Capacitation induces changes in metabolic pathways supporting motility of epididymal and ejaculated sperm

Capacitation induces changes in metabolic pathways supporting motility of epididymal and ejaculated sperm

Mammalian sperm require sufficient energy to support motility and capacitation for successful fertilization. Previous studies cataloging the changes to metabolism in sperm explored ejaculated human sperm or dormant mouse sperm surgically extracted from the cauda epididymis. Due to the differences in...
