Relevance of CRISP proteins for epididymal physiology, fertilization, and fertility
19 Jun 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The molecular mechanisms involved in the acquisition of mammalian sperm fertilizing ability are still poorly understood, reflecting the complexity of this process. OBJECTIVES: In this review, we describe the role of Cysteine RIch Secretory Proteins (CRISP1-4) in different steps of the sperm journey to the egg as well as their relevance for fertilization and fertility. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We analyze...
