Dibutyl phthalate disrupts glycogen synthase kinase 3α essential for sperm motility

To unravel the toxic mechanism of phthalate ester plasticizer endocrine disruptor in spermatozoa, we examined the effect of dibutyl phthalate (DBP) on the stability and inhibitory phosphorylation of glycogen synthase kinase 3α (GSK3α), a protein kinase crucial for sperm motility in mice. In DBP-trea...
