Sperm capacitation in bulls, rams, bucks, and boars: molecular mechanisms and species-specific differences [PDF]
Frontiers in Veterinary ScienceCapacitation is the process by which sperm undergoes physical, biochemical, and molecular changes to acquire the ability to fertilize an oocyte.

Levels of Protein CoAlation Regulate Redox Signaling Events of Human Sperm Capacitation [PDF]
AntioxidantsInfertility is a global health problem, with male factors contributing to nearly half of all cases. Up to 30% of male infertility is classified as idiopathic, in part because routine semen analysis does not assess sperm fertilizing competence ...

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).

Between Equity and Differentiation: An Analytical schema of the social function of education
International Journal of Sociology of Education, 2013 The educational sphere has an internal function relatively agreed by social scientists. Nonetheless, the contribution that educational systems provide to the society (i.e., their social function) does not have the same degree of consensus.

EFFECT OF DIFFERENT L-ARGININE CONCENTRATIONS ON IN VITRO BUFFALO SEMEN FERTILIZING POTENTIALS [PDF]
Assiut Veterinary Medical Journal, 2016 Sperm capacitation and acrosome reaction are essential for fertilization. L-Arginine plays an important role in the physiology of spermatozoa and has been shown to enhance their metabolism and maintain their motility.

NADPH Oxidase 5 and Melatonin: Involvement in Ram Sperm Capacitation
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an essential role in mammalian sperm capacitation. NADPH oxidase 5 (NOX5) has been described as the main source of ROS production in some mammalian spermatozoa, such as human and equine. On the other hand, melatonin can
