β-Microseminoprotein (MSMB) is one of the most abundant proteins in human seminal plasma. It has been identified that MSMB increased significantly in oligoasthenoteratozoospermic patients compared with fertile controls. We hypothesized that the functional polymorphism (rs10993994) of MSMB gene could be a risk factor for spermatogenic failure. For this study, 338 patients with idiopathic oligozoospermia or...
