Differential Activation of Immune Effector Processes in Mature Compared to Immature Sacrococcygeal Teratomas.

Conclusion: The broad repertoire of histological elements in SCTs reflects differences in transcriptional regulation rather than differences in gene copy numbers. A paucity of immune response in immature SCTs may be a factor contributing to their uninhibited growth. PMID: 33063585 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
