CRISPs Function to Boost Sperm Power Output and Motility
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Fertilization requires sperm to travel long distances through the complex environment of the female reproductive tract. Despite the strong association between poor motility and infertility, the kinetics of sperm tail movement and the role individual ...

Formation and function of sperm tail structures in association with sperm motility defects† [PDF]
Biology of Reproduction, 2017 Male infertility is an increasing problem partly due to inherited genetic variations. Mutations in genes involved in formation of the sperm tail cause motility defects and thus male infertility. Therefore, it is crucial to understand the protein networks required for sperm differentiation.

Essential Role of CFAP53 in Sperm Flagellum Biogenesis
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 The sperm flagellum is essential for male fertility. Despite vigorous research progress toward understanding the pathogenesis of flagellum-related diseases, much remains unknown about the mechanisms underlying the flagellum biogenesis itself.

pH-dependent effects of procaine on equine gamete activation [PDF]
, 2019 Procaine directly triggers pH-dependent cytokinesis in equine oocytes and induces hypermotility in stallion spermatozoa, an important event during capacitation. However, procaine-induced hyperactivated motility is abolished when sperm is washed to remove

Sperm tail axoneme alterations in the Wobbler mouse [PDF]
Reproduction, 1980 Summary. In Wobbler mice (neurological mutants affected with progressive motor neurone degenerative disease) a defect in sperm tail mobility and axonemal geometry was observed. Similar but less extensive abnormalities were seen in the ciliary axonemes of the ductuli efferentes.
