Novel Flow Cytometry Analyses of Boar Sperm Viability: Can the Addition of Whole Sperm-Rich Fraction Seminal Plasma to Frozen-Thawed Boar Sperm Affect It? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Boar semen cryopreservation remains a challenge due to the extension of cold shock damage. Thus, many alternatives have emerged to improve the quality of frozen-thawed boar sperm.

Bisphenol A Diglycidyl Ether (BADGE) and Progesterone Do Not Induce Ca2+ Signals in Boar Sperm Cells
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 AimExposure of boar sperm cells to Bisphenol A diglycidyl ether (BADGE) has been shown to lead to reproductive failure in sows, however, the mode of action is unknown. As we have recently shown that BADGE can interfere with Ca2 + signaling in human sperm

Sperm function and mitochondrial activity: An insight on boar sperm metabolism [PDF]
Theriogenology, 2020 In this study boar sperm mitochondrial activity was studied and deepened in order to delineate the main metabolic strategies used by boar sperm to obtain energy and to link them to sperm function. Boar spermatozoa were collected, diluted at 30 × 106 spz/mL and incubated for 1 h with: Rotenone (ROT), complex I inhibitor, Dimethyl-malonate (DMM), complex

Boar semen proteomics and sperm preservation
Theriogenology, 2019 Recently numerous proteomic approaches have been undertaken to identify sperm and seminal plasma (SP) proteins that can be used as potential biomarkers for sperm function, including fertilization ability. This review aims firstly to briefly introduce the proteomic technologies and workflows that can be successfully applied for sperm and SP proteomic ...

Animals, 2019 Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) released from Gram-negative bacteria binds to toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and induces boar sperm apoptosis. Similarly, polyhistidine (pHis), a TLR4 agonist, can also bind to TLR4.

Influence of progesterone on boar sperm capacitation
Journal of Endocrinology, 1995 Abstract This research investigates the effect of progesterone (P4) on boar sperm capacitation. Ejaculated spermatozoa were washed and incubated under capacitating conditions with or without P4. At different times of incubation samples of sperm were exposed to solubilized zonae pellucidae (ZP) and the degree of capacitation was evaluated by the

Sperm quality improvement of cryopreserved boar semen through colloidal centrifugation gradient
Czech Journal of Animal ScienceBoar semen cryopreservation is limited due to the lower thermal shock resistance of sperm cells. A colloidal centrifugation gradient is an enhancement to cryopreservation that could improve the frozen boar semen quality.
