Testicular Torsion

Testicular Torsion, also known as spermatic cord torsion, is related to orchitis and ischemia. An important gene associated with Testicular Torsion is GPX5 (Glutathione Peroxidase 5), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Nuclear events mediated by NFE2L2 and Immune response IL-23 signaling pathway. The drugs Androgens and Follicle Stimulating Hormone have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include testis and testes, and related phenotypes are homeostasis/metabolism and endocrine/exocrine gland
