Abstract:
Chromosome aberrant and some gene mutations play an important role in male infertility. A knowledge of a variety of new genetic causes is crucial for the prevention and treatment of male infertility. This review focused on known genetic causes of male infertility, male fertility-related candidate genes from knockout mice, genetic analysis and treatment of infertility in men.
