Abstract
Purpose: Estrogen receptor (ER) genes play key roles in male and female reproduction. Non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) and severe secretory oligozoospermia (SOL) are the most severe and complex conditions impacting male fertility. This meta-analysis aimed to study the association between PvuII ( rs2234693, 397T>C ), XbaI ( rs9340799, 351G>A ), AluI (1730G>A, rs4986938), and RsaI (1082G>A, rs1256049) polymorphisms and spermatogenic failure.
Materials and methods: The literature in PubMed, Medline, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China Science and Technology Journal Database, WanFang data, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases were systematically searched, and a meta-analysis was conducted to investigate the association between polymorphism in estrogen receptors and spermatogenic failure. According to a set criterion, 10 studies were included for analyses.
Results: ER α XbaI polymorphism was a decreased risk of NOA. The ER α PvuII polymorphisms does not associate with NOA and SOL. ER β AluI polymorphism increased the risk of NOA in Caucasian population. ER β RsaI polymorphism was a decreased risk of NOA and SOL in Caucasian males.
Conclusion: The ER α XbaI and ER β RsaI polymorphisms are associated with the risk of NOA and SOL.
期刊介绍:
As the official journal of the Urology and Nephrology Research Center (UNRC) and the Iranian Urological Association (IUA), Urology Journal is a comprehensive digest of useful information on modern urology. Emphasis is on practical information that reflects the latest diagnostic and treatment techniques. Our objectives are to provide an exceptional source of current and clinically relevant research in the discipline of urology, to reflect the scientific work and progress of our colleagues, and to present the articles in a logical, timely, and concise format that meets the diverse needs of today’s urologist.
Urology Journal publishes manuscripts on urology and kidney transplantation, all of which undergo extensive peer review by recognized authorities in the field prior to their acceptance for publication. Accordingly, original articles, case reports, and letters to editor are encouraged.
