Summary

The proposed project we intend to assess the implication of the telomeric pathway in male infertility. To get this, several analyzes will be carried out: 1. Determination of the TL by means of two methods: Q-FISH and PCR. 2. Determination of sperm DNA fragmentation by tunnel technique. 3. Assess sperm maturation.

Finally, the correlations between age, normality or not of the seminogram, LT, Short telomers (ST) accumulation, DNA fragmentation levels, sperm maturation and fertility, blastocyst development, and pregnancy rates will be established in search of cut-off points that can give a forecast of man´s fertility who consults on this subject.
