Мужское бесплодие — это сложное заболевание с множеством потенциальных причин, включая гормональный дисбаланс, анатомические проблемы, генетические факторы, факторы образа жизни и многое другое. Но на сегодняшний день, существует достаточно обширная группа бесплодных мужчин с неустановленными причинами заболевания.</p></sec><sec><title>Цель исследования</title><p>Цель исследования. Провести анализ таксономической структуры микробиома тестикулярной ткани и урогенитального тракта инфертильных мужчин, исследовать взаимосвязь между микробиомом тестикулярной ткани и мастоцитами паренхимы яичка</p></sec><sec><title>Материалы и методы</title><p>Материалы и методы. Исследование выполнено на образцах тестикулярной ткани инфертильных пациентов с азооспермией (n = 33). Все пациенты были распределены на две группы в зависимости от формы азооспермии: группа 1 — инфертильные пациенты с необструктивной азооспермией (НОА) (n = 21); группа 2 — инфертильные пациенты с обструктивной азооспермией (ОА) (n = 12). Методом высокопроизводительного секвенирования нового поколения (NGS) выполнено исследование структуры бактериальной микробиоты тестикулярной ткани. Для определения ИГХ-экспрессии маркёров мастоцитов использовали иммуногистохимическую окраску с анти-MCT (Anti-Mast Cell Tryptase).</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты</title><p>Результаты. Микробиота пациентов с НОА заметно отличается от микробиоты пациентов с ОА (р &lt; 0,05). В группе 1 достоверно чаще обнаруживаются представители семейств Enterobacteriaceae и Xanthomonadaceae, родов Finegoldia, Bifidobacterium, Porphiromonas, Prevotella, Peptoniphilus и Pseudomonas. Отличительной особенностью группы 2 является редкая встречаемость рода Prevotella. Гистохимический анализ выявил мастоцитоз в межканальцевой строме практически в 83% случаев азооспермии. В канальцевых структурах мастоциты встречаются в 68% случаев и коррелируют с микробиомом тестикулярной ткани.</p></sec><sec><title>Заключение</title><p>Заключение. Повреждения, вызванные мастоцитами в строме и канальцах, взаимосвязаны с таксономической структурой микробиома тестикулярной ткани. Кроме того, яички пациентов с НОА имеют качественно и количественно более разнообразный спектр микробиоты как на уровне семейств, так и родов в отличии от пациентов с ОА.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Introduction</title><p>Introduction. Male infertility is a complex condition with many potential causes, including hormonal imbalances, anatomical problems, genetic factors, lifestyle factors and more. But today, there is a fairly large group of infertile men with unknown causes of the disease.</p></sec><sec><title>Objective</title><p>Objective. To analyze the taxonomic microbial diversity of testicular tissue and the urogenital tract of infertile men and to identify correlations between the microbiome and mastocytes in the testicular parenchyma.</p></sec><sec><title>Materials &amp; methods</title><p>Materials &amp; methods. The study was performed on testicular tissue samples from infertile patients with azoospermia (n = 33). All patients were divided into two groups based on the form of azoospermia: group 1 — infertile patients with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) (n=21); and group 2 — infertile with obstructive azoospermia (OA) patients (n=12). The bacterial diversity of testicular tissue was studied by the method of high-performance new generation sequencing (NGS). Immunohistochemical staining with anti-MCT (Anti-Mast Cell Tryptase) was used to determine the IHC expression of mastocyte markers.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Results. The microbiome of patients with NOA differs markedly from the microbiome of patients with OA (p &lt; 0.05). In group 1, representatives of the Enterobacteriaceae and Xanthomonadaceae families, the genera Finegoldia, Bifidobacterium, Porphiromonas, Prevotella, Peptoniphilus and Pseudomonas are significantly more often found. A distinctive feature of group 2 is the rare occurrence of the genus Prevotella. Histochemical analysis revealed mastocytosis in the in-between-canalicular stroma approximately in 83% of azoospermia cases. Mastocytes are found in tubule structures in 68% of cases and correlate with the microbiome of testicular tissue.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusions</title><p>Conclusions. Injuries caused by mastocytes in the stroma and tubular structures are interrelated with the taxonomic diversity of testicular tissue. Moreover, the testicles of NOA-patients have a qualitatively and quantitatively more diverse spectrum both at the level of families and genera, unlike OA-patients.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>микробиом</kwd><kwd>микробиота</kwd><kwd>мастоциты</kwd><kwd>тестикулярная ткань</kwd><kwd>азооспермия</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>microbiome</kwd><kwd>mastocytes</kwd><kwd>testicular tissue</kwd><kwd>azoospermia</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Turner KA, Rambhatla A, Schon S, Agarwal A, Krawetz SA, Dupree JM, Avidor-Reiss T.
