Cytogenetic Abnormalities in Infertile Men in the Prešov Region (Slovakia)

Chromosome anomalies belong to genetic factors, which participate on etiology of reproductive failure. The aim of the study was to investigate the frequency of chromosome abnormalities in infertile men in the Prešov region in Slovakia (1998-2014). Karyotyping using G-banding and C-banding methods was performed in 1426 subjects including 948 infertile men and 478 controls. Karyotype analyses rev...

Cytogenetic 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...

Somatic cytogenetic and azoospermia factor gene microdeletion studies in infertile men.

The objective of the present study was to determine the frequency of somatic chromosomal anomalies and Y chromosomal microdeletions (azoospermia factor genes, AZF) in infertile males who seek assisted reproduction. These studies are very important because the assisted reproduction techniques (mainly intracytoplasmic sperm injection) bypass the natural selection process and some classical chromo...

Identity suffering in infertile men

The suffering caused by infertility in a man can have multiple aspects. It can display a narcissistic dimension, an objectal dimension (object-libido) turned toward others or/and an identity dimension. Two clinical case reports were used here to (i) illustrate all these aspects of infertility suffering, (ii) to evidence the difficulty for infertile men to speak about their infertility and (iii)...

Epigenetic germline mosaicism in infertile men.

Imprinted genes are expressed either from the paternal or the maternal allele, because the other allele has been silenced in the mother's or father's germline. Imprints are characterized by DNA methylation at cytosine phosphate guanine sites. Recently, abnormal sperm parameters and male infertility have been linked to aberrant methylation patterns of imprinted genes in sperm DNA. However, these...
