Analysis of the DAZ gene family in cryptorchidism and idiopathic male infertility.

Fertility and sterility - 1 Apr 2004

Ferlin Alberto, Bettella Andrea, Tessari Andrea, Salata Elena, Dallapiccola Bruno, Foresta Carlo

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether partial deletions of the DAZ gene family on the Y chromosome are associated with cryptorchidism, similar to that found for complete AZF deletions. DESIGN: Prospective study. SETTING: University hospital. PATIENT(S): A total of 193 azoospermic and severely oligozoospermic men: 95 with a history of cryptorchidism and 98 classified as idiopathic. INTERVENTION(S): A two-part study...
