Asthenozoospermia and Fertility [PDF]
Minia Journal of Medical Research, 2019 Background: Asthenozoospermia is a condition associated with low or absent sperm motility in fresh ejaculate. Absolute asthenozoospermia, i.e. 100% immotile sperm, is reported in 1of 5000 men.

DEFB126 polymorphisms and association with idiopathic asthenozoospermia in China
Asian Journal of Andrology, 2022 Idiopathic asthenozoospermia, a common factor in male infertility, is characterized by altered sperm motility function in fresh ejaculate. Although the β-defensin 126 (DEFB126) protein is associated with asthenozoospermia, DEFB126 gene polymorphisms have

Transient Complete Asthenozoospermia
Journal of Human Reproductive SciencesLimited research exists on the mechanisms underlying asthenozoospermia associated with acquired ciliary dyskinesia. Primary ciliary dyskinesia links respiratory pathology with infertility and provides a basis for a potential mechanism.

Experimental and Molecular Pathology, 2020 Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have a particular expression in the testicular tissue and exhibit a regulatory function on the reproduction system. ANO1-AS2 (linc02584), as an lncRNA is located near the anoctamin1 (ANO1) gene. ANO1 is an important component of the transmembrane system exhibiting expression modifications in the idiopathic infertile men ...
