Aneuploidy and DNA fragmentation in sperm of carriers of a constitutional chromosomal abnormality.

Abstract:

:Among various causes responsible for infertility, it has been admitted for a long time that male infertility can be due to impaired spermatogenesis and/or balanced structural chromosomal abnormalities. Sperm DNA fragmentation is also considered as another cause of infertility. Most of the studies on male infertility have concerned either aneuploidy in the sperm of carriers of constitutional chromosomal abnormalities or sperm DNA fragmentation. This review is aimed at analyzing these 2 parameters in the same patients. Furthermore, we present work on the study of these 2 parameters in the same gametes of 4 carriers of a balanced chromosomal abnormality. Meiotic segregation was analyzed by fluorescent in situ hybridization and DNA fragmentation was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling assay. It was shown that aneuploidy and DNA fragmentation were increased in the sperm of carriers of a balanced chromosomal abnormality. For all 4 carriers of a balanced structural abnormality, there was a 2-5 times higher proportion of spermatozoa with unbalanced chromosomal content and fragmented DNA than among those with normal/balanced content. Moreover, we found a non-random distribution with more gametes with DNA fragmentation when these arose from a particular segregation mode. The mechanism which would tend to explain our results is abortive apoptosis. In conclusion, both meiotic segregation and DNA fragmentation studies should be integrated in the genetic exploration of male carriers of a chromosomal structural abnormality.
