Polymorphisms in Protamine 1 and Protamine 2 predict the risk of male infertility: a meta-analysis.

Abstract excerpt

Several studies have investigated the association between polymorphisms in protamine 1 and 2 genes and male infertility risk, with inconsistent results to date. This meta-analysis based on the 13 published case-control studies, including 7350 cases and 6167 controls, was performed to further establish the potential association between the 6 common single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs35576928, rs737008, rs35262993,...
