Both structural and numerical chromosome aberrations in sperm represent important categories of paternally transmitted genetic
damage. Therefore, a new multiprobe fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) method, using DNA probes for three targets (centromere
and telomere of chromosome 1, centromere of chromosome 8), was developed to detect human sperm carrying three types of chromosomal
defects: (1) terminal duplications or deletions in chromosome 1p, (2) aneuploidy involving chromosomes 1 or 8, and (3) diploidy.
Baseline frequencies were determined for three healthy donors who had been previously evaluated for sperm cytogenetics by
the human-sperm/hamster-oocyte cytogenetic technique (hamster technique). Among ∼120 000 sperm analyzed by the new FISH method,
the average baseline frequencies of sperm carrying telomeric duplications and deletions of 1p were 3.2 ± 1.9 and 2.9 ± 3.6
per 104, respectively. Diploid sperm was found in an average frequency of 6.6 ± 4.0 per 104. Average frequencies of disomic sperm for chromosomes 1 or 8 were 1.7 ± 2.2 and 1.9 ± 2.3 per 104, respectively. Inter-individual differences were observed for deletions of 1p but not for the other sperm phenotypes. A good
correlation was obtained between the frequencies of sperm with structural chromosome aberrations detected with the new assay
and the frequency of sperm carrying premeiotic or meiotic cytogenetic damage detected with the hamster technique. The observed
levels of numerical aberrations with the new FISH assay were within range of the baseline frequencies reported by the hamster
technique. The newly developed FISH assay has promising applications in genetic, clinical, physiological and toxicological
studies.

Aneuploidy in pig sperm: multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization using probes for chromosomes 1, 10, and Y. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The objective of this research was to develop chromosome-specific probes for use in evaluating aneuploidy in boar spermatozoa through the application of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technology. A multicolor FISH method was developed to detect aneuploidy in the sperm of boars using DNA probes specific for small regions of chromosomes 1, 10, and Y. The average frequencies of sperm with disomy for chromosomes 1, 10, and Y were 0.075%, 0.067%, and 0.094%, respectively. The incidence of disomy did not differ significantly by chromosome. The average frequencies of diploidy were 0.177% for 1-1-10-10 and 0.022% for Y-Y-10-10. Thus, the incidence of overall diploidy (1-1-10-10) was significantly higher than that of disomy for the chromosomes examined (P < 0.01 for disomy of the autosomes and P < 0.05 for disomy of the Y chromosome). No significant age or breed effects on disomy and diploidy rates and no significant interindividual variations in disomy or diploidy were found. The observed level of numerical chromosome aberrations in pig sperm appear to be within the range of the baseline frequencies reported so far in men. 相似文献

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was performed on human interphase sperm nuclei to determine the utility of this technique for aneuploidy detection. Repetitive DNA sequences specific for chromosomes 1, 12 and X were biotinylated and hybridized with mature sperm, which had been treated with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and dithiothreitol to render them accessible to the probes. Detection of bound probe was accomplished with fluoresceinated avidin and antiavidin. For each of the chromosomes studied, chromosome number was determined by counting the fluorescent signals, representing hybridized regions, within the sperm nuclei. The frequencies for disomy, that is for nuclei containing two signals, for chromosomes 1, 12 and X were 0.06%, 0.04% and 0.03%, respectively. The congruence of these results with those determined by the cross-species hamster oocyte-human sperm assay, and the high efficiency of hybridization indicate that FISH is a sensitive and reliable tool for aneuploidy detection in human sperm. 相似文献

