Purpose Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are a broad group of noncoding small RNAs that have important biological functions in germline cells and can maintain genome integrity via silencing of retrotransposons. In this study, we aimed to explore the associations between genetic variants of important genes involved in piRNA biogenesis and male infertility with spermatogenic impairment. Methods To this...
