In vitro embryos production (IVP) stands out as reproductive biotechnology in cattle herds, but still with some limitations. The difference between bulls fertility is one of them and only a few studies aimed to understand which aspects characterize this difference. The sperm cell carries besides the paternal DNA, the entire nucleus content attached to it, so it is important to understand …
Given the importance of sperm upon fertilization and early embryonic development, know the effects of changes resulting from cryopreservation, as the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and their impact on this cell is critical to the improvement of biotechnologies such as in vitro fertilization (IVF). The aim of this study will be evaluate the impact of different concentrations o…
The mature spermatozoa present a unique chromatin compaction that allows the protection of paternal DNA during the route until the oocyte. This high degree of compaction is characterized by protamine-DNA binding, the nuclear protein that replaces histone during spermatogenesis. However, some specific regions of the sperm chromatin remain bound to nucleosomes composed of histones. In human…
