Axonemal regulation by curvature explains sperm flagellar waveform modulation
Meurig T Gallagher, Jackson C Kirkman-Brown, David J Smith
Flagellar motility is critical to natural and many forms of assisted reproduction. Rhythmic beating and wave propagation by the flagellum propels sperm through fluid and enables mo…
Doing more with less: the flagellar end piece enhances the propulsive effectiveness of human spermatozoa
Cara V. Neal, Atticus L. Hall-McNair, Jackson Kirkman-Brown +2
Spermatozoa self-propel by propagating bending waves along a predominantly active elastic flagellum. The organized structure of the "9 + 2" axoneme is lost in the most-distal few m…
Human sperm cells swimming in micro-channels
Petr Denissenko, Vasily Kantsler, David Smith +1
The migratory abilities of motile human spermatozoa in vivo are essential for natural fertility, but it remains a mystery what properties distinguish the tens of cells which find a…
