Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Male Ruminant Reproduction — A Review
TL;DR: Four aspects of PUFA are reviewed in light of previous research including rumen metabolism, biological roles, influence on reproduction, and strategies to use in male ruminants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deterioration of goat sperm viability in milk extenders is due to a bulbourethral 60-kilodalton glycoprotein with triglyceride lipase activity.
TL;DR: The preliminary identification of the goat BUSgp60 as a bulbourethral lipase belonging to the PL-RP2 family is supported, for the best preservation of goat semen, specific inhibitors of this family of lipase could be added into milk-based extenders without eliminating seminal plasma.

Epididymis cholesterol homeostasis and sperm fertilizing ability.
TL;DR: A review of data reported showing how imbalanced cholesterol levels may particularly affect the post-testicular events of sperm maturation that lead to fully fertile male gametes is focused on.

Incorporating Lipids into Boar Sperm Decreases Chilling Sensitivity but Not Capacitation Potential
TL;DR: Liposomes of complex composition can fuse to boar sperm without harming in vitro capacitation or acrosome reaction and reduce sperm chilling sensitivity.

TL;DR: This is the first study aimed at ascertaining the metabolome of spermatozoa from bulls with different fertility phenotype using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and identified five metabolites in the two groups of sires that can be used, in the future, as key indicators of bull fertility.

A simple method for the isolation and purification of total lipides from animal tissues.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors described a simplified version of the method and reported the results of a study of its application to different tissues, including the efficiency of the washing procedure in terms of the removal from tissue lipides of some non-lipide substances of special biochemical interest.

Two dimensional thin layer chromatographic separation of polar lipids and determination of phospholipids by phosphorus analysis of spots
TL;DR: Separation of polar lipids by two-dimensional thin layer chromatography providing resolution of all the lipid classes commonly encountered in animal cells and a sensitive, rapid, reproducible procedure for determination of phospholipids by phosphorus analysis of spots are described.
