Calpain Regulates Reactive Oxygen Species Production during Capacitation through the Activation of NOX2 and NOX4
Capacitation is a series of physiological, biochemical, and metabolic changes experienced by mammalian spermatozoa. These changes enable them to fertilize eggs. The capacitation prepares the spermatozoa to undergo the acrosomal reaction and hyperactivated motility. Several mechanisms that regulate c...
