Выявлено явное различие полных и частичных AZFc-делеций по структуре форм патозооспермии и концентрации сперматозоидов. Средние значения концентрации сперматозоидов для носителей делеций b2/b4, gr/gr и b2/b3 составили 0,37 ± 0,13; 12,2 ± 7,1 и 30,3 ± 5,3 млн/мл соответственно. Выраженное угнетение сперматогенеза, характеризующееся наличием секреторной азооспермии и олигозооспермии тяжелой степени, обнаружено у 93, 42 и 57 % мужчин с делециями b2/b4, b2/b3 и gr/gr соответственно. При количественном кариологическом анализе незрелых половых клеток из осадка эякулята выявлены признаки нарушения деления и созревания незрелых половых клеток: от частичного блока на допахитенных стадиях профазы I мейоза и/или делений созревания вплоть до полного угнетения сперматогенеза. Более мягкие нарушения сперматогенеза, характеризующиеся наличием олигозооспермии среднетяжелой или легкой степени либо астенозооспермии и/или тератозооспермии, отмечены у 7; 20; 30 % и 0; 38; 10 % носителей делеций b2/b4, b2/b3 и gr/gr соответственно.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Spermatogenetic defects were analyzed in the cohort of 218 russian infertile men with various AZFc region deletions of the Y chromosome. Clear differences were found in both the percentage of pathozoospermia forms and sperm concentration between infertile men with complete (b2/b4) and partial (b2/b3 and gr/gr) AZFc deletions. Sperm concentration in the carriers of b2/b4, gr/gr and b2/b3 deletions, were 0.37 ± 0.13, 12.2 ± 7.1 and 30.3 ± 5.3 mln/ml, respectively. Severe spermatogenesis defects were detected in 93, 42 and 57 % patients with b2/b4, b2/b3 and gr/gr deletions, respectively. Quantitative karyological analysis of immature germ cells from ejaculate sediment revealed from incomplete spermatogenesis arrest at prepaсhytene stages to complete spermatogenesis depletion. Moderate oligozoospemia and/or astheno-, teratozoospermia were found in 7; 20; 30 %; and 0; 38; 10 % of the carriers of b2/b4, b2/b3 and gr/gr deletions, respectively.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>мужское бесплодие</kwd><kwd>сперматогенез</kwd><kwd>Y-хромосома</kwd><kwd>локус AZF</kwd><kwd>микроделеции</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>male infertility</kwd><kwd>spermatogenesis</kwd><kwd>Y chromosome</kwd><kwd>AZF locus</kwd><kwd>microdeletions</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Курило Л.Ф., Сорокина Т.М., Черных В.Б. и др.
