Intronic variation of the SOHLH2 gene confers risk to male reproductive impairment
Cerván-Martín, Miriam; Suazo-Sánchez, M. Irene; Rivera-Egea, Rocío; Garrido, Nicolás; Luján, Saturnino; Romeu, Gema; Santos-Ribeiro, SamuelObjective: To evaluate whether SOHLH2 intronic variation contributes to the genetic predisposition to male infertility traits, including severe oligospermia (SO) and different nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA) clinical phenotypes. Design: Genetic association study. Setting: Not applicable. Patient(s): Five hundred five cases (455 infertile patients diagnosed with NOA and 50 with SO) and 1,050 healthy controls fr...
Evaluation of Male Fertility-Associated Loci in a European Population of Patien...
Cerván-Martín, Miriam; Bossini-Castillo, Lara; Rivera-Egea, Rocío; Garrido, Nicolás; Luján, Saturnino; Romeu, Gema; Santos-Ribeiro, SamuelInfertility is a growing concern in developed societies. Two extreme phenotypes of male infertility are non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) and severe oligospermia (SO), which are characterized by severe spermatogenic failure (SpF). We designed a genetic association study comprising 725 Iberian infertile men as a consequence of SpF and 1058 unaffected controls to evaluate whether five single-nucleotide polymorphi...
