ThePGAM4gene in non-obstructive azoospermia [PDF]
Systems Biology in Reproductive Medicine, 2013 Non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) is considered to be a severe infertility factor due to impaired spermatogenesis with the consequent absence of spermatozoa in the ejaculate. However, the underlying etiology and mechanism(s) remain elusive. The aim of this study was to investigate the mutation and association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs ...
