Importance of sperm motility
Sperm motility is described as “the ability of sperm to move properly towards
an egg”. This “quality” of
sperm acts as a factor for successful pregnancies.
Sperms which
cannot move forward or non motile will not be able to fertilize the egg as they
cannot reach it. Hence quality of
sperms is more
important than quantity of sperms.
Sperms get produced
through a process called spermatogenesis. This process takes place inside a
man’s testes. The walls of seminiferous tubules play a great role in production
of sperms. The sperms thus produced are stored in epididymis (coiled structures
present on the upper part of testes) for several days. The sperm use their tails
to push themselves into the epididymis and complete their development here. It
takes sperm about 4 to 6 weeks to travel through the epididymis
During ejaculation the sperms are pushed out of epididymis . These sperms pass
through ductus deferens, spermatic cord, and
prostate gland
to urethra. This movement of sperms is aided by peristaltic (contraction and
relaxation) movement of muscles of male reproductive system. The seminal
vesicles and prostate gland produce a whitish fluid called seminal fluid, which
mixes with sperms to form
semen when a male is sexually stimulated.
When men ejaculate during intercourse, semen is deposited into the fold called
fornix near the cervix (neck of the uterus). From the fornix, the sperms swim
their way up through the cervix and move through the uterus. Their movement is
aided by uterine contractions.
Sperm cells become even more active when they begin to interact with the
fertilizing layer of an egg cell. They swim faster and their tail movements
become more forceful and erratic. This behavior is called "hyper activation."
Recent studies have shown that sudden increase in calcium levels cause the hyper
activation of tail of sperms.
Fusion of sperm and egg:
The egg has two protective barriers. The first barrier is made of cumulus cells
embedded in gel like material. These cells develop in ovary along with egg to
support its growth. The gel like material is made up of hyaluronic acid. The
second barrier is made up of glycoproteins. These glycoproteins form a thick
shell around oocyte (cell of egg). The hyperactivity of sperm helps to break
these barriers. The head of the sperm carries enzymes which when released weaken
the barriers of egg. Then a part of cell membrane of sperm fuses with a part of
cell membrane of egg. And then sperm cell sinks into cell of egg. At this point
the tail of sperm falls of. After penetration egg membrane becomes impenetrable
to other sperms to prevent further fertilization.
Through semen analysis the ratio of actively motile sperms to total number of
sperms is evaluated. This ratio indicates the quality of semen which determines
the male fertility. Low motility of sperm leads to subfertility or infertility.
