Journal ArticleDOI
Klinefelter's syndrome
TL;DR: Patients with Klinefelter's syndrome, including the non-mosaic type, need no longer be considered irrevocably infertile, because intracytoplasmic sperm injection offers an opportunity for procreation even when there are no spermatozoa in the ejaculate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Screening for deletions of the y chromosome involving the daz (deleted in azoospermia) gene in azoospermia and severe oligozoospermia
Manuela Simoni,Jörg Gromoll,Bernd Dworniczak,C. Rolf,K. Abshagen,Axel Kamischke,Cesare Carani,D. Meschede,Hermann M. Behre,Jürgen Horst,Eberhard Nieschlag +10 more
TL;DR: The estimated frequency of deletions involving the DAZ locus is 3% in azoospermic-severely oligozoospermic men consulting an infertility clinic, and polymerase chain reaction amplification of theDAZ loci is useful for the diagnosis of microdeletions of the Y chromosome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mutational analysis of the follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) receptor in normal and infertile men: identification and characterization of two discrete FSH receptor isoforms.
Manuela Simoni,Jörg Gromoll,Wolfgang Höppner,Axel Kamischke,Thorsten Krafft,Daniel Stähle,Eberhard Nieschlag +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that mutations of the F SH receptor or the FSH receptor genotype do not play a pathogenic role in male idiopathic infertility and different isoforms of theFSH receptor with similar functional properties exist in normal and infertile men.
Journal ArticleDOI
Testosterone levels in men with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with or without glucocorticoid therapy.
Axel Kamischke,D E Kemper,M A Castel,M Lüthke,C. Rolf,Hermann M. Behre,H Magnussen,Eberhard Nieschlag +7 more
TL;DR: Glucocorticoid treatment appears to aggravate hypogonadism and a therapeutic study using testosterone in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease receiving glucocortioid medication appears warranted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inverse correlation between sperm concentration and number of androgen receptor CAG repeats in normal men.
Sigrid von Eckardstein,Annemarie Syska,Jörg Gromoll,Axel Kamischke,Manuela Simoni,Eberhard Nieschlag +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown that men with short CAG repeats have the highest sperm output within the normal fertile population and play a predominant role in male infertility.
