Thermotaxis of mammalian sperm cells: A potential navigation mechanism in the female genital tract
(Nature Publishing Group, 2003-02)
Sperm guidance in mammals - An unpaved road to the egg
(Nature Publishing Group, 2006-04-01)
Contrary to the prevalent view, there seems to be no competition in the mammalian female genital tract among large numbers of sperm cells that are racing towards the egg. Instead, small numbers of the ejaculated sperm cells ...
Mechanisms of the sperm guidance, an essential aid for meeting the oocyte
(AME Publishing, 2017-03)
In mammals, ejaculated spermatozoa must migrate into the female reproductive tract in order to reach and fertilize the oocyte (Figure 1). The number of spermatozoa that reach the oviductal isthmus (where they attach to ...
Getting to and away from the egg, an interplay between several sperm transport mechanisms and a complex oviduct physiology
(Elsevier Ireland, 2020-12-01)
In mammals, the architecture and physiology of the oviduct are very complex, and one long-lasting intriguing question is how spermatozoa are transported from the sperm reservoir in the isthmus to the oocyte surface. In ...
Sperm Chemotaxis in Mammals
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2015)
Sperm cells evolved to acquire a sophisticated motility structure called a flagellum which gives spermatozoa a self-propelling force. Nonetheless, in internal fertilizing species such as mammals, the length and complexity ...
