Spermatogenic failure 14(SPGF14)

MedGen UID:
862891
Concept ID:
C4014454
Disease or Syndrome
Synonym: SPGF14
 
Gene (location): ZMYND15 (17p13.2)
 
Monarch Initiative: MONDO:0014366
OMIM®: 615842

Definition

Any azoospermia in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the ZMYND15 gene. [from MONDO]

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.
Round spermatid arrest
MedGen UID:
1386128
Concept ID:
C4476926
Finding
A failure of spermatogenesis to progress beyond the round spermatid stage. The round spermatid is the first haploid cells produced during spermatogenesis and normally further develop into mature spermatozoa. This abnormality can be visualized with testicular biopsy and is characterized seminiferous tubules with increased numbers of round spermatids with few or no mature spermatozoa.
Abnormal prolactin level
MedGen UID:
868057
Concept ID:
C4022448
Finding
Abnormal circulating luteinizing hormone concentration
MedGen UID:
663319
Concept ID:
C0580438
Finding
An anomaly of the circulating level of luteinizing hormone (LH).
Abnormal circulating testosterone concentration
MedGen UID:
663334
Concept ID:
C0580454
Finding
An anomalous concentration of testosterone in the blood.
Elevated circulating follicle stimulating hormone level
MedGen UID:
867192
Concept ID:
C4021550
Finding
An elevated concentration of follicle-stimulating hormone in the blood.