We present a new method to detect epididymal sperm aneuploidy (ESA) in mice using simultaneous fluorescence in situ hybridization
(FISH) with DNA probes specific for mouse chromosomes X, Y and 8. The method was applied to Robertsonian (Rb) translocation
(8.14) heterozygotes and homozygotes as well as the chromosomally normal B6C3F1. The sex ratios of sperm did not differ from
the expected 1∶1 and the hybridization efficiencies were ≈99.7% for over 60 000 sperm analyzed. Mice heterozygous for Rb (8.14)
produced about tenfold higher rates of sperm with chromosome 8 hyperhaploidy than did Rb (8.14) homozygotes or chromosomally
normal mice, while frequencies of sperm with hyperhaploidies for chromosomes X and Y were unaffected in all three lines of
mice. Hyperhaploid frequencies obtained with the ESA method were consistent with those of the previous testicular FISH method
and were validated by published data obtained by conventional cytogenetic analyses (meiotic metaphase II and first cleavage).
Thus, the mouse three-chromosome ESA assay together with the previously developed aneuploidy assay for human sperm constitute
a promising pair of interspecific biomarkers for comparative studies of the genetic and physiologic mechanisms of the induction
and persistence of aneuploidy in male germ cells.

Aneuploidy estimates for chromosomes 1, 12, X, and Y were obtained in human sperm from five donors using multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis. Disomy frequencies were obtained by scoring a minimum of 10,000 sperm for each chromosome probe per donor. This analysis was replicated for two scoring criteria: one used one half of a signal domain as the minimum distance between two signals to be counted as two and thus disomic; the other set one signal domain as the minimum distance between two signals. A total of 120,870 sperm were assessed using one half of a domain as the criterion, and 113,478 were scored using one domain as the criterion. The percentage of disomy for chromosomes 1, 12, X, Y, and XY was 0.18, 0.16, 0.15, 0.19, and 0.25, respectively, using the one-half-domain criterion, and 0.08, 0.17, 0.07, 0.12, and 0.16, respectively, using the one-domain criterion. The percentage of disomy decreased significantly with use of one domain as the minimum distance for signal separation for all chromosomes except for chromosome number 12. These lower disomy frequencies correlated well with frequencies derived from human sperm karyotypes analyzed in our laboratory. This suggests that the fluorescent signals for chromosomes 1, X, and Y split into more than one domain in decondensed interphase sperm, and that the use of the one-half-domain criterion would lead to an overestimate of aneuploidy frequencies. The factors known to affect aneuploidy estimates derived from FISH studies are discussed, and recommendations for stringent scoring criteria are proposed. © 1995 wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with DNA probes specific to chromosomes 17 and the X has been applied to human ejaculated sperm. After sperm nuclei were decondensed with EDTA and DTT, biotinylated alpha satellite DNA probes TR17 and TRX were separately used on preparations from thirteen healthy donors. After hybridization 96% of sperm were labelled with the TR17 probe and 48% of sperm were labelled with the TRX probe. Frequencies of 0.33% disomic 17 and 0.29% disomic X sperm were found. The frequencies of diploid sperm were assessed as 0.37% using the TR17 probe and 0.20% using the TRX probe which labelled only one half of the sperm; after correcting the result from the X-probe to 0.40% the two frequencies are very similar. 相似文献

Cigarette smoking and aneuploidy in human sperm 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

Cigarette smoke contains chemicals which are capable of inducing aneuploidy in experimental systems. These chemicals have been shown to reach the male reproductive system, increasing oxidative DNA damage in human sperm and lowering semen quality. We have examined the association between smoking and aneuploid sperm by studying 31 Chinese men with similar demographic characteristics and lifestyle factors except for cigarette smoking. None of the men drank alcohol. These men were divided into three groups: nonsmokers (10 men), light smokers (< 20 cigarettes/day, 11 men), and heavy smokers (> or = 20 cigarettes/day, 10 men). There were no significant differences in semen parameters or in age across groups. Two multi-color fluorescence in situ hybridizations (FISH) were performed: two-color FISH for chromosomes 13 and 21, and three-color FISH for the sex chromosomes using chromosome 1 as an internal autosomal control for diploidy and lack of hybridization. The mean hybridization efficiency was 99.78%. The frequency of disomy 13 was significantly higher in light and heavy smokers than in non-smokers, while no significant differences in the frequency of disomy 21, X or Y were observed across groups. Significant inter-donor heterogeneity in every category of disomic sperm examined was found in both light and heavy smokers, while in nonsmokers only XY disomy showed significant inter-donor differences. Thus, we conclude that cigarette smoking may increase the risk of aneuploidy only for certain chromosomes and that men may have different susceptibilities to aneuploidy in germ cells induced by cigarette smoking.

