University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa scientists have uncovered a direct link between a missing Y chromosome gene and male infertility. Their new research reveals that deleting this single gene in mice not only caused infertility but also disrupted hundreds of other genes vital for healthy sperm. The findings, published in Cell Death & Differentiation, offer significant implications for understanding reproductive health.
