Infertility is a widespread clinical problem that affects human reproduction and species persistence worldwide. Around 40-70% of cases are due to male reproductive defects. Functional spermatogenesis (sperm production through several coordinated events) is at the heart of male fertility. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are the primary regulators of gene expression, controlling extensive critical cellular processes, for example proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and reproduction. Due to advancements in high-throughput sequencing tools, many studies have revealed that ncRNAs are widely expressed in germ cells, meiosis, spermatogenesis, sperm fertility, early post-fertilization development, and male infertility. The present review examines the biology and function of ncRNAs, including microRNAs, circular RNAs, and long ncRNAs, in spermatogenesis, their correlation with infertility, and their potential as biomarkers for sperm quality and fertility. The function of ncRNA in Sertoli cells (SCs) and Leydig cells (LCs) is also outlined throughout this study, because spermatogenesis requires testicular somatic cells to be involved in testicular development and male fertility. Meanwhile, the future development of ncRNAs for the clinical treatment of male infertility is also anticipated and discussed.
