Porcine Sperm Bind to Specific 6-Sialylated Biantennary Glycans to Form the Oviduct Reservoir1

1 Nov 2012

Abstract excerpt

After mating, many female mammals store a subpopulation of sperm in the lower portion of the oviduct, forming a reservoir. The reservoir lengthens sperm lifespan, regulates sperm capacitation, controls polyspermy, and selects normal sperm. It is believed that sperm bind to glycans on the oviduct epithelium to form the reservoir, but the specific adhesion molecules that retain sperm are unclear. Herein, using a...
