Gene Expression and Protein Synthesis in Mitochondria Enhance the Duration of High-Speed Linear Motility in Boar Sperm

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Sperm motility patterns are continuously changed after ejaculation to fertilization in the female tract. Hyperactivated motility is induced with high glucose medium in vitro or the oviduct fluids in vivo, whereas sperm maintain linear motility in the ...

Association of heat shock protein 70 with motility of frozen-thawed sperm in bulls

open access: yesCzech Journal of Animal Science, 2015
Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) is considered as a gene which affects semen quality traits. The present study attempted to investigate the relationship between the HSP70 expression level and motility of bull sperm during the process of freezing-thawing ...

Energy metabolism in mammalian sperm motility.

open access: yesWIREs Mechanisms of Disease, 2022
Mammalian sperm, the only cells that achieve their purpose outside their organism of origin, have to swim vigorously within the female reproductive tract to reach an oocyte.

Predicting fertility from sperm motility landscapes

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
Understanding the organisational principles of sperm motility has both evolutionary and applied impact. The emergence of computer aided systems in this field came with the promise of automated quantification and classification, potentially improving our ...

Structure and Function of Ion Channels Regulating Sperm Motility—An Overview

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Sperm motility is linked to the activation of signaling pathways that trigger movement. These pathways are mainly dependent on Ca2+, which acts as a secondary messenger.

SPATA33 localizes calcineurin to the mitochondria and regulates sperm motility in mice

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance Calcineurin is a target of immunosuppressive drugs such as cyclosporine A and tacrolimus. In the immune system, calcineurin interacts with NFAT via the PxIxIT motif to activate T cells.

Regulation of sperm motility in Eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) spawning naturally in seawater with low salinity.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Oyster aquaculture is expanding worldwide, where many farms rely on seed produced by artificial spawning. As sperm motility and velocity are key determinants for fertilization success, understanding the regulation of sperm motility and identifying ...
