Screening for Y-chromosome microdeletions in infertile Indian males: utility of simplified multiplex PCR.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE Analysis of the microdeletions in the azoospermia factor (AZF) region of Y chromosome by PCR is an important screening tool in the work-up of infertile males opting for assisted reproductive techniques. In the present study, the Y chromosome microdeletions were analyzed by PCR using primers corresponding to 16 sequence tagged sites (STS) and three genes of the AZF region ...
متن کاملPartial and complete microdeletions of Y chromosome in infertile males from South of Iran
Y chromosome microdeletions are the second genetic cause of male infertility. The incidence of Y chromosome microdeletions can vary considerably depending on several factors, including patient selection criteria, population composition, and diagnostic protocols. They are associated with spermatogenic failure and lead to azoospermia or oligozoospermia. The advance in assisted reproductive techno...
متن کاملSUBMICROSCOPIC DELETIONS OF THE Y CHROMOSOME ARE NOT LIMITED TO AZOOSPERMIC MEN, BUT ARE ALSO DETECTED IN INFERTILE MEN WITH IDIOPATHIC OLIGOZOOSPERMIA
It is now agreed that 10-25% of infertile men with azoospermia have submicroscopic deletions of the Y chromosome long ann (yq), consistent with the proposed location of the azoospermia locus (AZF) in Yq 11.23. However, it is not known whether Yq microdeletions are unique to men with azoospermia or whether they are also observed in infertile men with less severe defects of spermatogenesis (o...
متن کاملHigher frequency of Yq microdeletions in sperm DNA as compared to DNA isolated from blood.
AIM To determine if Yq microdeletion frequency and loci of deletion are similar in two tissues (blood and sperm) of different embryological origin. METHODS The present study included 52 infertile oligozoospermic cases. In each case, DNA was isolated from blood and sperms and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) microdeletion analysis was done from genomic DNA isolated from both the tissues. The PC...
