A large proportion of patients with idiopathic spermatogenic failure(SPGF;oligozoospermia or nonobstructive azoospermia[NOA])do not receive a diagnosis despite an extensive diagnostic workup.Recent evidence has shown that the etiology remains undefined in up to 75%of these patients.A number of genes involved in germ-cell proliferation,spermatocyte meiotic divisions,and spermatid development have been called into play in the pathogenesis of idiopathic oligozoospermia or NOA.However,this evidence mainly comes from case reports.Therefore,this study was undertaken to identify the molecular causes of SPGF.To accomplish this,15 genes(USP9Y,NR5A1,KLHL10,ZMYND15,PLK4,TEX15,TEX11,MEIOB,SOHLH1,HSF2,SYCP3,TAF4B,NANOS1,SYCE1,and RHOXF2)involved in idiopathic SPGF were simultaneously analyzed in a cohort of 25 patients with idiopathic oligozoospermia or NOA,accurately selected after a thorough diagnostic workup.After next-generation sequencing(NGS)analysis,we identified the presence of rare variants in the NR5A1 and TEX11 genes with a pathogenic role in 3/25(12.0%)patients.Seventeen other different variants were identified,and among them,13 have never been reported before.Eleven out of 17 variants were likely pathogenic and deserve functional or segregation studies.The genes most frequently mutated were MEIOB,followed by USP9Y,KLHL10,NR5A1,and SOHLH1.No alterations were found in the SYCP3,TAF4B,NANOS1,SYCE1,or RH0XF2 genes.In conclusion,NGS technology,by screening a specific custom-made panel of genes,could help increase the diagnostic rate in patients with idiopathic oligozoospermia or NOA. 展开更多
