Determinants study were analyzed. Adjusted odds rati...
متن کاملNontesticular cancers in relatives of testicular germ cell tumor (TGCT) patients from multiple-case TGCT families
Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) exhibit striking familial aggregation that remains incompletely explained. To improve the phenotypic definition of familial TGCT (FTGCT), we studied an international cohort of multiple-case TGCT families to determine whether first-degree relatives of FTGCT cases are at increased risk of other types of cancer. We identified 1041 first-degree relatives of TGCT c...
متن کاملgenetics of testicular germ cell tumors
testicular germ cell tumor (tgct) is the most solid tumor in 20-40 years old man. tgct account for 95% of testicular tumors and represent a unique type of human cancer from several different perspectives. tgct arise by transformation of germ cells. the transformed germ cells exhibit ploripotentially to differentiate into embryonic. extra-embryonic, and somatic tissue types, and are highly sensi...
متن کاملPolychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)-degrading bacteria associated with trees in a PCB-contaminated site.
The abundance, identities, and degradation abilities of indigenous polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)-degrading bacteria associated with five species of mature trees growing naturally in a contaminated site were investigated to identify plants that enhance the microbial PCB degradation potential in soil. Culturable PCB degraders were associated with every plant species examined in both the rhizosph...
متن کاملPersistent organochlorine pesticides and risk of testicular germ cell tumors.
BACKGROUND Exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, such as persistent organochlorine pesticides, has been suggested to increase the risk of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs). METHODS To study the relationship of POP exposure to TGCT risk, prediagnostic serum samples from 754 case subjects and 928 control subjects enrolled in the Servicemen's Testicular Tumor Environmental and Endocrine ...
