摘要
目的:探讨精子线粒体MTCYB、MTATP6基因突变与弱精子症的关系。方法:提取80例成年男性弱精子症和20例活力正常者的精子mtDNA,设计PCR引物并扩增MTCYB、MTATP6基因,PCR产物纯化后进行序列测定和BLAST序列比对。结果:在80例弱精子症样本中有60例同时扩增出MTCYB、MTATP6片段,16例仅扩增出MTATP6片段,4例仅扩增出MTCYB片段。在20例精子活力正常的样本中均同时扩增出MTCYB、MTATP6片段。弱精子症样本中MTCYB和MTATP6基因的缺失率分别为20%和5%。扩增片断的序列分析发现,在弱精子症样本中,MTATP6基因出现G8887A的点突变,突变率为20%,而MTCYB基因未见有规律的突变。精子活力正常的样本中MTCYB、MTATP6基因未检测到明显的点突变。结论:精子线粒体MTCYB和MTATP6的基因缺失以及MTATP6基因的G8887A突变可能影响成年男性的精子活力。
Objective: To explore the correlation of the mutation of MTCYB and MTATP6 genes in sperm mitochondria with asthenospermia. Methods: We extracted mtDNA from 80 semen samples of asthenospermia and 20 of normal sperm motility, amplified the MTCYB and MTATP6 genes by PCR, and analyzed their mutation by sequencing and BLAST matching. Results: The deletion of both MTCYB and MTATP6 were detected in 20 of the 80 asthenospermia samples, MTCYB deletion in 16 and MTATP6 deletion in 4, accounting for 20% and 5% respectively. Sequencing and BLAST matching revealed G8887A mutation in the MTATP6 gene in the asthenospermia samples, with a mutation rate of 20% , while no regular mutation was noted in MTCYB. Neither significant deletion nor mutation was observed in any of the 20 samples of normal sperm motility. Conclusion : Both the deletion and mutation of MTCYB and MTATP6 genes in sperm mitochondria might affect sperm motility in adults.
