Testis developmental gene expression in cryptorchid boys at risk of azoospermia

ABSTRACT: Despite timely and successful surgery, 32% of patients with bilateral and 10% with unilateral cryptorchidism will develop azoospermia. Cryptorchid boys at risk of azoospermia display a typical testicular histology of impaired mini-puberty at the time of the orchidopexy. During mini-puberty increased gonadotropin and testosterone secretion stimulate transformation of gonocytes into Ad spermatogonia. In azoospermia risk group this transformation is to a great extent impaired. This study aimed to analyze data on whole genome expression signatures of undescended testes at risk of developing azoospermia.

Transcription profiling of testis biopsies to investigate testis developmental gene expression in cryptorchid boys at risk of azoospermia

Project description:Despite timely and successful surgery, 32% of patients with bilateral and 10% with unilateral cryptorchidism will develop azoospermia. Cryptorchid boys at risk of azoospermia display a typical testicular histology of impaired mini-puberty at the time of the orchidopexy. During mini-puberty increased gonadotropin and testosterone secretion stimulate transformation of gonocytes into Ad spermatogonia. In azoospermia risk group this transformation is to a great extent impaired. This study aimed to analyze data on whole genome expression signatures of undescended testes at risk of developing azoospermia. Twenty-three testicular biopsies from 22 boys were analyzed (19 testes from 18 boys with cryptorchidism) and 4 contralateral descended testes from patients with testicular agenesis. Expression profiling identified 483 genes not or under-expressed in the azoospermia risk group compared with the control and LAZR groups. Annotated loci were associated with spermatogenesis. Other significant genes were cellular defense response genes and hormone controlled loci involved in spermatogenesis. Some genes transcribed in normal adult meiotic and post-meiotic germ cells are activated in healthy juvenile Ad spermatogonia. Thus, molecular events initiating the testicular expression program at the onset of puberty and maintaining it during adulthood occur very early in prepubertal testes. This molecular event is to a great extent impaired in HAZR group lacking Ad spermatogonia (stem cells for spermatozoa) indicating impaired mini puberty.

Differential Gene Expression in Cryptorchid Testes

Project description:<p>Differential Gene Expression in Cryptorchid Testes Study uses whole-genome RNA profiling of testicular biopsies to determine a potential causative role of isolated congenital cryptorchidism in azoospermia and/or infertility in the context of our previously published GeneChip data. Cryptorchid patients, aged 7 months to 5 years and otherwise healthy, were enrolled in this prospective study. During surgery, testicular tissue biopsies were obtained for histological examination and RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq). Fifteen patients were selected based on the histological results and were divided into two groups. Seven were classified as belonging to the high infertility risk (HIR) and eight to the low infertility risk (LIR) group. Cryptorchid boys in the high infertility risk group lacked transformation of gonocytes into Ad spermatogonia due to impaired mini puberty. This group of patients will be infertile despite successful surgery.</p>

Potential biomarkers of non-obstructive azoospermia identified in microarray gene expression analysis

Project description:We analyzed gene expression profiles of human testicular biopsies in men with idiopathic nonobstructive azoospermia. Using new generation oligonucleotide microarray platform GeneChipM-BM-. Human Gene 1.0 ST, we identified genes which could be potential biomarkers of azoospermia and molecular indicators that could determine a particular stage of impaired spermatogenesis. Thus, we shed light on genes which were had so far been weakly characterized and which were had never related to infertility before. These studies also included the comparative analysis of the hierarchical clustering of gene expression profile with histopathological data provided for azoospermic patients. We analyzed 31 testicular biopsy samples with Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST microarrays. 27 of them were obtained from patients with various types of NOA and 4 with normal spermatogenesis.

In situ transcriptomic analysis of spermatocytes in non-obstructive azoospermia reveals senescence-like states in arrested spermatocytes

Project description:To investigate in situ transcriptome of spermatocytes in non-obstructive azoospermia , we microdissected spermatocytes in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded testicular biopsy tissue from two types of non-obstructive azoospermia and obstructive azoospermia as a control, and then constructed cDNA libraries based on Smart-3SEQ method.

Biomarkers in semen/urine from non-obstructive azoospermia patients to predict the presence of testicular spermatozoa and spermatogonia

Project description:About half of testicular sperm extraction (TESE) procedures in men with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA), including men with Klinefelter syndrome (KS), are unsuccessful. To avoid unnecessary invasive surgery, biomarkers for spermatozoa have been studied and identified. In addition, markers for spermatogonia in testis tissue have been researched. This study aimed to find biomarkers in semen and/or urine of NOA patients to predict the presence of spermatogonia in the testis. This would especially be interesting for young boys. Differentially expressed miRNAs were identified (1) between samples from patients with and those of patients without a positive TESE procedure as well as (2) between TESE negative patients with and those without spermatogonia. A total of ten up-regulated miRNAs (seven in seminal plasma and three in urine) were found in the TESE-negative/spermatogonia-positive group compared to the TESE-negative/spermatogonia-negative group. These miRNAs could become biomarkers for spermatogonia, however, more research is necessary.

Potential biomarkers tah could help to determine the prognosis of azoospermia treatment

Project description:We analyzed gene expression profiles of human testicular biopsies in men with idiopathic nonobstructive azoospermia who underwent therapy with hCG/rFSH. Using new generation oligonucleotide microarray platform GeneChipÂ® Human Gene 1.0 ST, we identified genes which could be potential prognostic biomarkers of azoospermia treatment. We analyzed 6 testicular biopsy samples with Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST microarrays. 3 of them were obtained from patients with NOA, who positively responded to hormonal therapy and 3 non-respoders.