This study examined the effect of paternal environmental exposure to pesticides on the frequency of aneuploidy in human sperm. To determine if the chromosome number in germ cells was altered by paternal exposure, multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis was utilized to measure aneuploidy frequencies in the sperm of 40 men (20 exposed, 20 controls). Samples were coded for "blind analysis" to eliminate scorer bias. Aneuploidy and diploidy frequencies were assessed for chromosomes 13, 21, X, and Y. A minimum of 10,000 sperm was scored per donor per chromosome probe with a total of 809,935 sperm scored. Hybridization efficiency was 99%. There were no significant differences in aneuploidy or diploidy frequencies between exposed and control groups, suggesting that the pesticides did not increase the risk of numerical chromosomal abnormalities in these men. 相似文献

Infertile men undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection have an increased frequency of chromosome abnormalities in their sperm. Men with low sperm concentration (oligozoospermia) have an increased risk of sperm chromosome abnormalities. This study was initiated to determine whether men with severe oligozoospermia (<10(6) sperm/ml) have a higher frequency of chromosome abnormalities in their sperm compared with men with moderate (1-9 x 10(6) sperm/ml) or mild (10-19 x 10(6) sperm/ml) oligozoospermia. Multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis was performed using DNA probes specific for chromosomes 13, 21, X, and Y (with chromosome 1 as an autosomal control for the sex chromosomes). Aneuploidy and disomy frequencies were assessed from a total of 603,011 sperm from 30 men: 10 in each of the categories. The mean frequencies of disomy for the patients with mild, moderate, and severe oligozoospermia were 0.17%, 0.24%, and 0.30%, respectively, for chromosome 13 and 0.22%, 0.44%, and 0.58%, respectively, for chromosome 21. For the sex chromosomes, the mean frequencies of disomy for mild, moderate, and severe oligozoospermia were 0.25%, 1.04%, and 0.68%, respectively, for XY, 0.047%, 0.08%, and 0.10%, respectively, for XX, and 0.04%, 0.06%, and 0.09%, respectively, for YY. The frequencies for diploidy also increased from 0.4% for mild to 1.20% for moderate to 1.24% for severe oligozoospermia. There was a significant inverse correlation between the frequency of sperm chromosome abnormalities and the sperm concentration for XY, XX, and YY disomy and diploidy. These results demonstrate that men with severe oligozoospermia have an elevated risk for chromosome abnormalities in their sperm, particularly sex chromosome abnormalities. 相似文献

Double fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to detect sex chromosomes in decondensed human sperm nuclei. Biotinylated X chromosome specific (TRX) and digoxigenin-labeled Y chromosome specific (HRY) probes were simultaneously hybridized to sperm preparations from 12 normal healthy donors. After the hybridization, the probes were detected immuno-cytochemically, using two different and independent affinity systems. Ninety-six percent of the 12,636 sperm showed fluorescent labeling, of which 47.4% were haploid X and 46.8% were haploid Y. A frequency of 0.46% of XX-bearing sperm (0.28% disomic, 0.18% diploid) and 0.38% YY-bearing sperm (0.21% disomic, 0.17% diploid) was found. The overall proportions of X- and Y-bearing sperm in the ejaculates were 47.9% and 47.2%, respectively, which was not significantly different from the expected 50:50 ratio. In addition 0.21% of cells appeared to be haploid XY-bearing sperm, 0.62% were diploid XY-bearing cells, and 0.05% of cells were considered to be tetraploid cells. The application of double FISH to human sperm using X-chro-mosome and Y-chromosome probes has allowed a more accurate assessment of the sex chromosal complements in sperm than single FISH method and quinacrine staining for Y-bodies. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

