Abstract figure legend TMEM16A plays a pivotal role in setting the duration of the action potential plateau in human uterine smooth muscle. An increase in TMEM16A expression in labour underpins a lengthening of the plateau and this provides time for the contraction to become larger and longer, important for timely successful labour.

Acrosome size and kinematics of human spermatozoa [PDF]
Thesis (MScMedSc (Biomedical Sciences. Medical Physiology))--University of Stellenbosch, 2007.For spermatozoa to gain access to the oocyte for fertilization, lytic enzymes need to be released during the acrosome reaction. These enzymes, which are stored

A Quarter Century of EHD Protein Research: From Endosomal Recycling to Ciliopathies
Human EHD protein subcellular localization. ABSTRACT Eps15 homology domain‐containing proteins comprise a conserved family of membrane‐remodeling ATPases that regulate endocytic trafficking, membrane fission, receptor recycling, primary ciliogenesis and membrane dynamics across eukaryotes. Since the initial identification of EHD1 and its Caenorhabditis

Reactive Oxygen Species‐Induced Damage in Cryopreserved Bovine Sperm: Mitigation Strategies
Cryopreservation of bovine sperm results in overproduction of ROS due to osmotic pressure variations, ice crystals and dysfunction of mitochondria, which causes lipid peroxidation, fragmentation of DNA, protein damage and ultimately decline of post‐thaw sperm quality.

ABSTRACT Background Extracellular vesicles (EVs) produced by accessory sex glands play a key role in sperm functionality, influencing motility, viability, acrosome integrity, metabolic activity, and capacitation. Most studies on the effects of EVs on spermatozoa have focused on ejaculated spermatozoa, which have already been exposed to their own native

This study reports a microfluidic device with a functionalized surface utilizing a polyoxazoline coating and covalently immobilized gold nanoparticles and anti‐phosphatidylserine antibody. The device efficiently eliminates pre‐apoptotic and apoptotic spermatozoa and yields sperm with substantially improved quality and low DNA damage, offering a simple ...
