Deciphering mRNA Translation During Sperm Capacitation: A New Frontier in Fertility Research
Molecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 93, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT Male infertility accounts for approximately 50% of infertility cases, with nearly 30% remaining unexplained after standard evaluations. This highlights the need for a better understanding of sperm function to advance diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Sperm were long considered translationally quiescent; however, emerging evidence suggests

In natural reproduction, delaying conception does not result in the same child being born later, but rather a different child altogether; therefore, prospective ...
