ABSTRACT
This study is to examine the effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of SLC30A and SLC39A on seminal plasma zinc concentration. Blood and seminal plasma samples were collected from outpatients. SNPs of zinc transporters were analyzed by next Generation sequencing technology, and seminal plasma zinc concentration were determined by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. Our date showed nine SNPs (SLC30A8 rs2466295, rs2466294, SLC30A10 c.-160 C>G, SLC39A8 rs9331, rs9705, rs151392, rs151393, SLC39A11 rs9912126, SLC39A14 rs1051708) were significantly associated with seminal plasma zinc concentration, and 14 SNPs (SLC30A8 rs2466295, rs2466294, SLC30A10 c.-160 C>G, SLC39A6 rs148550301, SLC39A8 rs9331, rs9705, rs151392, rs151393, SLC39A11 rs9912126, rs61736066, rs36041371 and SLC39A14 rs1051708, rs76963096, rs17060854) were found to be significantly associated with total zinc per ejaculate. The seminal plasma zinc concentrations and total zinc per ejaculate were associated with the number of SNPs, and decreased significantly when five SNPs (SLC39A8 rs9331, rs9705, rs151392, rs151393 and SLC39A14 rs1051708) were a combination of homozygous genotype. Our findings suggest that different zinc transporter SNPs may significantly affect seminal plasma zinc levels.
