Genetics and molecular biology of male infertility among Iranian population: an update.

ABSTRACT: Infertility is one of the main social and health problems among young couples. Although a noticeable ratio of infertilities are asymptomatic, about half of the cases are observed among males. Various environmental factors such as life style, dietary patterns, and pathogens are associated with male infertility. Mutations and chromosomal abnormalities are also the most important genetic risk factors of male infertility. Similar to other populations, there is a dramatically rising trend of male infertility among Iranian. Regarding the high ratio of asymptomatic cases, it is required to clarify the molecular biology and cellular processes involved in male infertility in this population to suggest an efficient panel of diagnostic markers. In this review, we have summarized all of the cellular a
