Potential biomarkers of non-obstructive azoospermia identified in microarray gene expression analysis

ABSTRACT: We analyzed gene expression profiles of human testicular biopsies in men with idiopathic nonobstructive azoospermia. Using new generation oligonucleotide microarray platform GeneChip® Human Gene 1.0 ST, we identified genes which could be potential biomarkers of azoospermia and molecular indicators that could determine a particular stage of impaired spermatogenesis. Thus, we shed light on genes which were had so far been weakly characterized and which were had never related to infertility before. These studies also included the comparative analysis of the hierarchical clustering of gene expression profile with histopathological data provided for azoospermic patients.

Potential biomarkers of non-obstructive azoospermia identified in microarray gene expression analysis

Project description:We analyzed gene expression profiles of human testicular biopsies in men with idiopathic nonobstructive azoospermia. Using new generation oligonucleotide microarray platform GeneChipM-BM-. Human Gene 1.0 ST, we identified genes which could be potential biomarkers of azoospermia and molecular indicators that could determine a particular stage of impaired spermatogenesis. Thus, we shed light on genes which were had so far been weakly characterized and which were had never related to infertility before. These studies also included the comparative analysis of the hierarchical clustering of gene expression profile with histopathological data provided for azoospermic patients. We analyzed 31 testicular biopsy samples with Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST microarrays. 27 of them were obtained from patients with various types of NOA and 4 with normal spermatogenesis.

Comparative proteomics analysis of FFPE testicular tissue from men with obstructive and non-obstructive azoospermia

Project description:The project aimed to compare testicular proteomes from patients with obstructive and non-obstructive azoospermia in order to identify molecular signatures involved in spermatogenesis as well to identify candidate biomarkers for discriminating between different types of azoospermia. The samples used in this study were formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) testicular tissues obtained by biopsy from men with clinical diagnosis of azoospermia. Samples were grouped according to the histopathological report in 3 groups: 1) Spermatogenesis (obstructive azoospermia), 2) Hypospermatogenesis and 3) Sertoli cell only syndrome (SCO). Patients were aged 31–46 years with no differences among groups regarding age (Median age (Hypospermatogenesis) =35; Median age (SCO) =34 and Median age (Spermatogenesis) =39). Each group had 9 samples or 27 samples in total were used for the comparative proteomics analysis by label-free data-independent LC-MS/MS.

Potential biomarkers tah could help to determine the prognosis of azoospermia treatment

Project description:We analyzed gene expression profiles of human testicular biopsies in men with idiopathic nonobstructive azoospermia who underwent therapy with hCG/rFSH. Using new generation oligonucleotide microarray platform GeneChipÂ® Human Gene 1.0 ST, we identified genes which could be potential prognostic biomarkers of azoospermia treatment. We analyzed 6 testicular biopsy samples with Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST microarrays. 3 of them were obtained from patients with NOA, who positively responded to hormonal therapy and 3 non-respoders.

In situ transcriptomic analysis of spermatocytes in non-obstructive azoospermia reveals senescence-like states in arrested spermatocytes

Project description:To investigate in situ transcriptome of spermatocytes in non-obstructive azoospermia , we microdissected spermatocytes in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded testicular biopsy tissue from two types of non-obstructive azoospermia and obstructive azoospermia as a control, and then constructed cDNA libraries based on Smart-3SEQ method.

ESX1 gene as a potential candidate responsible for male infertility in nonobstructive azoospermia

Project description:Infertility is a problem that affects around 15% of couples. In 40-50% of these couples male infertility is involved. The cause of male infertility is still poorly diagnosed and treated. One of the entities of male infertility is disturbed spermatogenesis, which can lead to nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA), with no sperm cells in the ejaculate. The whole genome sequencing (WGS) allow us to identify novel rare variants in potentially NOA-associated genes. One of them was ESX1 gene. The aim of the study was to activate the ESX1 gene using CRISPRa technology in testicular seminoma cells - TCam2. In this study we achieved the successful activation of ESX1 gene in genetically modified TCam-2 cells using CRISPRa system, in which the expression level of ESX1 gene was significantly higher compared to WT cells and negative control with non-targeted sgRNA (p<0.01). These results were successfully confirmed at protein level by using Western blotting and immunofluorescence. Using RNA-seq analysis we determined the genes that were potentially regulated by ESX1 gene. Such genes associated with proliferation and apoptosis process: CCND1, KDR, WNT11, LGALS3, LINC00662, PDE1C, RPS6KA5, FGF4, NANOG, L1TD1, which were differently expressed in cells with ESX1 gene activation in comparison to the controls (p<0.05).

Altered mRNA profile in testis of patients with“secondary idiopathic non-obstructive azoospermia”

Project description:Background: Non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) is the most severe form of male infertility. Currently known causative factors, including congenital and several acquired causes can only account for approximately 30% of NOA cases. Causes for most patients with NOA remains unclear, which were known as idiopathic NOA (iNOA). However, whether iNOA is congenital defects or acquired abnormalities is a confusing problem due to the delayed diagnosis of this frustrating situation until childbearing age. Materials and Methods: In this study, several patients who were diagnosed as iNOA at this stage, but with a history of natural conceptions with female before were enrolled and defined as “secondary idiopathic NOA”. As little was known about these cases, we performed the mRNA expression profiling by Next-generation sequencing (NGS) in this three patients and other three patients with obstructive azoospermia (OA) as controls. Results: A series of mRNAs were found to be altered in testicular tissues between “secondary idiopathic NOA” and controls, including 6028 downregulated and 3402 upregulated mRNAs. GO analysis and KEGG analysis revealed a range of GO and KEGG terms, such as cellular process involved in reproduction, protein digestion and absorption, etc. Conclusion: Overall, this study introduces a novel classification called “secondary idiopathic NOA” in iNOA. We provide a global view of the altered mRNAs involved in spermatogenetic failure in these cases.

Untargeted metabolomic profiling of seminal plasma in nonobstructive azoospermia men: A noninvasive detection of spermatogenesis

Project description:Male factor infertility is involved in almost half of all infertile couples. Lack of the ejaculated sperm owing to testicular malfunction has been reported in 6-10% of infertile men, a condition named nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA). In this study, we investigated untargeted metabolomic profiling of the seminal plasma in NOA men using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and advance chemometrics. In this regard, the seminal plasma fluids of 11 NOA men with TESE-negative, nine NOA men with TESE-positive and 10 fertile healthy men (as a control group) were collected. Quadratic discriminate analysis (QDA) technique was implemented on total ion chromatograms (TICs) for identification of discriminatory retention times. We developed multivariate classification models using the QDA technique. Our results revealed that the developed QDA models could predict the classes of samples using their TIC data. The receiver operating characteristic curves for these models were >0.88. After recognition of discriminatory retention time's asymmetric penalized least square, evolving factor analysis, correlation optimized warping and alternating least squares strategies were applied for preprocessing and deconvolution of the overlapped chromatographic peaks. We could identify 36 discriminatory metabolites. These metabolites may be considered discriminatory biomarkers for different groups in NOA.
