动力蛋白相关基因可能在男性不育的病因中起作用,特别是在精子运动受损的情况下。
这篇综述的目的是编制一份可能导致男性因素不育的最重要的动力蛋白相关候选基因列表。
使用关键字\"dynein,\"\"男性,“\”不孕症,并应用严格的纳入标准。还通过使用符合条件的病例对照研究进行了荟萃分析。奇数比率(OR),Z测试分数,并且使用p值为0.05的固定模型确定显著性水平。漏斗图用于检查发表偏倚。
有35项研究符合纳入标准。共有15个基因负责产生动力蛋白结构蛋白,动力蛋白组装因子的产生,并可能与男性不育有关。共有5项病例对照研究符合纳入荟萃分析的条件。动力蛋白相关基因的变异与男性不育的风险增加有关(OR=21.52,95%置信区间8.34-55.50,Z检验=6.35,p<0.05)。异质性的百分比,I2,为47.00%。动力蛋白基因缺乏变异是一个优势,这在统计上是显著的。
本综述的结果表明,动力蛋白合成和动力蛋白组装因子基因的致病变异可能与没有任何其他症状的男性不育的孤立病例有关。
这项研究中提到的基因,参与动力蛋白的生产和组装,可作为未来研究精子运动问题病因的分子靶标。
The
dynein-related genes may have a role in the etiology of male infertility, particularly in cases of impaired sperm motility.
The goal of this
review is to compile a list of the most important
dynein-related candidate genes that may contribute to male factor infertility.
Databases were searched using the keywords \"
dynein,\" \"male,\" \"infertility,\" and by applying strict inclusion criteria. A meta-analysis was also performed by using the eligible case-control studies. The odd ratios (ORs), the Z-test score, and the level of significance were determined using a fixed model with a p value of 0.05. Funnel plots were used to check for publication bias.
There were 35 studies that met the inclusion criteria. There were a total of 15 genes responsible for the production of dynein structural proteins, the production of
dynein assembling factors, and potentially associated with male infertility. A total of five case-control studies were eligible for inclusion in the meta-analysis. Variants in the dynein-related genes were linked to an increased the risk of male infertility (OR = 21.52, 95% confidence interval 8.34-55.50, Z test = 6.35, p < 0.05). The percentage of heterogeneity, I2 , was 47.00%. The lack of variants in the dynein genes was an advantage, and this was statistically significant.
The results from the present
review illustrate that pathogenic variants in genes both for
dynein synthesis and for dynein assembly factors could be associated with isolated cases of male infertility without any other symptoms.
The genes addressed in this study, which are involved in both the production and assembly of dynein, could be used as molecular targets for future research into the etiology of sperm motility problems.
