Y chromosome microdeletions and alterations of spermatogenesis.

Endocrine reviews - 1 Apr 2001

Foresta C, Moro E, Ferlin A

Abstract excerpt

Three different spermatogenesis loci have been mapped on the Y chromosome and named "azoospermia factors" (AZFa, b, and c). Deletions in these regions remove one or more of the candidate genes (DAZ, RBMY, USP9Y, and DBY) and cause severe testiculopathy leading to male infertility. We have reviewed the literature and the most recent advances in Y chromosome mapping, focusing our attention on the correlation...
