Chromosomes and expression in human testicular germ-cell tumors: insight into their cell of origin and pathogenesis.

abstract：:Adult (3-month-old) and aged (28-month-old) rats that had been pretreated with 5,7-DHT in both lateral ventricles received grafts of cell suspensions taken from the RR or MR regions taken from the embryonic stages E12-21. These cell suspensions were implanted unilaterally into the rostral part of the hippocampus or th...