In situ hybridizations were performed on mature human sperm cells with biotin-labeled -satellite DNA probes specific for chromosomes 3, 7, 10, 11, 17, and X in order to reveal the disomy rate for each of these chromosomes. A total of 76 253 sperm nuclei from seven healthy probands aged 23–57 years were analyzed. An average of 12 000 sperm nuclei (at least 1500 per donor) showing hybridization were scored with each probe. The disomy rate as indicated by two distinct hybridization signals turned out to be similar for all chromosomes, ranging from 0.31% to 0.34%. There were no significant interindividual differences and no age correlation in the frequency of disomic sperm cells between the donors. 相似文献

To examine interindividual differences in sperm chromosome aneuploidy, repeated semen specimens were obtained from a group of ten healthy men, aged 20-21 at the start of the study, and analyzed by multi-color fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis to determine the frequencies of sperm aneuploidy for chromosomes X, Y, 8, 18 and 21 and of diploidy. Semen samples were obtained three times over a five-year period. Statistical analysis examining the stability of sperm aneuploidy over time by type and chromosome identified two men who consistently exhibited elevated frequencies of sperm aneuploidy (stable variants): one with elevated disomy 18 and one with elevated MII diploidy. Differences among frequencies of aneuploidy by chromosome were also seen. Overall, disomy frequencies were lower for chromosome X, 8 and 18 than for chromosomes 21 or Y and for XY aneuploidy. The frequency of chromosome Y disomy did not differ from XY sperm frequency. Also, the frequency of meiosis I (XY) and II (YY + XX) sex chromosome errors did not differ in haploid sperm, but the frequency of MII errors was lower than MI errors in diploid sperm. Frequencies of sperm aneuploidy were similar between the first sampling period and the second, two years later. However, the frequency of some types of aneuploidy (XY, disomy Y, disomy 8, total autosomal disomies, total diploidy, and subcategories of diploidy) increased significantly between the first sampling period and the last, five years later, while others remained unchanged (disomy X, 21 and 18). These findings confirm inter-chromosome differences in the frequencies of disomy and suggest that some apparently healthy men exhibit consistently elevated frequencies of specific sperm aneuplodies. Furthermore, time/age-related changes in sperm aneuploidy may be detected over as short a period as five years in a repeated-measures study. 相似文献

We studied the frequencies of X- and Y-chromosome-bearing sperm, diploidy and disomy for chromosomes 1, 12, X, and Y in sperm from 10 normal men aged 21-52 years, to determine whether there was any relationship between donor age and any of these variables. Multicolor FISH was used to control for lack of probe hybridization and to distinguish diploid sperm from disomic sperm. A minimum of 10,000 sperm per donor was evaluated for each chromosome, for a total of 225,846 sperm studied. Sperm were considered disomic if two fluorescent signals were separated by a minimal distance of one signal domain. The mean frequencies of X- and Y-bearing sperm were 50.1% and 49.0%, respectively; not significantly different from 50%. There was no correlation between paternal age and "sex ratio" in sperm. Similarly, there was no association between the frequency of diploid sperm (mean, .16%; range, .06-.42%) and donor age. For disomy frequencies, there was no relationship between donor age and disomy 12 (mean, .16%; range, .10%-.25%), XX (mean, .07%; range, .03%-.17%), and XY sperm (mean, .16%; range, .08%-.24%). There was a significant increase in the frequency of YY sperm (P = .04; mean, .18%; range, .10%-.43%) and disomy 1 sperm (P = .01; mean, .11%; range, .05%-.18%) with donor age. In summary, our results do not support a correlation between paternal age and sex ratio or diploidy. 相似文献

