5’-AMP-Activated Protein Kinase Regulates Goat Sperm Functions via Energy Metabolism In Vitro

Background/Aims: ATP is essential for mammalian sperm to survive and maintain fertilizing capacity. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a sensor of cellular energy status. The aims of the present study were to explore the localization of AMPK in goat sperm and to investigate whether and how AMPK...
