Currently, common treatment approaches for neoplastic diseases include surgery, radiation, and/or anticancer drugs (chemotherapy, hormone medications, and targeted therapies). In particular, anticancer medicines destroy cancerous cells by blocking certain pathways that aid in the disease's initiation and progression. These pharmaceutical drugs' capacity to inhibit malignant cells has made them indispensable in the treatment of neoplastic disorders.

Androgen secretion by testicular germ-cell tumors (GCTs) appears to be markedly rare and likely underreported in the literature. This case study highlights a patient with such a rare tumor, underscoring a notable and yet easily avoidable diagnostic oversight in one of the most prevalent cancers among men. We advocate for increased vigilance and the inclusion of specific symptomatic screening for hyperandrogenism of select patients in existing guidelines and, where appropriate, the implementation of standardized hormonal laboratory analyses in both pre- and post-orchidectomy assessments.

Adversities associated with isolation during adolescence, including the lack of appropriate emotional and social experiences, can jeopardize the individual development leading to the onset of mental illnesses such as major depressive disorder. Girls have higher rates of depression compared to boys; however, the relative contribution of biological and cultural factors to such a gender-dependent difference remains unclear. To identify the role of biological factors in this distinct susceptibility, we exposed adolescent C57BL/6 male and female mice (n = 12-14) to social isolation and we evaluated their behavioral responses, investigating both emotional and cognitive competencies during adolescence.