A multicolor procedure employing fluorescence in situ hybridization is described for detecting chromosomal domains and germinal aneuploidy in late-step spermatids in mice using DNA probes specific for repetitive sequences near the centromeres of chromosomes 8 and X. These probes were nick-translated with biotin- or digoxigenin-labeled nucleotides, and were detected with FITC or rhodamine. Probe and hybridization specificities were confirmed using metaphase chromosomes from spleen and bone marrow cells as well as from primary and secondary spermatocytes. Late-step spermatids, identified in testicular preparations by their hooked shape, yielded compact fluorescence domains in ~ 50% and > 99% of cells when hybridized with probes for chromosomes X and 8, respectively. In a survey of > 80,000 late-step spermatids from 8 healthy young adult C57BL/6 or B6C3F1 mice, ~ 3/10,000 spermatids had fluorescence phenotypes indicative of X-X or 8–8 hyperhaploidy. These frequencies are consistent with published frequencies of aneuploidy in meiotic metaphase II and first cleavage metaphases of the mouse, providing preliminary validation of sperm hybridization for the detection of aneuploidy. No significant animal or strain differences were observed. In addition, the hyperhaploidy frequencies for murine spermatids were indistinguishable for those for sperm from healthy men obtained by a similar hybridization procedure. These procedures for detecting aneuploid male gametes are examples of “bridging biomarkers” between human and animal studies. They have promising applications for investigations of the genetic, reproductive, and toxicological factors leading to abnormal reproductive outcomes of paternal origin. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Human meiotic segregation of X and Y chromosomes was simultaneously analysed by dual fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) on 10638 interphase spermatozoa from the same donor. A modified method for sperm decondensation ensured access of both X and Y probes to the sperm chromatin and a 99% hybridization efficiency. Expected sex ratios were obtained (49.30% haploidy X and 49.22% haploidy Y). The frequencies of meiotic II non-disjunctions for X and Y chromosomes (0.05%) were similar to those observed in sperm karyotypes after heterospecific fertilization of hamster eggs. In contrast, the frequency of XY bearing cells was significantly higher (0.42%). However, XY cells detected by FISH could either be diploid somatic cells, diploid germinal cells or hyperhaploid XY spermatozoa, the latter resulting from meiotic I non-disjunctions. 相似文献

Detection of aneuploidy in rodent and human sperm by multicolor FISH after chronic exposure to diazepam 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Aneuploidy induction in male germ cells of mice and men after chronic exposure to diazepam (DZ; CAS 439-14-5; Valium was assessed by multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). DZ, a widely administered sedative and muscle relaxant, was proposed to act as an aneugen by disturbing spindle function in various assay systems. Male mice were treated by oral intubation with 3mg/kg DZ once or daily for 14 consecutive days. At 22 days after the last treatment, epididymal sperm were collected from the caudae epididymes. Evaluation of aneuploid and diploid sperm (10,000 sperm per animal) was performed by multicolor FISH employing DNA probes specific for chromosomes X, Y, and 8 simultaneously. We found a significant increase in the frequency of disomy 8 in subchronically DZ-treated mice when compared to the concurrent solvent control group (2.4-fold; P<0.01), while no increase was detected for sex-chromosome hyperhaploidies. No effect was seen when mice were treated with a single dose (3mg/kg DZ). In a parallel human approach, two men were evaluated who chronically ingested >0.3mg/kg/d DZ for more than 6 months. Multicolor FISH was applied to human sperm probing for chromosomes X, Y, and 13. Frequencies for sperm with disomy 13, disomy X, and total sex-chromosomal disomies were found to be elevated among the two subjects after chronic DZ-exposure compared to control subjects. In conclusion, the results indicate that diazepam acts as an aneugen during meiosis in male spermatogenesis, both in mice and humans. The quantitative comparison indicates that humans may be at least 10 times more sensitive than mice for aneuploidy induction by DZ during male meiosis. 相似文献

Disomy and diploidy frequencies for autosomes 1–22 and the gonosomes were assessed in 299,442 sperm nuclei from four normal
fertile men by chromosome painting. This novel approach allowed us to perform a specific and sensitive detection of each chromosome.
A minimum of 5000 sperm nuclei per subject were evaluated for each chromosome by dual colour fluorescence in situ hybridization.
The disomy rate proved to be similar for all the autosomes (0.24%) and the diploidy rate varied from 0.12% to 0.15%. No interchromosomal
or interindividual differences in the frequency of disomic and diploid sperm nuclei were observed between the four subjects.
The mean frequency of XX-, YY- and XY-bearing spermatozoa was estimated to 0.17%, 0.17% and 0.32%, respectively. This strategy
constitutes a new approach for detecting aneuploidy in human sperm nuclei and suggests an equal repartition of non-disjunction
among chromosomes in male gametes.

