Mitochondrial DNA deletions and nuclear DNA fragmentation in testicular and epididymal human sperm

1 Jun 2002

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: There are still concerns about the safety of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) due to its brief clinical record and lack of animal testing. Testicular and epididymal sperm are now used routinely for ICSI in patients with obstructive azoospermia. The use of such immature sperm compounds fears, since little is known of their mitochondrial and nuclear DNA quality. METHODS: A modified long...
