Infertility caused by polymorphisms or mutations in spermatogenesis-specific genes.
Spermiogenesis Germ cells differentiate and function to transmit the parental genome to descendant generations. All of the attributes of germ cells that distinguish them from somatic cell lines are related to this prime function. Germ cells differentiate by either oogenesis or spermatogenesis to form eggs and sperm, respectively. Meiosis occurs exclusively in the formation of eggs and sperm and...
متن کاملInfertility caused by intrauterine fetal bone retention: a case report
INTRODUCTION Intrauterine fetal bone retention is a rare complication and the bony fragments probably work like an intrauterine contraceptive device resulting in secondary infertility. Among the scarcely reported cases in the literature, there was no report described the retention of a large number of fetal bones with nearly intact morphology. CASE PRESENTATION The present report described an...
متن کاملPseudo - Bernard - Soulier Syndrome : Thrombocytopenia Caused by Autoantibody to Platelet Glycoprotein lb By Dana
The Bernard-Soulier syndrome is an inherited bleeding disorder that is due to a deficiency in platelet glycoprotein lb. Bernard-Soulier platelets fail to agglutinate in response to ristocetin despite normal levels of factor Vlll:von Willebrand factor. We report a patient who developed severe refractory thrombocytopenia postsurgically while receiving procainamide therapy. Thrombocytopenia was im...
متن کاملRaised serum hCG in a male patient caused by primary jejunal choriocarcinoma.
A rare case of primary choriocarcinoma of the jejunum occurred in a 45 year old Chinese man. This tumour was associated with massive melaena and a markedly raised serum human chorionic gonadotrophin (beta-hCG) concentration. Necropsy examination showed no primary lesion in other possible sites including testes, mediastinum, and pineal gland. Histologically, the tumour showed morphology typical ...
متن کاملProtection against inflammation- and autoantibody-caused fetal loss by the chemokine decoy receptor D6.
Fetal loss in animals and humans is frequently associated with inflammatory conditions. D6 is a promiscuous chemokine receptor with decoy function, expressed in lymphatic endothelium, that recognizes and targets to degradation most inflammatory CC chemokines. Here, we report that D6 is expressed in placenta on invading extravillous trophoblasts and on the apical side of syncytiotrophoblast cell...
