Analysis of epididymal sperm from Korean native bull (Hanwoo) aged at 8 and 15 months before freezing and after thawing

open access: yesJournal of Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology, 2016
The recovery of epididymal sperm in animals is considered as one of the important tools to preserve high value or endangered species. However, there are no appropriate castrating indicators such as months of age in bull, sperm morphology, and motility ...

Machine learning-based clustering to identify the combined effect of the DNA fragmentation index and conventional semen parameters on in vitro fertilization outcomes

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2023
Background Previous studies have demonstrated an association between male sperm quality and assisted reproduction outcomes, focusing on the effects of individual parameters and reaching controversial conclusions.

Physiology of sperm motility

open access: yesUrologicheskie vedomosti, 2013
The present study gives an overview of the current knowledge on mechanisms providing sperm motility and forward progression. The role of multiple mechanic and chemical factors is described.

Oral Engineered Extracellular Vesicles Based on Ion Exchange Strategy for Multipronged Management of Wilson's Disease Complicated with Reproductive Dysfunction Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reports for the first time an oral targeted nanomedicine that conducts ion exchange through engineered Ganoderma‐derived extracellular vesicle, managing both the in‐copper and ex‐copper in a multi‐pronged approach, offering a promising therapeutic strategy for addressing WD with reproductive dysfunction.

Objective Measurement of Sperm Motility

open access: yesPoultry Science, 1973
Abstract An experiment was designed to develop an objective technique for measuring rooster sperm motility. A Beckman Spectronic 20 spectrophotometer was used to measure optical densities of sperm suspensions while they were flowing through the spectrophotometer.

Collective motility of sperm in confined cells [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, 2013
Mammalian fertility analysis is an important industrial issue because of the selection for breeding. This is one reason, beside fundamental interest, for which many studies analyse the individual motion of the spermatozoon (Gaffney et al. 2011). On the other hand, more recent reviews suggest that neither individual motion indicators or molecular ...

RSPO2 Coordinates with GDF9:BMP15 Heterodimers to Promote Granulosa Cell and Oocyte Development in Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
RSPO2 and GDF9:BMP15 heterodimers—core components of oocyte‐secreted factors (OSFs)—coordinate to shape the molecular architecture of preantral granulosa cells via gene‐specific synergistic and antagonistic regulation, mediated through CTNNB1–SMAD2 signaling crosstalk.

Signaling Enzymes Required for Sperm Maturation and Fertilization in Mammals

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2019
In mammals, motility and fertilizing ability of spermatozoa develop during their passage through the epididymis. After ejaculation, sperm undergo capacitation and hyperactivation in the female reproductive tract – a motility transition that is required ...

Therapeutic Repair of Sperm Quality Decline Caused by Polytetrafluoroethylene

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Exposure to PTFE (teflon), a commonly used microplastic in non‐stick cookware, significantly reduces sperm quality in both humans and mice. Specifically, PTFE induces the disruption of sperm cytoskeleton and F‐actin assembly through targeting SKAP2 in haploid spermatid.
