Cross-species insemination reveals mouse sperm ability to enter and cross the fish micropyle
Extracellular matrices surrounding eggs in fish (chorion) and mammals (zona pellucida [ZP]) regulate gamete recognition before fertilization, though their mechanisms differ.

Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone antagonists inhibit sperm binding to the human zona pellucida [PDF]
Previous work from our laboratory indicated that gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) increases human sperm-zona pellucida binding. Here we present evidence that GnRH antagonists inhibit sperm-zona pellucida binding in humans. Motile spermatozoa (10(7)

The C-terminal region of OVGP1 remodels the zona pellucida and modifies fertility parameters [PDF]
[EN] OVGP1 is the major non-serum glycoprotein in the oviduct fluid at the time of fertilization and early embryo development. Its activity differs among species.
