ESX1 gene expression as a robust marker of residual spermatogenesis in azoospermic men
31 Mar 2010
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: It would be of value to identify ongoing spermatogenesis molecular markers which can predict successful sperm recovery in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia undergoing conventional or microsurgical testicular sperm extraction (TESE/microTESE). ESX1 is an X-linked homeobox gene expressed in testis, placenta, brain and lung in humans and specifically in pre- and post-meiotic germ cells of the...
