Thermotaxis of human sperm cells in extraordinarily shallow temperature gradients over a wide range.

PLoS ONE, Vol 7, Iss 7, p e41915 (2012)
On the basis of the finding that capacitated (ready to fertilize) rabbit and human spermatozoa swim towards warmer temperatures by directing their movement along a temperature gradient, sperm thermotaxis has been proposed to be one of the processes g

Biased motion of motile cells in a concentration gradient of a chemoattractant is frequently studied on the population level. This approach has been particularly employed in human sperm chemotactic assays, where the fraction of responsive cells is lo

Recently, the switch-motor complex of bacterial flagella was found to be associated with a number of non-flagellar proteins, which, in spite of not being known as belonging to the chemotaxis system, affect the function of the flagella. The observatio

Models of growth hormone (GH) rhythmogenesis which we and others have presented suggest that the GH pulses in the circulation are generated by a GH-releasing hormone (GHRH) oscillator with a 1 h periodicity. Here we examine the possibility that this

Precontact communication between gametes is established by chemotaxis. Sperm chemotaxis toward factor(s) in follicular fluid (FF) has been demonstrated in humans and mice. In humans, the chemotactic responsiveness is restricted to capacitated spermat

Growth hormone (GH) induces growth in animals and humans and also has important metabolic functions. The GH neuroendocrine axis consists of a signaling cascade from the hypothalamus to the pituitary, the liver, and peripheral tissues, including two m

The rotation of bacterial flagella is driven by the difference in electrochemical potential for protons between the periplasmic and the cytoplasmic space. This requires a coupling between a flow of protons across the cell membrane and the rotation of

Switching flagellar rotation from one direction to another is an essential part of bacterial chemotaxis. Fumarate has been shown to possess the capacity to restore to flagella of cytoplasm-free, CheY-containing bacterial envelopes the ability to swit

Bacterial flagella are rotated by a motor embedded in the cytoplasmic membrane, the direction of rotation being dictated by a switch at the base of the motor. In the case of bacteria such as E.coli and Salmonella, the motor is driven by the proton-mo
