Embryonal carcinoma is a histologic subgroup of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs), and its cells may follow differentiation lineages in a manner similar to early embryogenesis. To acquire new knowledge about the transcriptional programs operating in this tumor development model, we used 22k oligo DNA microarrays to analyze normal and neoplastic tissue samples from human testis. Additionally, retinoic acid-induced in vitro differentiation was studied in relevant cell lines. We identified genes ...[more]
