Grant Activity:
Heat-shock induced alternative splicing and its role in oligoasthenoteratozoospermia
Purpose:
Within a subset of infertile men diagnosed with Oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (OAT), the reason why they produce low numbers of sperm, with poor motility and morphology is because during spermatogeneisis, an imbalance in the level of proteins regulating alternative splicing occurs. This comes about through heat stress. This in turn, causes lower amounts of protein phosphatase isoform 2, a known cause of OAT.
