To provide better insight into the relationship among the expression behavior in vivo of the three genes in human testis, analysis of MDR1 and MRP gene expression in testicular biopsies was performed and related to the presence of CFTR gene mutations in congenital absence of the vas deferens (CAVD: n = 20) and non-CAVD (n = 30) infertile patients with azoospermia or severe oligozoospermia.
