7.6. The impact of vincristine on testicular development and function in childhood cancer

I Clark , MFH Brougham , N Spears , RT Mitchell

Brief summary: This is a systematic review on the effects of vincristine-containing regimens, commonly considered to have low gonadotoxicity, on human prepubertal testis, after the reports of testicular tissue abnormalities and severely impaired fertility due to vincristine exposure in prepubertal rodents.Twenty-four studies were identified that reported testicular development and fertility after treatment with vincristine-containing regimens. Only 9/24 ...

J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2018 Dec 21. [Epub ahead of print]. doi: 10.1210/jc.2018-01759.This study aimed to investigate Human fetal adrenal (HFA) steroidogenesis by analyzing adrenal glands from 1st and 2nd trimester. Steroidogenesis in the HFA is tightly regulated throughout the first and second trimesters, which is crucial because the adrenal steroid hormones affect the overall intrauterine endocri...
