Studies on the sperm reservoir of the pig oviduct [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
During sperm transport in the female pig a proportion of spermatozoa are arrested, often for 24 h or more, in a particular segment of the utero-tubal junction (UTJ) and the adjacent tubal isthmus, where a sperm reservoir (SR) is built up.

Comparative Analysis of MicroRNA and mRNA Profiles of Sperm with Different Freeze Tolerance Capacities in Boar (Sus scrofa) and Giant Panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca)

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2019
Post-thawed sperm quality parameters vary across different species after cryopreservation. To date, the molecular mechanism of sperm cryoinjury, freeze-tolerance and other influential factors are largely unknown. In this study, significantly dysregulated

Effects of riboflavin on boar sperm motility, sperm quality, enzyme activity and antioxidant status during cryopreservation

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, 2022
Objectives This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of adding riboflavin to boar sperm freezing extender on the challenge of cryopreservation. Methods Different concentrations (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 or 25 μM) of riboflavin were added to the freezing ...

Hyperactivation and Tyrosine Phosphorylation of Cryopreserved Stallion Spermatozoa in Relation to Conventional In Vitro Fertilization Blastocyst Production

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Challenges in establishing clinical conventional in vitro fertilization (IVF) in horses include variation in sperm and oocyte quality, which can be affected by mare age. Extended preincubation of stallion spermatozoa has resulted in successful IVF.

Reduced glutathione and cysteine hydrochloride on crossbred bull semen

open access: yes, 2012
Over the last few years, good quality freezable semen was not utilized effectively due to less knowledge about the freezability of semen. One reason is the lack of sufficient antioxidants in the seminal plasma and semen extender.

Unilateral ductus deferens aplasia with terminal cystic dilation in a Bernese mountain dog

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, August 2026.
Abstract An incidental caudal abdominal mass was discovered in a 5‐year‐old, male, entire Bernese mountain dog. Investigations showed a terminal cystic dilation of the left ductus deferens. Castration, along with surgical resection of the mass, was performed, and histopathology of the mass and ductus deferens was consistent with segmental aplasia of ...

Non-random chromosome positioning in mammalian sperm nuclei, with migration of the sex chromosomes during late spermatogenesis.

open access: yes, 2005
Chromosomes are highly organized and compartmentalized in cell nuclei. The analysis of their position is a powerful way to monitor genome organization in different cell types and states.

Pig Seminal Plasma Extracellular Vesicles Enhance Motility During Preservation of Epididymal Spermatozoa but Impair Capacitation and IVF Parameters

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 1249-1260, July 2026.
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

Myo-inositol improves the viability of boar sperm during liquid storage

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
IntroductionLiquid preservation of boar semen is a highly preferred method for semen preservation in pig production. However, oxidative stress is the main challenge during the liquid preservation of boar semen in a time dependent manner.

Sperm Sexing in Selected Animals and Humans: Methods, Applications, and Future Prospects

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 1089-1101, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Sperm sexing is a technique that enables the selection of offspring sex by sorting spermatozoa based on their sex chromosomes. This technology has gained increasing attention due to its potential applications in both animal breeding and human‐assisted reproduction.
