Occurrence and functional significance of the transcriptome in bovine (Bos taurus) spermatozoa
Mammalian spermatozoa deliver various classes of RNAs to the oocyte during fertilization, and many of them may regulate fertility. The objective of the present study was to determine the composition and abundance of spermatozoal transcripts in fresh bull

To the Editor: —In the Current Comment on "The Function of the Prostate" (The Journal, Feb. 17, 1917, p. 553), it is stated that "it has been noted that the spermatozoa are practically motionless while in the seminiferous tubules of the testis, but become actively motile in the vas deferens, or when mixed with prostatic secretion." The statement that

Cryoprotectant-free vitrification of human spermatozoa in new artificial seminal fluid [PDF]
Vitrification is a new method that has been recently introduced in Assisted Reproduction Technique programs. The aim of this study was to design a new medium similar to normal human seminal fluid (SF), formulation artificial seminal fluid (ASF), and to ...

Characterization of the Olfactory Receptors Expressed in Human Spermatozoa
The detection of external cues is fundamental for human spermatozoa to locate the oocyte in the female reproductive tract. This task requires a specific chemoreceptor repertoire that is expressed on the surface of human spermatozoa, which is not fully ...

Spermatozoa: A Historical Perspective.
ABSTRACT: The 100,000th scientific article on the subject of spermatozoa was recently published. Numerous studies evaluated the characteristics of this important cell that led to tremendous discoveries. Since its first observation and description in 1677, many important characteristics have been described regarding this highly fascinating gamete.
