Spermatogenic failure 48(SPGF48)

MedGen UID:
1761843
Concept ID:
C5436823
Disease or Syndrome
Synonyms: SPERMATOGENIC FAILURE 48; SPGF48
 
Gene (location): M1AP (2p13.1)
 
Monarch Initiative: MONDO:0030846
OMIM®: 619108

Definition

Spermatogenic failure-48 (SPGF48) is characterized by male infertility due to a variable spectrum of severely impaired spermatogenesis, primarily at meiosis and resulting in azoospermia. However, sparse postmeiotic germ cell development and retrieval of sperm in some cases has been reported (Wyrwoll et al., 2020). For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of spermatogenic failure, see 258150. [from OMIM]

Clinical features

From HPO
Azoospermia
MedGen UID:
2150
Concept ID:
C0004509
Disease or Syndrome
Absence of any measurable level of sperm,whereby spermatozoa cannot be observed even after centrifugation of the semen pellet.
Male infertility
MedGen UID:
5796
Concept ID:
C0021364
Disease or Syndrome
The inability of the male to effect fertilization of an ovum after a specified period of unprotected intercourse. Male sterility is permanent infertility.
Oligozoospermia
MedGen UID:
678638
Concept ID:
C0868910
Finding
Reduced count of spermatozoa in the semen, defined as a sperm count below 20 million per milliliter semen.
Spermatogenesis maturation arrest
MedGen UID:
1374029
Concept ID:
C4477100
Finding
Maturation arrest (MA) is defined as germ cells that fail to complete maturation. Uniform MA is characterized by spermatogenic arrest at the same stage of spermatogenesis throughout the seminiferous tubules. MA is subcategorized into early MA, in which only spermatogonia or spermatocytes are found, and late MA, in which spermatids are detected without spermatozoa.
