A gene set enrichment analysis of 178 strong-evidence male infertility genes reveals overrepresentation of ciliary, endocrine, and DNA repair pathways with roles in extra-gonadal organ systems.
It is important to select fertile sperm with good motility to obtain high IVF rates. Conventional cell sorters use flow cytometry to separate specific cells by type, and can be used to select sperm. However, since sperm cells are susceptible…
The study also validates that rheotaxis selects the healthy, motile, and higher velocity sperm cells for the fertilization process. The shear stress inside the device is generated by fluid flow using a syringe pump. A raw semen sample is then…
