A special perspective on human fertilization: The role of sperm capacitation proteins and channels: A narrative review [PDF]
International Journal of Reproductive BioMedicineSperm undergo a last step of maturation known as capacitation in the female reproductive system, which prepares themselves to fertilize the ovum. Mechanisms of capacitation include changes in membrane composition, electrolyte concentration, pH levels ...

Redox Biology, 2021 To fertilize an oocyte, sperm must undergo several biochemical and functional changes known as capacitation. A key event in capacitation is calcium influx through the cation channel of sperm (CatSper).

Antioxidants, 2020 Spermatozoa capacitation is a complex process that requires specific ionic and energetic conditions to support biochemical alterations leading to motility hyperactivation. However, human sperm capacitation is still poorly understood.

Time to revise: impact of methodology on boar sperm capacitation in vitro via phosphotyrosine patterns [PDF]
BMC Veterinary ResearchCapacitation is a crucial sperm maturation process occurring in vivo in the female reproductive tract, enabling spermatozoa to fertilize the oocyte. In vitro, capacitation can be induced using defined capacitation media (CM), with further assessment of ...

Systematic mRNA interactome analysis reconceptualizes translational quiescence in bovine sperm [PDF]
Communications BiologyEjaculated mammalian sperm must undergo a series of biochemical changes called capacitation to gain fertilizing competence. Mounting evidence on protein synthesis during capacitation contradicts the widely accepted dogma of translational quiescence in ...

A comparative study of capacitation-mediated changes in whole mouse sperm proteome [PDF]
Animal Cells and SystemsMammalian spermatozoa acquire fertilizing ability in response to environmental factors enriched in the female reproductive tract, a process called capacitation.

Development of an optimal protocol to induce capacitation of boar spermatozoa in vitro
Journal of Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology, 2022 In 1951, Colin Russell Austin and Min Chueh Chang identified “capacitation”, a special process involving ejaculated spermatozoa in the female reproductive tract.

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Cryopreservation induces capacitation-like (cryo-capacitation) changes, similar to natural capacitation, and affects the fertility potential of post-thawed sperm. The molecular mechanism of sperm cryo-capacitation during cryopreservation remains unknown.

New insights into posttranslational modifications of proteins during bull sperm capacitation
Cell Communication and Signaling, 2023 Background Due to the unique nature of spermatozoa, which are transcriptionally and translationally silent, the regulation of capacitation is based on the formation of posttranslational modifications of proteins (PTMs).
