Zinc and magnesium in bull and boar spermatozoa

Effects of HSPA8, an evolutionarily conserved oviductal protein, on boar and bull spermatozoa.

Previous studies have shown that a soluble protein fraction derived from preparations of apical plasma membrane (APM) of the oviductal epithelium enhances the in vitro survival of mammalian spermatozoa. Here, we show that the survival enhancing property of the soluble protein fraction seems to depend significantly upon heat shock 70 kDa protein 8 (HSPA8 previously known as HSPA10). The followin...

the effect of oxytetracycline on serum calcium, phosphorus and magnesium in cattle

نتایج این مطالعه نشان می دهد که مقدار کلسیم (یونیزه و تام)، منیزیم و فسفر به طور معنی داری تغییر پیدا کرد به جزء مقدار کلسیم تام و منیزیم در روش داخل عضلانی که تغییر معنی داری نداشته است. بر اساس نتایج این مطالعه می توان نتیجه گیری کرد که اکسی تتراساکلین بر روی مقادیر سرمی کلسیم و منیزیم تأثیر می گذارد باید مقدار این کاتیون ها در بیماران، در هنگامی که اکسی تتراسایکلین استفاده می شود مورد توجه ق...

Study of Bull Spermatozoa

The electron microscope has been used to determine the characteristic dimensions and the distribution of the dry mass in bull spermatozoa. The most important result is that all characteristic data are occurring in logarithmic distributions. Furthermore, no correlation between such parameters as head weight and tail weight or head length and tail length was found. The occurrence in logarithmic d...

Immunocytochemical localization of acrosin in the anterior segment of the acrosomes of ram , boar and bull spermatozoa

Acrosin, a trypsin-like proteinase found in spermatozoa, is believed to play an essential role in fertilization by aiding the spermatozoon to penetrate the zona pellucida surrounding the egg (Mc Rorie and Williams, 1974). The precise cellular location of this enzyme is of considerable interest since such knowledge would aid in elucidating its mode of action. Biochemical studies have indicated t...
