Testicular expression of TDRD1, TDRD5, TDRD9 and TDRD12 in azoospermia. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Tudor domain-containing proteins (TDRDs) play a critical role in piRNA biogenesis and germ cell development. piRNAs, small regulatory RNAs, act by silencing of transposons during germline development and it has recently been shown in animal ...

Predictors of testicular sperm retrieval in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia: a review
Azoospermia is divided into two categories of obstructive azoospermia and non-obstructive azoospermia. Before 1995, couples with a male partner diagnosed with non-obstructive azoospermia had to choose sperm donation or adoption to have a child. Currently,