Herein we report the results of the first major prospective study directly comparing aneuploidy detection by fluorescence in situ hybridization of interphase nuclei with the results obtained by cytogenetic analysis. We constructed probes derived from specific subregions of human chromosomes 21, 18, 13, X, and Y that give a single copy-like signal when used in conjunction with suppression hybridization. A total of 526 independent amniotic fluid samples were analyzed in a blind fashion. All five probes were analyzed on 117 samples, while subsets of these five probes were used on the remaining samples (because of insufficient sample size), for a total of over 900 autosomal hybridization reactions and over 400 sex chromosome hybridization reactions. In this blind series, 21 of 21 abnormal samples were correctly identified. The remaining samples were correctly classified as disomic for these five chromosomes. The combination of chromosome-specific probe sets composed primarily of cosmid contigs and optimized hybridization/detection allowed accurate chromosome enumeration in uncultured human amniotic fluid cells, consistent with the results obtained by traditional cytogenetic analysis. 相似文献

Spontaneous frequencies of aneuploid and diploid sperm in 10 normal Chinese men: assessed by multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Many studies have been published establishing the background frequencies of disomic and diploid sperm in normal men by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis, with highly significant variance among the reports. Besides interdonor heterogeneity and differences in the experimental protocols used, the question of inherent differences in chromosome malsegregation and meiotic arrest among different geographic and ethnic groups of donors has been raised. In this study, multicolor FISH analysis was carried out on semen samples from 10 nonsmoking, nondrinking Chinese men from the People's Republic of China. The results were compared to FISH data on 10 nonsmoking, nondrinking Canadians under the same experimental conditions, in the same laboratory. A total of 200,497 sperm was scored in the Chinese donors and compared to 202,320 sperm from Canadian donors. Approximately 10,000 sperm per chromosome probe per donor were analyzed. The mean hybridization efficiency was 99.99%. The frequencies of X-bearing and Y-bearing sperm were not significantly different from the expected 50% for each individual and for the combined data from all donors (49.73% vs. 49.46%, P = 0.3946). The mean disomy frequencies (range) were 0.07% (0.02%-0.12%) for chromosome 13, 0.18% (0.09%-0.19%) for chromosome 21, 0.05% (0. 01%-0.09%) for 24,XX, 0.02% (0.01%-0.06%) for 24,YY, and 0.29% (0. 13%-0.49%) for 24,XY. The mean diploidy frequency (range) was 0.38% (0.22%-0.73%) for 13-21 hybridizations and 0.32% (0.07%-0.70%) for XY hybridizations. Highly significant interdonor heterogeneity was found for diploidy (P = 0.0000) and for XY disomy (P = 0.0011), but no age effect was observed in any category of disomic or diploid sperm. The data reported here show no marked differences in disomy and diploidy frequencies between the mainland Chinese and Canadian groups, if donor heterogeneity is taken into account. 相似文献

Fluorescence in situ hybridization to Y chromosomes in decondensed human sperm nuclei 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Human sperm nuclei were isolated with mixed alkyltrimethylammonium bromide and dithiothreitol (MATAB/DTT) and decondensed by treatments with lithium diiodosalicylate (LIS), sodium chloride, or Tris salts. Concentrations as low as 1 mM LIS induced measurable nuclear swelling compared to 600 mM required for the other two salts. As measured by image analyses, the projected nuclear area increased linearly up to approximately fivefold with LIS concentrations up to 10 mM. Swollen nuclei also maintained the elliptical shapes characteristic of the human sperm head. Expanded sperm nuclei of three men were hybridized with a fluorescently labeled 3.4 kb Y chromosome-specific repetitive DNA probe; 50.1% of the nuclei of each semen sample showed fluorescent labeling over a part of the nucleus indicating presence of the Y chromosome. In comparison, unswollen sperm did not yield reliable hybridization signals. This procedure is suitable for determining the proportion of human sperm with Y chromosomes and can be used to evaluate sperm separation techniques. The availability of probes specific for most human chromosomes suggests that this procedure may find general application in studies of sperm chromosomal constitution. 相似文献
