Methods： We screened Y chromosome microdeletions and partial deletions of the AZFc region of a consecutive group of infertile men （n = 149） and controls （100 fertile men, 76 normospermic men）. AZFa, AZFb, AZFc and partial deletions of the AZFc region were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction （PCR） according to established protocols. Results： Among the 127 infertile men screened for microdeletion, four subjects were found to have microdeletions： two AZFc deletions and two AZFb＋AZFc deletions. All the deletions were found only in azoospermic subjects （4/48, 8.33%）. The overall AZFc deletion frequency was low （4/127, 3.15%）. AZF microdeletions were not observed in either oligoasthenoteratozoospermia （OATS） or the control. Partial deletions of AZFc （gr/gr） were observed in a total of 7 of the 149 infertile men （4.70%） and 7 partial AZFc deletions （gr/gr） were found in the control group （7/176, 3.98%）. In addition, two b2/b3 deletions were identified in two azoospermic subjects （2/149, 1.34%） but not in the control group. Conclusion： Our results suggest that the frequency of Y chromosome AZF microdeletions is elevated in individuals with severe spermatogenic failure and that gr/gr deletions are not associated with spermatogenic failure.展开更多

Methods： In total, 178 infertile patients with azoospermia （nonobstructed）, 134 infertile patients with oligozoospermia as well as 40 fertile man controls were included in the present study. The samples were screened for AZF microdeletion using optimized multi-analyte suspension array （MASA） technology. Results： Of the 312 patients, 36 （11.5%） were found to have deletions in the AZF region. The rnicrodeletion frequency was 14% （25/178） in the azoospermia group and 8.2% （11/134） in the oligospermia group. Among 36 patients with microdeletions, 19 had deletions in the AZFc region, seven had deletions in AZFa and six had deletions in AZFb. In addition, four patients had both AZFb and AZFc deletions. No deletion in the AZF region was found in the 40 fertile controls. Conclusion： There is a high prevalence of Y chromosomal microdeletions in Chinese infertile males with azoospermia or oligozoospermia. The MASA technology, which has been established in the present study, provides a sensitive and high-throughput method for detecting the deletion of the Y chromosome. And the results suggest that genetic screening should be advised to infertile men before starting assisted reproductive treatments.展开更多
文摘The benzene alkylation process for the production of ethylbenzene has undergone significant improvements during recent decades.Various environmentally benign zeolite-catalyzed ethylbenzene processes,including ZSM-5-zeolite-based vapor-phase ethylbenzene processes and Y-,β-,and MCM-22-zeolite-based liquid-phase processes,have been developed and commercialized.Pure ethylene,ethanol,and dilute ethylene have been used as ethylation agents.Here,the development and industrial application of alkylation catalysts and benzene ethylation techniques are summarized,and some other promising innovations are discussed.Recent advances in benzene alkylation over hierarchical zeolites with improved access to active sites and molecular transport are also covered.Zeolites with short diffusion lengths are promising candidates as better alkylation catalysts.The key point is how to obtain such materials easily and economically.The structure-activity relationships of commercial zeolites in these processes are discussed.Liquid-phase processes catalyzed by β and MCM-22 are more profitable than vapor-phase processes catalyzed by ZSM-5.
