Computational Modelling of Sperm Behaviour in a 3D Virtual Oviduct [PDF]
, 2011 The processes by which individual sperm cells navigate the length and complexity of the female reproductive tract and then reach and fertilise the oocyte are fascinating. Numerous complex processes potentially influence the movement of spermatozoa within

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2021 Background Published studies have shown contradictory results regarding the relationship between somatometric parameters and varicoceles. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the possible effects of age, height, weight, and ...

Cryopreservation of single-sperm: where are we today?
Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2020 Background Patients with severe oligospermia and nonobstructive azoospermia have very limited numbers of viable sperm in their epididymal and testicular samples. Thus, cryopreservation of their sperm is performed to avoid repeated sperm retrievals and to

Sperm Competition, Sperm Numbers and Sperm Quality in Muroid Rodents
PLoS ONE, 2011 Sperm competition favors increases in relative testes mass and production efficiency, and changes in sperm phenotype that result in faster swimming speeds. However, little is known about its effects on traits that contribute to determine the quality of a whole ejaculate (i.e., proportion of motile, viable, morphologically normal and acrosome intact ...

Gamete evolution and sperm numbers: sperm competition versus sperm limitation [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2014 Both gamete competition and gamete limitation can generate anisogamy from ancestral isogamy, and both sperm competition (SC) and sperm limitation (SL) can increase sperm numbers. Here, we compare the marginal benefits due to these two components at any given population level of sperm production using the risk and intensity models in sperm economics. We

Cryopreservation of common carp sperm [PDF]
, 2003 Experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of five extenders (sucrose, glucose, fructose, KCl and a saline carp sperm extender) and two cryoprotectants (dimethyl-sulfoxide (DMSO) and methanol) on the cryopreservation of common carp sperm ...
