Abstract
- International audience; Whereas the initially strategy for the genetic analysis of male infertility was based on a candidate gene approach, the development of next-generation sequencing technologies (such as whole-exome sequencing (WES)) provides an opportunity to analyze many genes in a single procedure. In order to recommend WES or whole-genome sequencing (WGS) after genetic counselling, an objective evaluation of the current genetic screening strategy for male infertility is required, even if, at present, we have to take into consideration the complexity of such a procedure, not discussed in this commentary.; Alors que la stratégie actuelle d'analyse de génétique moléculaire de l'infertilité masculine est basée sur une approche dite "gène candidat", le développement des technologies de séquençage de nouvelle génération, comme le séquençage complet de l'exome (WES), offre la possibilité d'analyser de nombreux gènes en une seule technique. Afin de recommander le WES ou le séquençage complet du génome, après un conseil génétique, une évaluation objective des différentes stratégies de dépistage génétique est nécessaire, tout en prenant en considération que la complexité d'une utilisation des nouvelles technologies n'est pas abordé dans ce commentaire.
