EFFECT OF DIFFERENT L-ARGININE CONCENTRATIONS ON IN VITRO BUFFALO SEMEN FERTILIZING POTENTIALS [PDF]

open access: yesAssiut 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.

Between Equity and Differentiation: An Analytical schema of the social function of education

open access: yesInternational 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.

Mitochondrial Activation and Reactive Oxygen-Species Overproduction during Sperm Capacitation are Independent of Glucose Stimuli

open access: yesAntioxidants, 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.

Redox regulation of mammalian sperm capacitation

open access: yesAsian Journal of Andrology, 2015
Capacitation is a series of morphological and metabolic changes necessary for the spermatozoon to achieve fertilizing ability. One of the earlier happenings during mammalian sperm capacitation is the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that will ...

Influence of in vitro capacitation time on structural and functional human sperm parameters

open access: yesAsian Journal of Andrology, 2020
A cascade of dramatic physiological events is linked to the sperm acrosome reaction and binding to the oocyte's zona pellucida during human sperm capacitation.

Mammalian sperm capacitation: In vivo and in vitro juxtaposition

open access: yesVeterinary Integrative Sciences, 2022
The development of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) in mammalian species such as in vitro embryo production (IVEP) has the potential to provide great benefits for significant population increase, improve genetic performance and ...

Osteopontin enhances sperm capacitation and in vitro fertilization efficiency in boars

open access: yesJournal of Animal Science and Technology, 2022
In this study, we used more reliable experimental materials and methods to detect the effects of osteopontin (OPN) on boar sperm in vitro capacitation, acrosome reaction, and fertilization efficiency.

Capacitation promotes a shift in energy metabolism in murine sperm

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
In mammals, sperm acquire fertilization ability after a series of physiological and biochemical changes, collectively known as capacitation, that occur inside the female reproductive tract. In addition to other requirements, sperm bioenergetic metabolism

Seminal CD38 Enhances Human Sperm Capacitation through Its Interaction with CD31. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Human sperm have to undergo a maturational process called capacitation in the female reproductive tract. Capacitation confers upon the sperm an ability to gain hypermotility and undergo acrosome reaction.

Adhesion to oviduct glycans regulates porcine sperm Ca2+ influx and viability.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Before fertilization, sperm bind to epithelial cells of the oviduct isthmus to form a reservoir that regulates sperm viability and capacitation. The sperm reservoir maintains optimum fertility in species, like swine, in which semen deposition and ...
