Lactate‐Responsive Glycogen Dynamics Are Associated With Bull Sperm Motility and Fertilization Under Glucose‐Limited Conditions

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Mammalian sperm need to undergo hyperactivation, capacitation, and acrosome reaction to achieve fertilization competence. However, the female reproductive tract presents contrasting metabolic environments. The uterus is glucose‐rich, and the oviduct is lactate‐rich and glucose‐limited.

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
This study quantified body temperature dynamics throughout reproductive stages in crossbred ewes based on complementary monitoring techniques. Five ewes from a semi‐extensive farming system were included in two sub‐trials: animals were first assessed in the prepubertal stage and, subsequently, an oestrous cycle was induced by intravaginal progesterone ...
