Validation of sORP, a Measure of Oxidative Stress, in Australian Population

open access: yesFertility & Reproduction, 2022
Background: Excessive reactive oxygen species are normally eliminated by seminal plasma free radical antioxidant scavengers and enzymes. Assessing the oxidation reduction potential of seminal fluid (mV/million sperm/mL) enables the detection of an ...

Sperm design and sperm function [PDF]

open access: yesBiology Letters, 2006
Spermatozoa vary enormously in their form and dimensions, both between and within species, yet how this variation translates into fertilizing efficiency is not known. Sperm swimming velocity is a key determinant of male fertilization success, but previous efforts to identity which sperm phenotypic traits are associated with swimming ...

Sperm Cholesterol Content Modifies Sperm Function and TRPV1-Mediated Sperm Migration [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Transient receptor potential channels-vanilloid receptor 1 (TRPV1) regulates thermotaxis in sperm-oriented motility. We investigated the role of membrane cholesterol (Chol) on TRPV1-mediated human sperm migration. Semen samples were obtained from five normozoospemic healthy volunteers.
