Effects of Green Tea Extract and (+)‐Catechin Hydrate on Sperm Quality and Seminal Plasma Antioxidant Activity: An In Vitro Study in Rams [PDF]
This study investigated the in vitro effects of green tea extract (GTE) and (+)‐catechin on semen quality parameters of Arabi rams during chilled storage. The results showed that GTE and catechin enhance semen parameters during chilled storage, with optimal effects at specific concentrations.

Expression of Tas1 taste receptors in mammalian spermatozoa [PDF]
Background: During their transit through the female genital tract, sperm have to recognize and discriminate numerous chemical compounds. However, our current knowledge of the molecular identity of appropriate chemosensory receptor proteins in sperm is ...

Spermatozoa collected from the cauda epididymis of wild ruminants are more cryoresistant than ejaculated spermatozoa. Changes in the membrane location of aquaporins (AQPs) follow the osmotic changes that occur during freeze-thawing, and might influence ...

Increased frequency of aneuploidy in long-lived spermatozoa. [PDF]
Aneuploidy commonly causes spontaneous abortions, stillbirths, and aneuploid births in humans. Notably, the majority of sex chromosome aneuploidies in live births have a paternal origin.

A new insight into male fertility preservation for patients with completely immotile spermatozoa
Background Sperm cryopreservation is the most effective method to preserve male fertility but this is normally used for motile spermatozoa. Thus, only motile spermatozoa are used for cryopreservation in most reproductive medicine centers worldwide.

Structural Abnormalities of Spermatozoa in Triploid Gynogenetic Crucian Carp (Carassius auratus)
The spermatozoa of triploid gynogenetic crucian carp (Carassius auratus) (3nDTCC) possess a spermatogenesis process with a normal genetic background. However, the genetic materials of these spermatozoa do not completely inherit gynogenetic progeny in ...

Rheotaxis facilitates upstream navigation of mammalian sperm cells [PDF]
A major puzzle in biology is how mammalian sperm maintain the correct swimming direction during various phases of the sexual reproduction process. Whilst chemotaxis may dominate near the ovum, it is unclear which cues guide spermatozoa on their long ...
