CCR6 is required for ligand-induced CatSper activation in human sperm
CatSper channel has been considered the principal sperm Ca2+ channel responsible for the cytosolic Ca2+ elevation required for various sperm functions necessary for fertilization [1-4]. However, the mechanism underlying the activation of CatSper channel by various physiological ligands remain incompletely understood.

Sperm aktivasyonu ve fertilizasyon yeteneğinin kazanılmasında kalsiyum (Ca+2) iyonu oldukça önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Catsper kanalları, Ca+2’un hücreye girişini düzenleyen, spermlere özgü voltaj kapılı Ca+2 kanallarıdır.

Spermatozoa sea urchin swimming behaviour is regulated by small peptides from the egg outer envelope. Speract, such a peptide, after binding to its receptor in Strongylocentrotus purpuratus sperm flagella, triggers a signaling pathway that culminates ...

Conservation of the Ca2+-permeability through the voltage sensor domain of mammalian CatSper subunit
Cation channel of Spermatozoa (CatSper) is one of the voltage-gated ion channels consisting of voltage sensor domains (VSDs) and pore-gate domains. CatSper is exclusively expressed in spermatozoa and indispensable for Ca2+ influx into cytosol.

Among all the Ca2+ channels, CatSper channels have been one of the most studied in sperm of different species due to their demonstrated role in the fertilization process. In fish sperm, the calcium channel plays a key role in sperm activation.

Background: Low levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and calcium are necessary for sperm function. NADPH oxidase 5 (NOX5) is a membrane enzyme which produces ROS. This enzyme is dependent on calcium for its activity.
