Molecular Pathways Involved in Stallion Sperm Capacitation

After ejaculation, mammalian spermatozoa must undergo a series of complex and poorly understood cellular events known as “capacitation” in order to be able to fertilize an oocyte. Among these, biochemical changes such as an increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of some sperm proteins have been correl...
