Common Tag STSs in the AZF Region Associated with Azoospermia and Severe Oligospermia in Infertile Egyptian Men
Screening of Yq has become one of the most frequently performed postnatal molecular genetic tests in Egypt. Our purpose was to determine the tag sequence-tagged sites (STSs) in the AZF -region of Yq associated with azoospermia and severe oligospermia in infertile Egyptian men. We analyzed blood samples from 49 infertile men (28 with azoospermia and 21 with severe oligospermia) using multiplex P...
متن کاملThe Prevalence of Y Chromosome Microdeletions in Iranian Infertile Men with Azoospermia and Severe Oligospermia
OBJECTIVE Microdeletions of the Y chromosome long arm are the most common molecular genetic causes of severe infertility in men. They affect three regions including azoospermia factors (AZFa, AZFb and AZFc), which contain various genes involved in spermatogenesis. The aim of the present study was to reveal the patterns of Y chromosome microdeletions in Iranian infertile men referred to Royan In...

متن کاملCytogenetic abnormalities and azoospermia factor (AZF) microdeletions in infertile men from Kuwait
Approximately 15% of couples in the reproductive age group worldwide are affected by infertility, and it is estimated that about 40-50% of infertilities are of male origin. Genetic factor accounts for 10-15% of severe male infertility, including chromosomal aberrations and single gene mutations (Ferlin et al, 2006). After the Klinfelter syndrome, Y chromosomal microdeletions are the most freque...
متن کاملY chromosome microdeletions frequency in idiopathic azoospermia, oligoasthenozoospermia, and oligospermia
Background Genetic factors are candidates for about 30% of male infertility with sperm production-related abnormalities. Y chromosome microdeletions are responsible for around 10% of male infertility. These microdeletions generally occur in azoospermia factor on the Yq. That is often associated with the quantitative reduction of sperm. Objective The aim of this cross-sectional study was to de...
