Expression profile of AZF genes in testicular biopsies of azoospermic men

26 Aug 2006

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The Y-chromosome AZF regions include genes whose functions and specific roles in spermatogenesis have not been fully clarified. This study investigated the expression of several AZF (USP9Y, DDX3Y/DDX3Yt1, EIF1AY and PRY) and USP9X transcripts in testicular biopsies of 89 azoospermic men who had been classified by histology and cytology assessments. METHODS: Expression was analysed by RT-PCR, and some...
