Characteristics of testis-specific phosphoglycerate kinase 2 and its association with human sperm quality

17 Dec 2015

Abstract excerpt

STUDY QUESTION: Is there an association between the expression of phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) 2 in spermatozoa and sperm quality in both elderly men and young asthenozoospermia patients? SUMMARY ANSWER: Spermatozoa from elderly men and young asthenozoospermia patients show decreased expression of PGK2, which has a close positive relationship with sperm quality. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: PGK1 and PGK2 are involved...
