Sperm cryopreservation is one of the most important procedures in the development of
biotechnologies for assisted reproduction. In some farm animals, the use of cryopreserved …

Spermatozoa are highly differentiated cells whose ultimate function is fertilization to
successfully transfer the male genome. This achievement relies on the expression …

Simple Summary The use of antioxidant compounds could be a successful tool to improve
sperm cryopreservation protocols in ovine species. These molecules have been widely …

Simple Summary Optimum production from farm animals can be achieved by focusing on all
aspects, including reproduction in male stock. Sperm cryopreservation is a commonly …

Functional sperm quality markers to predict bull fertility have been actively investigated.
Among them, proAKAP4, which is the precursor of AKAP4, the main structural protein in the …

Simple Summary ProAKAP4 is the precursor of AKAP4 protein, whose principal function is to
anchor protein complexes to regulate the long-term motion and flagellum structure of …

Simple Summary Rabbit sperm cryopreservation efficiency is still suboptimal. Post-thawing
qualities, such as motility and membrane integrity, are severely impaired after the …

ProAKAP4 is identified within the flagellum of spermatozoa in various mammalian species,
serving as a structural protein associated with motility parameters. This investigation focuses …

Simple Summary Sperm cryopreservation is an important step to optimize artificial
insemination protocols for rams. Traditionally, the improvement of ram sperm …

In this study, the quality of frozen bull semen was evaluated with the proAKAP4 level test.
Sixty straws of frozen bull semen from various batches (n= 30) belonging to six bulls were …
