Mutations in CFTR genes are associated with oligoasthenospermia in infertile men undergoing IVF.

Abstract excerpt

Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutation has been clearly defined in congenital absence of the vas deferens (CAVD), which is an important cause of obstructive azoospermia. However, the association between oligoasthenospermia and CFTR gene mutation remains controversial. To confirm this issue, 151 infertile Chinese men were screened for CFTR mutation by NGS approach, including 18...
