chromosomal defects are relatively frequent in infertile men however, translocations between the y chromosome and autosomes are rare and less than 40 cases of y-autosome translocation have been reported. in particular, only three individuals has been described with a y;21 translocation, up to now. we report on an additional case of an infertile man in whom a y;21 translocation was associated wi...

background: in human, about 25% of implanted embryos are losing 1-2 week following attachment to the uterus. a subset of this population will have three or more consecutive miscarriages which define as repeated pregnancy loss (rpl). introducing the assisted reproductive technologies (arts) made a chance for infertile couples to solve their childless problem. objective:  this study was conducted...

Genetic data corresponding to four negrito populations (two Aeta and two Agta; n = 120) from the Luzon region of the Philippines have been analyzed. These data comprise mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) hypervariable segment 1 haplotypes and haplogroups, Y-chromosome haplogroups and short tandem repeats (STRs), autosomal STRs, and X-chromosome STRs. The genetic diversity and structure of the population...

background: some evidences showed that the secretion of uterine tube vagina and follicular fluid (ff) affects x and y-chromosome populations. sperm selection with x or y chromosome can added to oocyte for gender desired. the isolation of x y sperm have done and all efforts in this field are done to make culture media similar to in vivo condition. the objective of this study was to find if the f...

background: infertility is a health problem which affects about 10-20% of married couples. male factor infertility is involved approximately 50% of infertile couples. most of male infertility is regarding to deletions in the male-specific region of the y chromosome. objective: in this study, the occurrence of deletions in the azf region and association between infertility and paternal age were ...

yersinia enterocolitica is rapidly emerging worldwide as an enteric pathogen and has become a major cause of diarrhea even in developed countries. the aim of this study was to characterize and genetic diversity analysis among y. enterocolitica strains isolated from fish and chicken sources.from 44 strains, 55% (24 strains) found to be positive for y. enterocolitica by colony morphology, biochem...

Y-chromosome short tandem repeats (Y-STRs) are useful tools for identifying paternity origin and male-female mixed samples because of their male-specificity, haploid inheritance and relatively simplicity. We focused on novel Y-STRs deposited in the human Genome database from DYS708 to DYS726. We typed 16 male-specific Y-STRs from males of a Chinese Han population residing in Shanxi Province (no...
