How can a deeper understanding of germ cell biology enrich our appreciation of the complexity and beauty of life?

Here, we show that the feminizing effect is inherent to germ cells and is not affected by gametogenic stages or the sexual fate of germ cells. Germ cell tumors are rare, accounting for about 1 percent of all childhood cancers. If your child is diagnosed with a germ cell tumor, you'll want a team with ...

Germ cell tumors of the brain most commonly involve or are found near the pituitary and pineal glands in the brain. Germ line refers to the sex cells (eggs and sperm) that sexually reproducing organisms use to pass on their genomes from one generation to the next.
