Analysis of Ca2+-mediated sperm motility to evaluate the functional normality of the sperm-specific Ca2+ channel, CatSper
Ca2+ is a key secondary messenger that modulates sperm motility by tuning flagellar movement in various species. The sperm-specific Ca2+ channel, CatSper, is a primary Ca2+ gate that is essential for male fertility in mammals. CatSper-mediated Ca2+ signaling enables sperm to develop hyperactivated m...
