Sperm motility is linked to the activation of signaling pathways that trigger movement. These
pathways are mainly dependent on Ca2+, which acts as a secondary messenger. The …

Simple Summary Electrolyte balance is very significant, ensures homeostasis of the
organism, maintains reactions, nerve conduction, and proper polarity of cell membranes …

Semen freezability is associated with genetic markers, and there is a diverse set of sperm
transcripts that have been attributed to various cellular functions. RNA-Seq was performed to …

During the last seventy years, studies on mammalian sperm cells have demonstrated the
essential role of capacitation, hyperactivation and the acrosome reaction in the acquisition of …

To participate in sperm–oocyte fusion, spermatozoa need to be motile. In the testes,
spermatozoa are immotile, although these gametes acquire the capacity for motility during …

Acid extrusion and intracellular alkalisation are the key events during sperm capacitation
and these are mediated through proton gated channels (Hv1). Role of Hv1 in regulating …

In this study, the cryoprotective potential of natural antioxidant curcumin in Hariana bull
semen was evaluated as an additive in a tris‐based extender with the assessment of motility …

The endogenous steroid hormone ouabain induces capacitation of bull sperm acting
through its receptor Na+/K+-ATPase on the sperm plasma membrane. Progesterone (P4) is …

Our goal was to investigate heparin‐induced capacitation of frozen‐thawed yak sperm and
to assess the effects of caffeine or ouabain supplementation with heparin on sperm …

In the study, melatonin, a known antioxidant pineal peptide was used as an additive in the
tris-egg yolk glycerol-based semen extender in Hariana bull semen and post-thaw sperm …
