JAGGED1 modulates bull spermatozoa acrosome reaction and fertilization [PDF]
Reproduction and FertilityTo acquire fertilizing ability, mammalian spermatozoa (SPZ) must undergo acrosome reaction, which is associated with protein remodeling and relocation. Previous studies showed that Notch ligand JAGGED1 is relocated from the apical to the post-equatorial ...

Human Zona Pellucida Glycoproteins: Binding Characteristics With Human Spermatozoa and Induction of Acrosome Reaction [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Human zona pellucida (ZP) matrix is composed of four glycoproteins designated as ZP glycoprotein -1 (ZP1), -2 (ZP2), -3 (ZP3), and -4 (ZP4). Mutations in the genes encoding human ZP glycoproteins are one of the causative factors leading to abnormal ZP ...

Modulation of spermatozoon acrosome reaction [PDF]
Biological Research, 2011 Spermatozoon acrosome reaction is an exocytotic event of the utmost importance for the development of mammalian fertilisation. Current evidence shows that the triggering of the acrosome reaction (AR) could be regulated by the action of diverse compounds,

Participation of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-gated calcium channel in the zona pellucida- and progesterone-induced acrosome reaction and calcium influx in human spermatozoa [PDF]
Asian Journal of Andrology, 2020 The acrosome reaction is a prerequisite for fertilization, and its signaling pathway has been investigated for decades. Regardless of the type of inducers present, the acrosome reaction is ultimately mediated by the elevation of cytosolic calcium ...
