摘要: During mammalian fertilization, the contact between sperm and egg triggers increases in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2++]i) sperm. Voltage-gated channels (CaVs) are believed to mediate initial phase of [Ca2+]i induced by coat (zona pellucida [ZP]) glycoproteins, while store depletion-activated entry is thought sustained phase. Using patch-clamp recording imaging, we show herein that CaV channel currents, found spermatogenic cells, not detectable epididymal essential for ZP-induced changes. Instead, CATSPER localized distal portion (the principal piece) required increases. Furthermore, increase starts from tail propagates toward head.
