Intracytoplasmic sperm injection: a novel selection method for sperm with normal frequency of chromosomal aneuploidies.
Fertility and Sterility 2005 December
OBJECTIVE: To test a newly invented intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) sperm selection method based on sperm hyaluronic acid (HA) binding.
DESIGN: Comparison of chromosomal disomy and diploidy frequencies in sperm arising from semen and in HA-bound sperm.
SETTING: Academic andrology laboratory.
PATIENT(S): Men presenting for semen analysis.
INTERVENTION(S): Washed sperm fractions of 32 semen samples were applied to Petri dishes or glass slides coated with immobilized HA. The unbound sperm were rinsed gently, and the HA-bound sperm were removed with an ICSI pipette. The control sperm population was the unselected sperm. Both HA-selected and unselected sperm were treated with fluorescence in situ hybridization with centromeric probes for the X, Y, and 17 chromosomes.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Chromosomal disomy and diploidy frequencies.
RESULT(S): In the HA-bound sperm (495-2,079 per man, 41,670 in all) compared with unselected sperm (4,770 per man, 162,210 in all), the chromosomal disomy frequencies were reduced to 0.16% from 0.52%, diploidy to 0.09% from 0.51%, and sex chromosome disomy to 0.05% from 0.27% (a 5.4-fold reduction vs. 4-fold respective increase in ICSI offspring).
CONCLUSION(S): The HA sperm selection method for ICSI, which is based on a relationship between sperm receptors for zona pellucida and HA, will likely reduce the potential genetic complications and adverse public health effects of ICSI.
