Contribution of TEX15 genetic variants to the risk of developing severe non-obs...
Guzmán-Jiménez, Andrea; González-Muñoz, Sara; Cerván-Martín, Miriam; Rivera-Egea, Rocío; Garrido, Nicolás; Luján, Saturnino; Santos-Ribeiro, SamuelBackground: Severe spermatogenic failure (SPGF) represents one of the most relevant causes of male infertility. This pathological condition can lead to extreme abnormalities in the seminal sperm count, such as severe oligozoospermia (SO) or non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA). Most cases of SPGF have an unknown aetiology, and it is known that this idiopathic form of male infertility represents a complex condition...
Common Variation in the PIN1 Locus Increases the Genetic Risk to Suffer from Se...
Cerván-Martín, Miriam; Bossini-Castillo, Lara; Guzmán-Jimenez, Andrea; Rivera-Egea, Rocío; Garrido, Nicolás; Luján, Saturnino; Romeu, GemaWe aimed to analyze the role of the common genetic variants located in the PIN1 locus, a relevant prolyl isomerase required to control the proliferation of spermatogonial stem cells and the integrity of the blood-testis barrier, in the genetic risk of developing male infertility due to a severe spermatogenic failure (SPGF). Genotyping was performed using TaqMan genotyping assays for three PIN1 taggers (rs228783...

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...
