Methods: hTR and hTERT mRNA expression were quantified in 38 cryopreserved testicular tissue specimens by fluorescence real-time reverse transcription- polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)in a LightCycler(r). This was paralleled by conventional histological workup in all tissue specimens and additional semithin sectioning preparation in cases with maturation arrest ( n = 12) and Sertoli-cell-only syndrome ( n = 12). Results: The average normalized hTERT expression (NhTERT) Was 131.9 ± 48.0 copies (mean ± SD) in tissue specimens with full spermatogenesis, NhTERT = 51.2 ± 17.2 copies in those with maturation arrest and NhTERT = 2.7 ± 2.4 copies in those with Sertoli-cell-only syndrome (SCOS). The discriminant analysis showed that detection of NhTERT (NhTR) had a predictive value of 86.8 % (55.3 % ) for correct classification in one of the three histological subgroups.Conclusion: Our results demonstrate that quantitative detection of hTERT mRNA expression in testicular tissue enables a molecular-diagnostic classification of gametogenesis. Quantitative detection of hTERT in testicular biopsies is thus well suited for supplementing the histopathological evaluation. 关 键 词:RNA TR SD RT-PCR real-time
