BACKGROUND It has been hypothesized that Y-q microdeletion can account for significant proportion of infertility in men. There are three nonoverlapping regions referred to as the "azoozpermia factors" AZFa, AZFb, and AZFc from proximal to distal part of Y-q. These have been defined as spermatogenesis loci, this region deletions have been shown to be involved in male azoospermic or severe oligoo...

this study was designed to determine the frequency of y chromosome azf (azoospermia factor ) subregions, microdeletions in patients with idiopathic nonobstructive azoospermia and severe oligozoospermia. subjects included 40 men who had been referred to infertility clinics for assisted reproduction, 37 were azoospermic and 3 had severe oligospermia. medical history and physical exam revealed no ...

background: y chromosomal microdeletion is an important genetic disorder, which may arise due to intrachromosomal recombination between homologous sequences in the male specific region of the human y chromosome. it is frequently associated with the quantitative reduction of sperm. the screening for y chromosomal microdeletions has a great clinical value. objective: to develop a sequence tagged ...

background: microdeletions of the azoospermia factor locus of the long arm of y chromosome are an etiological factor of severe oligozoospermia or azoospermia. objective: the aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of y-chromosome microdeletions in azf region and their role in infertility in pakistani population. materials and methods: the type of deletions in azf locus were detected...

Mất đoạn AZF trên nhiễm sắc thể Y là nguyên nhân gây vô sinh quan trọng ở nam giới. Mối liên giữa mất với nồng độ hormone sản và các đặc điểm lâm sàng bệnh vấn đề cần được làm sáng tỏ. Mục tiêu: khảo sát Y, dục mối một số thiểu tinh tinh. Đối tượng phương pháp nghiên cứu: chúng tôi cứu 161 Kết quả: gặp 15 (chiếm 9,3%), trong đó AZFc hay nhất. Nồng FSH, LH testosterone trung bình lần lượt là: 16...

Background & Aims: The most significant cause of infertility in men is the genetic deletion in the azoospermia factor (AZF) region that is caused by the process of intra- and inter-chromosomal homologous recombination in amplicons. Homologous recombination could also result in partial deletions in AZF region. The aim of this research was to determine the association between the partial AZFc del...
