Published: September 1987

Experimental teratomas derived from renal isografts of early postimplantation rat embryonic shields were analysed histologically for the presence of lentoids and their relationship with other tissues within the tumour. The observations permit the conclusion that in teratomas lentoids originate either from the retinal epithelium or from the ependymal cells of the brain ventricle.

Background/objectives: Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are common in young adult men and have high cure rates. Conventional serum tumor markers and imaging are not able to differentiate between histologic subtypes of the disease, which portend different prognoses and require distinct therapeutic strategies. Micro-RNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding transcripts involved in the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression, which have emerged as promising biomarkers in a variety of tumors.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the metabolic profiles of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) after their transplantation, showing that these grafts mature from relying on glycolysis to utilizing fatty acid oxidation over time.
  • - Researchers also explored teratomas, which can arise from non-cardiomyocyte cells within transplanted hiPSCs, finding elevated amino acid transporters and accumulation of specific amino acids like methionine in these tumors.
  • - The presence of subcutaneous teratomas from undifferentiated hiPSCs can be detected through positron emission tomography using a specific tracer, highlighting its relevance in assessing the safety of cardiac regenerative therapies.

Introduction: Mature cystic teratomas (MCTs) are the most common neoplasm of the ovary, occurring in 10-20% of women during their lifetimes. MCTs may rarely undergo malignant transformation, of which squamous cell carcinoma is the most common histopathology. This rare malignancy is poorly understood; therefore, medical and surgical treatment have yet to be optimized to produce the best outcomes for patients diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma in MCT (SCC-MCT).

Adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs) impact diverse cellular processes and pathological conditions, but their functions in early cell-fate specification remain less understood. To gain insights here, we began by charting time-course RNA editing profiles in human organs from fetal to adult stages. Next, we utilized hPSC differentiation to experimentally probe ADARs, harnessing brain organoids as neural specific, and teratomas as pan-tissue developmental models.
