Reduced levels of intracellular calcium releasing in spermatozoa from asthenozoospermic patients

6 Feb 2009

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Asthenozoospermia is one of the most common findings present in infertile males characterized by reduced or absent sperm motility, but its aetiology remains unknown in most cases. In addition, calcium is one of the most important ions regulating sperm motility. In this study we have investigated the progesterone-evoked intracellular calcium signal in ejaculated spermatozoa from men with normospermia...
