OBJECTIVES To investigate the natural courses of mild, moderate and severe idiopathic oligozoospermia, and which factors or semen variables were of utmost importance in predicting the courses. METHODS A total of 208 men (age 29-47years) who were diagnosed with mild, moderate and severe idiopathic oligozoospermia in a 9-year-period between January 2000 and December 2008 were followed up for mo...
BACKGROUND For male hormonal contraception, combined administration of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonists and androgens effectively suppresses spermatogenesis to azoospermia. In non-human primates this suppression can be maintained more easily by androgens alone. METHODS A clinical trial with six healthy volunteers was performed to test this approach in man. Loading doses of 1...
Genetic mechanisms are implicated as a cause of some male infertility, yet are poorly understood. Meiosis is unique to germ cells and essential for reproduction. The synaptonemal complex is a critical component for chromosome pairing, segregation and recombination. Hormad1 is essential for mammalian gametogenesis as knockout male mice are infertile. Hormad1-deficient testes exhibit meiotic arre...
PURPOSE To determine the frequency of genetic alterations in a population of Brazilian infertile men with severe oligozoospermia or non-obstructive azoospermia. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective study of a group of 143 infertile men with severe oligozoospermia or non-obstructive azoospermia from the Andrology Outpatient Clinic of the Human Reproduction Service at the ABC School of Medicine....
INTRODUCTION Our aim was to evaluate the predictive values of factors that indicate successful sperm retrieval in men with nonobstructive azoospermia. MATERIALS AND METHODS We evaluated 85 infertile men with nonobstructive azoospermia who underwent multiple bilateral testicular biopsies. Factors including age, infertility period, surgical history, testicular volume, testicular consistency, se...
BACKGROUND Infertility is a serious social problem in advanced nations, with male factor in half of all cases of infertility. This study was conducted to determine the regenerative effect of bone marrow-derived stem cells in spermatogenesis of infertile hamster. METHODS Twelve adult male hamsters were equally divided into azoospermic and control groups. Busulfan was intraperitoneally used for...
BACKGROUND The androgen receptor (AR) gene contains a polymorphic trinucleotide repeat that encodes a polyglutamine tract in its N-terminal transactivation domain (N- TAD). We aimed to find a correlation between the length of this polymorphic tract and azoospermia or oligozoospermia in infertile men living in Khuzestan, Iran. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this case-control study during two years t...
BACKGROUND Accurate determination of mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene is critical for genetic counselling and treatment of obstructive azoospermia. Of concern is that detection rates with routine CFTR mutation panels vary widely depending on patient ancestry; and such panels have limited value for azoospermic patients, who are more likely to carry...
The aim of the study was to determine whether a prior diagnostic testicle biopsy can predict success or failure of testicular sperm extraction (TESE) with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia caused by testicular failure, and what is the minimum threshold of sperm production in the testis which must be surpassed for spermatozoa to reach the ejacul...
The proposed hypothesis for this study was that seminal testosterone/estradiol levels and/or their ratios may be a good indicator for predicting normal spermatogenesis. The concentrations of estradiol and testosterone in seminal fluid were measured using competitive immunoassay techniques in specimens collected from 192 infertile patients and 103 normospermic men. Infertile patients were subdiv...
