Dependence of sperm structural and functional integrity on testicular calcineurin isoform PPP3R2 expression
21 Dec 2019
Abstract excerpt
After leaving the testis, mammalian sperm undergo a sequential maturation process in the epididymis followed by capacitation during their movement through the female reproductive tract. These phenotypic changes are associated with modification of protein phosphorylation and membrane remodeling, which is requisite for sperm to acquire forward motility and induce fertilization. However, the molecular mechanisms...
