Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background The most serious condition of male infertility is complete Sertoli cell-only syndrome (SCOS), referring to lack of all spermatogenic cells in testes. Genetic cause of SCOS remains to be explored. We aimed to investigate the genetic cause of SCOS and assess the effects of the identified causative variant on human male germ cells. Methods Whole-exome sequencing was performed...
