Asthenoteratozoospermia, a prevalent cause of male infertility, lacks well-defined etiology. DNAH12 is special dynein featured by the absence microtubule-binding domain, however, its functions in spermatogenesis remain largely unknown. Through comprehensive genetic analyses involving whole-exome sequencing and subsequent Sanger on infertile patients fertile controls from six distinct families, we unveiled biallelic mutations that co-segregate recessively with infertility studied families....

Multiple morphological abnormalities of the sperm flagella (MMAF) is a severe form asthenozoospermia categorized by immotile spermatozoa with abnormal in ejaculate. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) used to detect pathogenic variants patients MMAF. In this study, novel homozygous frameshift variant (c.6158_6159insT) dynein axonemal heavy chain 8 (DNAH8) from two infertile brothers MMAF consanguineous Pakistani family was identified WES. Reverse transcription-polymerase reaction (RT-PCR) confirmed...

What are some pathogenic mutations for non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) and their effects on spermatogenesis?Biallelic missense frameshift in ADAD2 disrupt the differentiation of round spermatids to spermatozoa causing humans mice.NOA is most severe cause male infertility characterized by an absence sperm ejaculate due impairment spermatogenesis. In mice, lack RNA-binding protein leads a complete epididymides failure spemiogenesis, but spermatogenic human NOA-associated require functional...

The structural integrity of the sperm flagellum is essential for proper function. Flagellar defects can result in male infertility, yet precise mechanisms underlying this relationship are not fully understood. CCDC181, a coiled-coil domain-containing protein, known to localize on flagella and at basal regions motile cilia. Despite knowledge, specific functions CCDC181 biogenesis remain unclear. In study,

Male infertility is a worldwide health issue, affecting 8%-12% of the global population. Oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (OAT) represents severe type male infertility, characterized by reduced sperm count and motility an increased frequency with aberrant morphology. Using whole-exome sequencing, this study identified novel missense mutation (c.848C>A, p.A283E) in coiled-coil domain-containing 34 gene (CCDC34) consanguineous Pakistani family. This rare was predicted to be deleterious affect...

Infertility represents a significant health concern, with sperm quantity and quality being crucial determinants of male fertility. Oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (OAT) is characterized by reduced motility, lower concentration, morphological abnormalities in heads flagella. Although variants several genes have been implicated OAT, its genetic etiologies pathogenetic mechanisms remain inadequately understood. In this study, we identified homozygous nonsense mutation (c.916C>T, p.Arg306*) the...

Abstract Male infertility can result from impaired sperm motility caused by multiple morphological abnormalities of the flagella (MMAF). Distinct projections encircling central microtubules spermatozoal axoneme play pivotal roles in flagellar bending and movement. Mammalian sperm-associated antigen 17 ( SPAG17 ) encodes a conserved axonemal protein cilia flagella, forming part C1a projection apparatus, with functions related to ciliary/flagellar motility, skeletal growth, male fertility....
