IPA analysis identified five proteins [fatty acid synthase (FASN), myeloperoxidase (MPO), mitochondrial aconitate hydratase (ACO2), nucleoporin 93 (NUP93), and 26S proteasome non-ATPase regulatory subunit 14 (PSMD14)] associated with DNA repair deficiency, which showed altered expression in varicocele (P <0.03). Here, NUP93 is linked to varicocele.
