Abstract excerpt

Carnitine is an important factor in the initiation of progressive sperm motility and end stage of sperm maturation. The compound is transported by an organic cation/carnitine transporter (OCTN2), which is expressed in the male reproductive system. OCTN2 is encoded by SLC22A5 gene with proven -207C>G functional polymorphism. The aim of the case-control study was to investigate a potential association between the...
