目的采用基因芯片技术筛查精神发育迟滞伴小阴茎男童的基因组微失衡,探讨Y染色体无精子症因子C区(AZFc)部分缺失对其的致病性。方法提取1例精神发育迟滞伴小阴茎男童(先证者)及其父亲外周血DNA,利用Cyto One Array染色体芯片行全基因组...目的采用基因芯片技术筛查精神发育迟滞伴小阴茎男童的基因组微失衡,探讨Y染色体无精子症因子C区(AZFc)部分缺失对其的致病性。方法提取1例精神发育迟滞伴小阴茎男童(先证者)及其父亲外周血DNA,利用Cyto One Array染色体芯片行全基因组微失衡初筛,之后采用定制4×180K SNP+CNV精神发育相关芯片行全基因组微失衡筛查。选择特异性STS标签s Y1191,s Y1291作为引物,利用PCR特异性扩增11例正常男童,9/20例4×180K SNP+CNV芯片检测异常的精神发育迟滞未伴小阴茎男童,先证者及其父亲的Y染色体AZFc区域。进一步对170例精神发育迟滞未伴小阴茎男童行PCR扩增,分析AZFc区域缺失频率。结果 1Cyto One Array染色体芯片检测发现先证者存在AZFc区域全缺失(chr Y:24646690-28103711),定制4×180K SNP+CNV精神发育相关芯片排除其他精神发育相关基因组微失衡,发现AZFc区域部分缺失(chr Y:24873066-25203027;chr Y:25850255-26245019),结果不同于Cyto One Array染色体芯片。220例精神发育迟滞伴小阴茎男童行4×180K CNV+SNP芯片检测,5例存在Y染色体AZFc区域部分缺失,但缺失起止点不同;4例为已知的致精神发育异常的基因组微失衡。3PCR验证表明先证者及其父亲为AZFc区域b2/b3缺失,此片段缺失同时存在于1/11例正常男童、4/9例精神发育迟滞未伴小阴茎男童。4精神发育迟滞未伴小阴茎男童AZFc区域b2/b3缺失频率为15.1%(27/179)。结论 AZFc区域b2/b3缺失可能不是精神发育迟滞伴小阴茎男童的致病病因,此AZFc区域部分缺失在中国人群中为多态性位点。展开更多

Material and method...To investigate the relation of luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and Testosterone serum levels with partial deletions in the AZFc region in Iranian oligozoospermia males. Material and methods: thirty infertile oligozoospermia and 52 Iranian fertile men included. The hormonal assays were measured by the Radioimmunoassay (RIA). Multiplex polymerase chain reaction (M-PCR) using eight sequence-tagged site (STS) markers were measured on the Yq11 chromosome. Results: The mean of FSH and LH levels in all oligozoospermia males were higher than fertile men (p < 0.001) and testosterone was lower significantly (p < 0.001). Five patients showed partial deletions in AZFc region (four had gr/gr and one had b2/b3 deletions). Six fertile men showed partial deletions (five gr/gr and one b2/b3) with higher level of FSH, LH in their group (p < 0.05). Conclusion: According to high incidence of partial deletions in the AZFc region among Iranian oligozoospermia males, hormonal assay and molecular screening should be advised before considering for ART treatments.展开更多
