Abstract excerpt

Idiopathic Sertoli cell-only syndrome (SCOS) is characterized by azoospermia, small testes, absence of germ cells in the testes, elevated follicle stimulating hormone and normal testosterone concentrations. The Y-chromosome is involved in the regulation of spermatogenesis and in the pathogenesis of a fraction of idiopathic male infertility. An azoospermia factor (AZF) is present on the Y-chromosome long arm...
