Abstract:
Infertility is an important condition in reproductive medicine. According to this work, there is only one identified physiogenomic relationship on chromosome 5 (CAMK4) for male but there are four identified physiogenomic relationships on chromosome 12 (CD9), chromosome 19 (BSG), chromosome 2 (ADCY3) and chromosome 4 (AFP). Although it has been determined for a long time, there is no clear cut genetic difference between male and female infertility. Systemic approach on the pathophysiology and genomics might provide useful information to better understand the pathogenesis of infertility. In this work, physiogenomics analysis for infertility in male and female was performed.
