Common genetic variation in KATNAL1 non-coding regions is involved in the susce...
Cerván‐Martín, Miriam; Bossini‐Castillo, Lara; Guzmán‐Jiménez, Andrea; Rivera‐Egea, Rocío; Garrido, Nicolás; Lujan, Saturnino; Romeu, GemaBackground: Previous studies in animal models evidenced that genetic mutations of KATNAL1, resulting in dysfunction of its encoded protein, lead to male infertility through disruption of microtubule remodelling and premature germ cell exfoliation. Subsequent studies in humans also suggested a possible role of KATNAL1 single nucleotide polymorphisms in the development of male infertility as a consequence of seve...
Immune and spermatogenesis-related loci are involved in the development of extr...
Cerván-Martín, Miriam; Tüttelmann, Frank; Lopes, Alexandra M.; Bossini-Castillo, Lara; Rivera-Egea, Rocío; Garrido, Nicolás; Lujan, SaturninoWe conducted a genome-wide association study in a large population of infertile men due to unexplained spermatogenic failure (SPGF). More than seven million genetic variants were analysed in 1,274 SPGF cases and 1,951 unaffected controls from two independent European cohorts. Two genomic regions were associated with the most severe histological pattern of SPGF, defined by Sertoli cell-only (SCO) phenotype, name...
