α-Tocopherol modifies tyrosine phosphorylation and capacitation-like state of cryopreserved porcine sperm

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
The addition of alpha-tocopherol to the extender prior to cryopreservation of boar semen protected sperm membranes against oxidative damage and reduced both tyrosine phosphorylation and the capacitation-like state.

The effect of antioxidants on motility, viability, acrosome integrity and DNA integrity of frozen-thawed epididymal cat spermatozoa.

TL;DR: In conclusion, cysteine or vitamin E supplementation of tris egg yolk extender improved motility, progressive motility and integrity of the sperm membrane and DNA of frozen-thawed epididymal cat spermatozoa.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proteomic characteristics of human sperm cryopreservation.

TL;DR: Proteomic analysis of differential protein characteristics between freeze‐thawed and fresh sperm samples obtained from nine normozoospermic donors suggest that dysfunctional spermatozoon after cryopreservation may be due to protein degradation and protein phosphorylation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anti-oxidant supplementation improves boar sperm characteristics and fertility after cryopreservation: Comparison between cysteine and rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis)

TL;DR: The addition of exogenous rosemary or cysteine to the freezing extender positively affected post-thawed viability and acrosome integrity and the inclusion of rosemary into the extender was effective in penetration and cleavage rate and also in the efficiency of the fertilization system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reactive oxygen species generators affect quality parameters and apoptosis markers differently in red deer spermatozoa.

TL;DR: There were important differences between ROS generators, H( 2)O(2) being the most cytotoxic and caspase activation was tested using the (FAM-VAD-FMK) probe.

Cleavage of Structural Proteins during the Assembly of the Head of Bacteriophage T4

TL;DR: Using an improved method of gel electrophoresis, many hitherto unknown proteins have been found in bacteriophage T4 and some of these have been identified with specific gene products.

TL;DR: Using an improved method of gel electrophoresis, many hitherto unknown proteins have been found in bacteriophage T4 and some of these have been identified with specific gene products as mentioned in this paper.

The causes of reduced fertility with cryopreserved semen

TL;DR: Evidence for new approaches for improving the performance of cryopreserved semen is offered and factors affecting the proportion of survivors and functional status of survivors are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent developments and concepts in the cryopreservation of spermatozoa and the assessment of their post-thawing function.

TL;DR: The hypothesis is advanced that cryopreserved mammalian spermatozoa are in a state resembling capacitation, which accounts for their relatively reduced longevity and their readiness to undergo egg penetration without incubation.

Capacitation of mouse spermatozoa. II. Protein tyrosine phosphorylation and capacitation are regulated by a cAMP-dependent pathway.

TL;DR: Up-regulation of protein tyrosine phosphorylation by cAMP/PKA in sperm is, to the authors' knowledge, the first demonstration of such an interrelationship between tyrosin kinase/phosphatase and PKA signaling pathways.
