Research Abstract |
We are aiming to elucidate of control mechanisms of sperm movement and function during fertilization. In this study, we have studied on chemotaxis of ascidian spermatozoa and regulation of sperm capacitation by seminal plasma. Finally, we have found that a plasma membrane Ca^<2+>/ATPase is involved in ascidian sperm chemotaxis. In mouse, seminal vesicle secretion 2(SVS2) is essential for regulating sperm capacitation in female genital tract.
