Effects of zinc chloride on boar sperm quality during liquid storage at 17°C
Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of zinc chloride (ZnCl2) at 20, 50, 100, and 200 μg/mL on the quality of seminal plasma‐free boar sperm stored at 17°C for 7 days and to explore the underlying mechanisms.

Cryoprotectant-free vitrification of human spermatozoa in new artificial seminal fluid [PDF]
Vitrification is a new method that has been recently introduced in Assisted Reproduction Technique programs. The aim of this study was to design a new medium similar to normal human seminal fluid (SF), formulation artificial seminal fluid (ASF), and to ...

Simple Summary Reactive oxygen species that accumulate during liquid storage of boar semen lead to oxidative stress to sperm. In this study, we found that proline significantly improved boar sperm quality and protected sperm against oxidative damages ...

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.

Recent development in freezing strategies of pig semen-A review
Of late studies on frozen thawed boar semen have dramatically improved boar semen cryopreservation technique, albeit the commercial application of cryopreserved boar semen has not yet been popular. Some studies claimed successful fertility/ fertilization

Protein-carbohydrate interactions during fertilization [PDF]
Interaction between gametes during fertilization is at least in part regulated by carbohydrate moieties of the zona pellucida (ZP) and carbohydrate binding proteins of the sperm surface. This review focuses on the protein-carbohydrate interactions during

Cryopreservation of boar sperm
At present, it is recognized that the most effective method of reproduction of farm animals is their artificial insemination. That is why in recent years, especially after the development of the methods of conserving the semen in different species of animals, a series of scientific works have been published in this field.

Sperm are specialized cells that require adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to support their function. Maintaining sperm energy homeostasis in vitro is vitally important to improve the efficacy of boar sperm preservation.

pH-dependent effects of procaine on equine gamete activation [PDF]
Procaine directly triggers pH-dependent cytokinesis in equine oocytes and induces hypermotility in stallion spermatozoa, an important event during capacitation. However, procaine-induced hyperactivated motility is abolished when sperm is washed to remove

Sperm plasma membrane characteristics and boar semen fertility [PDF]
Much effort is being made to establish relationships between the molecular events that take place in spermatozoa under fertilizing conditions and actual sperm function during fertilization. During capacitation, the process that 'primes' spermatozoa for interaction with the egg, components of the sperm's environment, notably bicarbonate, provoke various
