Project 2 - Human testis cancer and spermatogenesis control by immune cells

Human testis cancer and spermatogenesis control by immune cells: Aims
To delineate the nature and mechanisms of the immune-germ cell dialogue in the testis under healthy and pathological conditions. Functional characterization of infiltrating immune cells will help decipher facets of immune editing during testis cancer development.

2013-2017
Human testis cancer control by local factors; interrogation of Hedgehog and activin signalling pathways and immune cells.
