To prevent chromosomal aberrations to be transmitted to the offspring, strict meiotic checkpoints are in place to remove aberrant spermatocytes. However, in about 1% of all males these checkpoints cause complete meiotic arrest leading to azoospermia and subsequent infertility. We here unravel two clearly distinct meiotic arrest mechanisms that act during the prophase of human male meiosis. Type I arrested spermatocytes display severe asynapsis of the homologous chromosomes, disturbed XY-body formation and increased expression of the Y-chromosome encoded gene ZFY and seem to activate a DNA damage pathway leading to induction of p63 mediated spermatocyte elimination. Type II arrested spermatocytes display normal chromosome synapsis, normal XY-body morphology and meiotic crossover formation but have a lowered expression of several cell cycle regulating genes and fail to properly silence the X-chromosome encoded gene ZFX. Discovery and understanding of these meiotic arrest mechanisms increases our knowledge on how genomic stability is guarded during human germ cell development.

Spermatogonial Metaphase

Normal testicular material was obtained from 53 men. The morphology and behaviour of the chromosomes during pre-meiotic and meiotic stages of spermatogenesis are described in detail. Three types of spermatogonial metaphase chromosome have been identified; they are thought to be from spermatogonia of different generations. Homologous chromosomes appear to be paired at the beginning of spermatogonial prophase, and at the onset of the meiotic prophase (leptotene). Bivalents assume a "lampbrush" appearance during mid- to late pachytene.
