Mutations of MSH5 in nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA) and rescued via in vivo gene editing

TLDR
It is concluded that the four-nucleotide deletion is the pathological cause of NOA in patient P8944, and the inactivation of MSH5 causes defects in germ cell development in the mouse model.

Human serum from SARS-CoV-2-vaccinated and COVID-19 patients shows reduced binding to the RBD of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant

TL;DR: In this paper , the binding of the Omicron RBD to the human angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 receptor (ACE2) and the ability of human sera from COVID-19 patients or vaccinees in comparison to Wuhan, Beta, or Delta RBD variants were analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Meiotic recombination: insights into its mechanisms and its role in human reproduction with a special focus on non-obstructive azoospermia.

TL;DR: The cumulative results suggest that variants of meiotic recombination-related genes can cause human subfertility or infertility, especially NOA, and should be avoided when an NOA-affected individual carries definite disease-causing mutations of a meiotic gene.
Journal ArticleDOI

OUP accepted manuscript

TL;DR: In this article , the molecular mechanisms of meiotic recombination and related human infertility disorders, particularly male infertility caused by non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA), were investigated.

A comprehensive analysis of the mutational landscape of the newly emerging Omicron (B.1.1.529) variant and comparison of mutations with VOCs and VOIs

TL;DR: In this article , the authors comprehensively analyzed Omicron's mutational landscape and compared mutations with VOC/VOI, and analyzed SNVs throughout the genome, and AA variants (NSP and SP) with high mutation prevalence (> 75% frequency) of OmicRON, which demonstrated eight mutations with > 90% prevalence in ORF1a and 29 mutations with ≥ 75% prevalence of S-glycoprotein.

Germline stem cells in human

TL;DR: A review of current advances in these embryonic and adult germline stem cells, and the induced PGCLCs in humans, provide an overview of molecular mechanisms underlying the development and differentiation of the stem cells and outline their physiological functions, pathological implications, and clinical applications as mentioned in this paper .

MutS homolog 4 localization to meiotic chromosomes is required for chromosome pairing during meiosis in male and female mice

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that MSH4 is present in the nuclei of spermatocytes early in prophase I and that it forms discrete foci along meiotic chromosomes during the zygotene and pachytene stages of meiosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mammalian MutS homologue 5 is required for chromosome pairing in meiosis

TL;DR: Results show that normal Msh5 function is essential for meiotic progression and, in females, gonadal maintenance, and that this meiotic failure leads to a diminution in testicular size and a complete loss of ovarian structures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutations in MSH5 in primary ovarian insufficiency

TL;DR: The studies confirmed that perturbation of genes involved in DNA damage repair could lead to non-syndromic POI and the underlying mechanism-inability to repair DNA damage-will receive increasing attention with respect to POI.

In vivo microinjection and electroporation of mouse testis.

TL;DR: The main advantages of the electroporation technique are fast performance in combination with low effort as well as the moderate technical equipment and skills required compared to alternative techniques.
