Therefore, screening for the IVS8-5T mutation in the CFTR gene may be recommended for men with NOA or severe oligozoospermia seeking assisted reproductive technology (ART).
The infertile men suffering oligozoospermia with MTHFR gene polymorphisms were randomly divided into the folic acid treatment groups receiving folic acid 0.8 mg daily for 3 months and the placebo groups receiving placebo for 3 months.
Down-regulation has been found in the protamine 1 and protamine 2 expression levels in the oligospermia group compared to the proved fertile group with fold change (0.001 and 0.0002 respectively).

Therefore, MYO could be a good supplement for sperm freezing to reduce the detrimental effects of freezing process especially on DNA integrity, which is an important factor in the success of ART, in OAT suffered patients.

Here, we report the generation of the first Vps13b-knockout mouse model and show that male mutant mice are infertile due to oligoasthenoteratozoospermia.
Five individuals with heterozygous pathogenic CFTR variants were identified using targeted NGS in a cohort of 1112 idiopathic infertile men with azoospermia or severe oligozoospermia.
To accomplish this, andrologists, urologists and endocrinologists were asked to report the number of couples already addressed to assisted reproduction techniques which they counseled in the trimester April-June 2018 having a under 35-year-old female partner and at least one among the following untreated conditions: (A) oligoasthenoteratozoospermia and FSH <8 mIU/ml, (B) third-degree varicocele (mono or bilateral form), and (C) leukocytospermia or urogenital infections.
FSH use for treatment of patients with normogonadotropic idiopathic infertility and oligozoospermia is still considered experimental in most countries.
The present study investigated the frequency of chromosome aberrations and AZF microdeletions in infertile patients with nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA) or severe oligozoospermia.
During the last decade, several studies have reported the presence of different polymorphisms in USP26 in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) or severe oligozoospermia suggesting that this gene may be associated with human infertility.
The results indicated that PGAM1 expression was significantly downregulated in the mouse models of busulfan‑induced hypospermatogenesis, compared with those with normal spermatogenesis (P<0.05).
In conclusion, these data indicate that PGAM1 knockdown is associated with busulfan‑induced hypospermatogenesis and contributes to spermatogenic cell apoptosis by regulating the P53/Caspase 3/Caspase 6/Caspase 9 signaling pathway.
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the cellular localisation and expression levels of the DNMT1, DNMT3A and DNMT3B proteins, as well as global DNA methylation profiles in testicular biopsy samples obtained from men with various types of NOA, including hypospermatogenesis (hyposperm), round spermatid (RS) arrest, spermatocyte (SC) arrest and Sertoli cell-only (SCO) syndrome.
A segregating human allele of SPO11 modeled in mice disrupts timing and amounts of meiotic recombination, causing oligospermia and a decreased ovarian reserve†.

Immunohistochemical analysis of CD133 revealed moderate, partial staining in the HS group, compared to substantial, wide-spread staining in the OA group.
The pairs that were uncorrelated in the infertile populations and displayed the best biomarker potential were hsa-miR-942-5p/hsa-miR-1208 (asthenozoospermia), hsa-miR-296-5p/hsa-miR-328-3p (teratozoospermia), hsa-miR-139-5p/hsa-miR-1260a (oligozoospermia), and hsa-miR-34b-3p/hsa-miR-93-3p (UMI).
Five risk alleles were also identified: two linked with SHV (HLA-B*50:01, p = 0.0278; and HLA-C*06:02, p = 0.0461), another one with both SHV and OLI (HLA-DQA1*05:01, P<sub>SHV</sub><sub> </sub> = 0.0444 and P<sub>OLI</sub> =0.0265), and two with OLI (HLA-C*03:03, p = 0.0480; and HLA-DQB1*03:01, p = 0.0499).
The SP humanin concentrations in patients with normospermia were significantly higher than those in patients with oligospermia (p < 0.001), asthenospermia (p = 0.002), and oligoasthenospermia (p < 0.001).
