Journal ArticleDOI
Endometrial dating and determination of the window of implantation in healthy fertile women.
Anibal A Acosta,Laura Elberger,M. Borghi,J.C. Calamera,Héctor E. Chemes,Gustavo F. Doncel,Harvey J. Kliman,Baltasar Lema,Livia Lustig,Sergio Papier +9 more
TL;DR: The three most cited markers that frame the window of implantation do not correlate in the material.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum inhibin B may be a reliable marker of the presence of testicular spermatozoa in patients with nonobstructive azoospermia
Santiago Brugo-Olmedo,Sabrina De Vincentiis,J.C. Calamera,F. Urrutia,Florencia Nodar,Anibal A. Acosta +5 more
TL;DR: Serum inhibin B level seems to be more accurate than serum FSH level in prediction of the presence of testicular spermatozoa in patients with nonobstructive azoospermia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of long‐term in vitro incubation of human spermatozoa: functional parameters and catalase effect
TL;DR: The major alteration observed in sperm function during the prolonged in vitro incubation was a reduction in the number of motile spermatozoa, together with an impairment in the quality of sperm movement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human sperm subpopulations: relationship between functional quality and protein tyrosine phosphorylation
Mariano G. Buffone,Gustavo F. Doncel,C.I. Marín Briggiler,Mónica H. Vazquez-Levin,J.C. Calamera +4 more
TL;DR: Poor quality sperm isolated from a Percoll gradient display an intrinsic tyrosine phosphorylation deficiency, possibly caused by a plasma membrane defect, which is associated with their inability to undergo normal capacitation and, ultimately, acquire optimal fertilizing potential.
Journal ArticleDOI
High Cholesterol Content and Decreased Membrane Fluidity in Human Spermatozoa Are Associated With Protein Tyrosine Phosphorylation and Functional Deficiencies
TL;DR: A defect in membrane composition and dynamics is underlying human sperm biochemical and functional deficiencies related to inadequate capacitation, which impairs the normal increase in membrane fluidity during capacitation and its consequent activation of protein tyrosine phosphorylation and hypermotility.
