They are clinically and histologically subdivided into seminomas and non-seminomas. 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin,25(OH)(2)D(3)) is the active form of vitamin D and exerts its actions via a specific intracellular vitamin D receptor (VDR). Several investigations in the recent years have revealed, in addition to a physiological occurrence of the VDR in various tissues, VDR expression in different human malignancies. Furthermore, 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) plays an important role in the regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation. In different normal and malignant cell types, antiproliferative and pro-differentiating effects of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) are described. We investigated whether TGCT express the VDR, wether differences exist between the histological subtypes and if vitamin D has a function on the proliferation of tumour cells. Furthermore, we investigated the potential function of the vitamin D-regulated genes nuclear receptor co-repressor 1 (NCOR1), nuclear receptor co-repressor 2 (NCOR2), thyroid receptor interacting protein 15 (TRIP I 5), Growth Arrest and DNA Damage (GADD45), MAP kinase-activated protein kinase 2 (MAPKAPK2), Cytochmme P450, family 24, subfamily A, polypeptide 1 (C.YP24A1) and Cytochrome P450, family 27, subfamily B. polypeptide (CYP27B1) in the pathogenesis of TGCT. We demonstrate, for the first time, that primary TGCT as well as TGCT cell lines, express VDR mRNA and protein. Vitamin D and VDR may play a role in the pathogenesis of TGCTs. Furthermore, vitamin D inhibits proliferation of TGCT cell-lines, potentially via an increase in expression of GADD45. Our data suggest that vitamin D could play a role in antitumour therapy."],["dc.identifier.isi","000298780700017"],["dc.identifier.pmid","22213325"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/27850"],["dc.notes.status","zu prĂĽfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Int Inst Anticancer Research"],["dc.relation.issn","0250-7005"],["dc.title","Expression and Function of the Vitamin D Receptor in Malignant Germ Cell Tumour of the Testis"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

N-cadherin (CDH2), the neuronal cadherin, stimulates cell-cell contacts during migration and invasion of cells and is able to suppress tumour cell growth. Methods Tumour tissues were acquired from 113 male patients and investigated by immunohistochemistry, as were the three TGCT cell lines NCCIT, NTERA-2 and Tcam2.

For the correlation between the expression of myoglobin, hypoxia-inducible-factor-la, and capillary density tissue of 86 different renal cell carcinomas were immunohistochemically stained with myoglobin-specific and hypoxia-inducible-factor-1 alpha-specific antibodies as well as with CD31 antibody. Four different renal carcinoma cell lines were cultivated under hypoxic conditions and the expression of myoglobin and hypoxia-induciblefactor-1 alpha was evaluated by real-time PCR and Western blot. Renal cell carcinoma including clear cell, papillary, and chromophobe subtypes expressed myoglobin with an inverse relationship to capillary density being highly significant for clear cell renal cell carcinoma For hypoxiainducible-factor-1 alpha a significant correlation with capillary density could also be observed in clear cell RCC. In renal cell carcinoma cell lines hypoxia induced a significant increase of myoglobin expression up to 62 fold, whereas hypoxia-inducible-factor-la only increased up to 5 fold. The PCR results of myoglobin expression could be confirmed by Western blot. Myoglobin seems to be a sensitive marker for hypovascularized tumor entities especially during the early phase of hypoxia.

The correct identification of histological subtypes, in difficult cases supported by immunohistochemistry, is essential for therapeutic management. Furthermore, biomarkers may help to understand pathophysiological processes in these tumor types. Two GCT cell lines, TCam-2 with seminoma-like characteristics, and NTERA-2, an embryonal carcinoma-like cell line, were compared by a quantitative proteomic approach using high-resolution mass spectrometry (MS) in combination with stable isotope labelling by amino acid in cell culture (SILAC). We were able to identify 4856 proteins and quantify the expression of 3936. 347 were significantly differentially expressed between the two cell lines. For further validation, CD81, CBX-3, PHF6, and ENSA were analyzed by western blot analysis. The results confirmed the MS results. Immunohistochemical analysis on 59 formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE) normal and GCT tissue samples (normal testis, GCNIS, seminomas, and embryonal carcinomas) of these proteins demonstrated the ability to distinguish different GCT subtypes, especially seminomas and embryonal carcinomas. In addition, siRNA-mediated knockdown of these proteins resulted in an antiproliferative effect in TCam-2, NTERA-2, and an additional embryonal carcinoma-like cell line, NCCIT.

Only a few tuberous sclerosis patients have been described who showed a multifocal micronodular pneumocyte hyperplasia of the lung. Another benign tumor which often occurs together with tuberous sclerosis is the angiomyolipoma of the kidney. Furthermore, an increased incidence of renal cell carcinoma in connection with tuberous sclerosis has also been proven. Case presentation We report a 13-year-old white girl with epilepsy and hypopigmented skin lesions. Radiological studies demonstrated the typical cortical tubers leading to the diagnosis of tuberous sclerosis. In the following examinations a large number of angiomyolipomas were found in both kidneys. One lesion showed an increasing size and tumor like aspects in magnetic resonance imaging. The pathological examination of the following tumorectomy demonstrated an unclassified renal cell carcinoma.

They are divided into several histological types, i.e. Leydig cell (LCT) and Sertoli cell tumours (SCT). Based on the physiological expression of beta-catenin in normal testis/Sertoli cells, it was previously shown that SCT can carry a beta-catenin mutation, causing a nuclear positivity for beta-catenin and cyclin D1. Furthermore, it could be shown that the stabilization of beta-catenin in Sertoli cells causes the loss of the Sertoli cell marker SOX9. We wanted to know whether the stabilization of beta-catenin in sex cord-stromal tumours influences SOX-9 expression and thus could be used in the diagnosis of sex cord-stromal tumours. Therefore, 53 cases of sex cord-stromal tumours and tumour-like lesions were investigated for their immunohistochemical expressions of beta-catenin, cyclin D1 and SOX9. In addition, mutation analyses of the beta-catenin gene (exon 3; CTNNB1) were performed. beta-catenin mutation in SCT results in nuclear beta-catenin and cyclin-D1 expressions on immunohistochemical analysis. The nuclear expression/stabilization of beta-catenin causes the loss of SOX9 in these tumours. In contrast, SOX9 is considerably expressed in non-mutated SCT as well as in Sertoli cells of non-neoplastic testes. In summary, immunohistochemical analyses of beta-catenin and SOX9 are useful to distinguish SCT from other sex cord-stromal tumours of the testis.
