概括
丸活检的酶性处理显著增加了非阻塞性精子缺血症 (NOA) 患者的精子检索率. 然而,通过酶性消化成功的精子提取可能与相比仅用机械割相比,累积活产率较低的相关性.
科学领域:
- 生殖医学 生殖医学
- 安德罗学与人类学
- 在体外受精实验室技术实验室技术
背景情况:
- 在非阻塞性亚精子症 (NOA) 中丸精子检索 (SR) 的外科手术方法得到了充分研究,但最佳实验室方案仍在争论中.
- 很少有研究研究实验室程序的影响,如酶性消化,在NOA患者的SR率.
研究的目的:
- 评估丸活检酶处理对诊断为非阻塞性精子缺血症 (NOA) 的患者精子检索 (SR) 率的附加值.
- 评估酶性消化对在细胞内精子注射 (ICSI) 后累积活产 (CLB) 率的影响.
主要方法:
- 一项回顾性单中心队列研究包括了118名NOA患者,他们在2004-2022年期间接受了他们的第一个TESE.
- 丸活检是通过机械割处理的,如果初始SR不足,则使用酶消化 (Collagenase type IV).
- 多变量回归分析调整了男性FSH,女性年龄,以及对酶消化的要求,以预测CLB.
主要成果:
- 酶性消化增加了SR率,从44/90 (48.9%) 需要它的患者中提取精子,而仅用切碎时则是28/118 (23.7%).
- 当精子需要酶消化 (31.8%) 与单独切碎 (64.3%) 时,累积活产率较低.
- 多变量分析表明,需要酶性消化与每次TESE的CLB显著下降有关 (OR:0.23,P=0.01).
结论:
- 丸活检的酶处理提高了NOA患者的SR率,强调了优化实验室协议的重要性.
- 对于SR需要酶化消化的患者,应就潜在较低的累积活产机会进行咨询.
- 这项研究的回顾性设计是一个局限性,但通过专注于NOA患者的第一个TESE,以正常的核型和没有Y-q删除,这些发现得到了加强.

Spermatogenesis
102.6K
Spermatogenesis is the process by which haploid sperm cells are produced in the male testes. It starts with stem cells located close to the outer rim of seminiferous tubules. These spermatogonial stem cells divide asymmetrically to give rise to additional stem cells (meaning that these structures “self-renew”), as well as sperm progenitors, called spermatocytes. Importantly, this method of asymmetric mitotic division maintains a population of spermatogonial stem cells in the male...

Sperm Transport
862
The journey of sperm from its origin to the point of ejaculation begins within the seminiferous tubules of the testis. Here, Sertoli cells produce fluid that propels non-motile sperm through a series of conduits, starting with the straight tubules leading to the rete testis. This interconnected network of tubules acts as the initial pathway for sperm, guiding them into the efferent ductules and then into the epididymis for maturation.
The maturation phase occurs in the epididymis, where sperm...

Infertility in Males
275
Male infertility affects millions of couples worldwide, arising from various factors that impact different stages of the reproductive process. An endocrine imbalance resulting from conditions like hypogonadism, Klinefelter syndrome, or pituitary disorders can disrupt hormone levels and reduce sperm production. Testicular defects, such as tumors, cryptorchidism, atrophic testes, abnormal sperm morphology, and low sperm count or motility, may arise due to genetic factors, structural...
