Genetic basis of male fertility.
We are in the age of genetic discovery. Now the human genome has been completely sequenced1, there will be increasing understanding and ability to manipulate biochemical pathways downstream of genes. At the same time, further development of in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection(ICSI) will enable procreation in situations that were formerly impossible and when there m...
متن کاملThe Effect of Nutrition on Female and Male Fertility
A myriad of factors can influence fertility (and the lack there of), which can for instance be impaired by environmental elements, including exposure to toxic substances, but also the maternal and paternal age at the time of conception, the parents’ smoking habits and alcohol intake or genetic defects. The present publication will however focus on the role of nutrition in fertility, more specif...
متن کاملSymposium: Genetic aspects of male (in)fertility
The Y chromosomal azoospermia factor (AZF) is essential for human spermatogenesis. It has been mapped by molecular deletion analyses to three subintervals in Yq11, AZFa, AZFb, and AZFc, containing a number of genes of which at least some control, post-transcriptionally, the RNA metabolism of other spermatogenesis genes, functionally expressed at different phases of the spermatogenic cycle. Intr...
متن کاملGenetic Variation of Choline Dehydrogenase Gene in Idiopathic Male Infertility
Infertility can be caused by an unexplained reduction in semen quality in males who present asnormal on physical examination and endocrine testing. There is some evidence that aberrantmetabolism of micronutrients such as choline may play a causative role in male factorinfertility. Choline is a crucial factor in the regulation of sperm membrane structure andmotility, and this nutrient plays an i...
متن کاملNutrition and female fertility.
The relation between nutrition and reproduction is of great practical importance both in human medicine and in animal husbandry. A great mass of data has already been accumulated on reproductive phenomena in nutritionally deficient states, but it can be said that progress in analysis of the problem by means of well-controlled experiments in the light of modern knowledge of nutritional science i...
