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

International 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.

Distribution of Glycoproteins on Feline Testicular Sperm, Epididymal Sperm and Ejaculated Sperm

Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 2011
Glycoproteins (GPs) are known to be involved in the phenomenon of sperm maturation and capacitation. In the present study, we investigated the attachment of GPs on sperm cell membrane during the process of feline sperm maturation from testicular sperm to ejaculated sperm by using 8 FITC-labeled lectins.

Post-Meiotic Intra-Testicular Sperm Senescence in a Wild Vertebrate [PDF]

, 2012
There is growing interest in sperm senescence, both in its underlying mechanisms and evolutionary consequences, because it can impact the evolution of numerous life history traits. Previous studies have documented various types of sperm senescence, but

Gene sequencing and result analysis of balanced translocation carriers by third-generation gene sequencing technology

Scientific Reports, 2023
Because the total gene copy number remains constant and all genes are normally expressed, carriers of balanced chromosomal translocations usually have a normal phenotype but are able to produce many different types of gametes during meiosis, and ...
