主 题:HLA antigens and anti-sperm antibody production in Iranian vasectomized men ASA
摘 要:Dear Editor: Anti-sperm antibodies (ASAs) are composed of numerous antibodies interacting with multiple sperm antigens that play a role in fertility. In males, ASAs cause 'immune infertility' by decreasing sperm counts and normal forms, as well as reducing sperm motility and viability, markedly reducing the likelihood of natural conception. The development of ASA in the male depends on the release of sequestered antigens on germ cells following the disruption of the blood-testis barrier.
