Male infertility-related molecules involved in sperm-oocyte fusion.

The Journal of reproduction and development - 16 Feb 2017

Mou Lisha, Xie Ni

Abstract excerpt

Male infertility has become a very serious problem in the human reproduction system, but the molecular mechanism of infertility remains largely unknown. Fertilization is the phenomenon in which a sperm and oocyte find each other, interact, and fuse. Sperm-oocyte fusion-related factors on the sperm side play crucial roles in male infertility. For example, IZUMO1 is well-known as a sperm protein essential for...
