testis cancers การใช้

• A major risk factor for the development of testis cancer is cryptorchidism ( undescended testicles ).
• As a biomarker, GJA1 could also be used to screen young males for risk of testis cancer.
• It was originally felt that orchidopexy resulted in easier detection of testis cancer but did not lower the risk of actually developing cancer.
• Unlike testis biopsy histology, however, FNA cytology has not been rigorously evaluated for the ability to distinguish in situ neoplasia and testis cancer.
• Notably, GJA1 expression has been associated with a wide variety of cancers, including nasopharyngeal carcinoma, meningioma, hemangiopericytoma, liver tumor, colon cancer, esophageal cancer, breast cancer, mesothelioma, glioblastoma, lung cancer, adrenocortical tumors, renal cell cancer, cervical carcinoma, ovarian carcinoma, endometrial carcinoma, prostate cancer, thyroid carcinoma, and testis cancer.
