Evaluation of in vitro capacitation of stallion spermatozoa.
The primary aim of this study was to establish a flow cytometric technique for determining the capacitation status of stallion spermatozoa. To this end, a flow cytometric technique that demonstrates changes in plasma membrane fluidity; namely, merocyanine 540 staining, was compared with the more conventional Ca(2+)-dependent fluorescence microscopic technique, chlortetracycline (CTC) staining, ...
متن کاملREAC technology as optimizer of stallion spermatozoa liquid storage
BACKGROUND REAC technology (acronym for Radio Electric Asymmetric Conveyor) is a technology platform for neuro and bio modulation. It has already proven to optimize the ions fluxes at the molecular level and the molecular mechanisms driving cellular asymmetry and polarization. METHODS This study was designed to verify whether this technology could extend spermatozoa life-span during liquid st...
متن کاملImplication of transcriptome profiling of spermatozoa for stallion fertility.
Poor fertility of breeding stallions is a recognised problem in the equine industry. The aim of the present study was to detect molecular pathways using two groups of stallions that differed in pregnancy rates as well as in the proportion of normal and motile spermatozoa. RNA was isolated from spermatozoa of each stallion and microarray data were analysed to obtain a list of genes for which tra...
متن کاملImproving the Post-thaw Viability of Cryopreserved Stallion Spermatozoa
The present study was to improve the success for the cryopreservation of stallion spermatozoa, especially as the costs of using low post-thaw motility or sub-optimal fertility deters owners and breeders from using frozen semen. The aim was to develop a freezing extender/process that supports cell survivability throughout the freezing. Eleven stallions were collected and frozen in INRA 96 with t...
متن کاملNew Methods for Selecting Stallion Spermatozoa for Assisted Reproduction
Improved sperm selection techniques are needed to increase the efficiency of equineassisted reproduction. Single layer centrifugation (SLC) of spermatozoa has been shown to improve the quality of stallion sperm samples. In this study, the functionality of selected stallion spermatozoa was tested by intracytoplasmic sperm injection of equine oocytes after selection by SLC through Androcoll-E or ...
