الوصف: | Scents and Sperm Once sperm enter the female reproductive tract, they have an arduous task to find an egg at a distant, often concealed, location. McKnight et al. (p. 754 ) show that Caenorhabditis elegans make this task more or less difficult, depending on pheromones in the external environment. Pheromones perceived by female sensory neurons modulate the synthesis of ovarian prostaglandins, which provide sperm positional information. Thus, environmental cues can indirectly impact sperm function even when the sperm themselves are not directly exposed. |
