Sperm Autoantigens and Fertilization: II. Effects of Anti-Guinea Pig Sperm Autoantibodies on Sperm-Ovum Interactions [PDF]
Bivalent (lgG) and monovalent (Fab) antibodies isolated from antisperm autoantiserum of the guinea pig were tested for their effects on 1) the penetration of guinea pig anna pellucidaby acrosome-reacted guinea pig spermatozoa and 2) the fusion of acrosome-reacted guinea pig spermatozoa with plasma membranes of guinea pig and hamster ova.

The Relation between Follicular Fluid Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH), Oocyte Maturation and Embryo Development in Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) Cycles [PDF]
background : Placing the human ovum with spermatozoa outside the women and transferring the resulting embryo to her uterus is a relatively recent, and rapidly evolving approach to overcome human fertility problems.

Assessment of Expression Levels and Localization Patterns of Phospholipase C zeta in Different Grades of HOST in Human Sperm [PDF]
Background: Phospholipase C zeta (PLC-ζ) deficiency in sperm can underlie oocyte activation failure after intracytoplasmicsperm injection (ICSI). The aim of this study was to determine PLC-ζ expression and location in individualspermatozoa in each host ...

Rheotaxis facilitates upstream navigation of mammalian sperm cells
A major puzzle in biology is how mammalian sperm maintain the correct swimming direction during various phases of the sexual reproduction process. Whilst chemotaxis may dominate near the ovum, it is unclear which cues guide spermatozoa on their long ...

Characterisation of ADAMs (protein)of bovine seminal plasma by Mass Spectrometry
This study has been designed to analyse the secreted and soluble proteins in bovine seminal plasma by mass spectrometry. The majority of these proteins are produced by accessory glands, and partially by testis, epididymis, ductus deferens and vas ...
