Morphology of mammalian sperm membranes during differentiation, maturation, and capacitation

1 Dec 1990

Abstract excerpt

The mammalian spermatozoon is a highly polarized cell whose surface membrane can be divided into five functionally, structurally, and biochemically distinct domains. These domains are formed during spermatogenesis, continue to be modified during passage through the epididymis, and are further refined in the female reproductive tract. The integrity of these domains appears to be necessary for the sperm to perform...
