概括
男性的不孕症与较低的miR-339-3p和较高的μ-阿片类受体 (OPRM1) 水平有关,影响精子质量. 这些标记物对诊断男性不孕症有前途.
科学领域:
- 生殖生物学 生殖生物学
- 分子内分泌学分子内分泌学
- 安德罗学与人类学
背景情况:
- 男性不孕症影响了寻求怀孕的大量夫妇.
- μ-阿片类受体 (OPRM1) 和与之相关的微RNA,miR-339-3p,与生殖功能有关,但它们在男性不孕症中的作用尚不清楚.
研究的目的:
- 为了研究 miR-339-3p,OPRM1 mRNA 和 μ-opioid受体蛋白在不孕男性和生育男性的精子中的表达.
- 评估这些分子标记物与精液参数,氧化应激和荷尔蒙特征之间的关联.
主要方法:
- 一项以病例为对照的研究,涉及45名不育男性和45名肥育男性.
- 通过qRT-PCR对miR-339-3p和OPRM1mRNA进行量化.
- 使用ELISA测量μ-阿片类受体蛋白水平.
- 综合精液分析,氧化应激标志物评估和血清激素水平评估.
主要成果:
- 不育的男性显示显著更高的μ-阿片类受体蛋白和OPRM1mRNA水平,显著增加了4.08倍的OPRM1mRNA.
- 相反,miR-339-3p的表达显著降低 (大约为3. 在不育的男性中0.53倍).
- 在miR-339-3p和OPRM1mRNA水平之间发现了强烈的负相关性 (r=-0.704).
- 接收器运行特征分析表明,OPRM1mRNA (AUC=0.916) 和miR-339-3p (AUC=0.914) 的诊断准确度在分辨不育和肥沃个体方面都很好.
结论:
- 降低miR-339-3p的调节和μ-阿片类受体的过度表达与不孕男性的精液质量受损和氧化失衡有关.
- 这些分子标记物,miR-339-3p和OPRM1,显示出男性不孕症诊断指标的潜力.

Infertility in Males
528
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...

MicroRNAs
3.8K
MicroRNA (miRNA) are short, regulatory RNA transcribed from introns (non-coding regions of a gene) or intergenic regions (stretches of DNA present between genes). Several processing steps are required to form biologically active, mature miRNA. The initial transcript, called primary miRNA (pri-mRNA), base-pairs with itself, forming a stem-loop structure. Within the nucleus, an endonuclease enzyme, called Drosha, shortens the stem-loop structure into hairpin-shaped pre-miRNA. After the pre-miRNA...
