Mouse genome engineering uncovers 18 genes dispensable for male reproduction
Abstract Background Male infertility is an intricate multifactorial disease involving the interplay between genetic and environmental factors. Genetic anomalies account for more than 15% of all male infertility cases; however, diagnosing them exhibits enormous challenges due to variable symptomatic presentations and limited knowledge of gene functions.

Abstract Background Energy metabolism and substrate balance are critical determinants of sperm motility and fertility. Linear motility is necessary for sperm forward movement, whereas hyperactivated motility is a prerequisite for fertilization. The preference of metabolic pathways depends on substrate availability which controls sperm motility. However,

Abstract Background The oxytocin receptor (OR) is a G‐protein‐coupled receptor recently identified in human spermatozoa, whose origin and role in sperm physiology remain unknown. Objectives In this study, using the pig as a model, we examine the presence of the OR in ejaculated spermatozoa through immunofluorescence and immunoblotting, and investigate ...

Impact of Sorting and Catch Media on Porcine Sperm Motility, Capacitation, and Viability
ABSTRACT Background Fluorescence‐activated cell sorting (FACS) has emerged as a powerful tool for selecting spermatozoa of a desired population of fluorescent biomarkers, offering potential applications in reproductive biology and agriculture. However, concerns remain regarding sorting‐induced physiological alterations that could compromise spermatozoa
