| sperm motility | Ability of the spermatozoon to move by flagellate swimming. (12 Dec 1998) |

| autocrine motility factor | A member of the class of cytokines secreted by tumour cells. It elicits increases in cell motility and phosphoinositide metabolism in the secreting or producing cell via a pertussis toxin-sensitive g-protein signal transduction pathway. The factor has also been used as a marker for bladder cancer. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| ciliary motility disorders | Disorders characterised by abnormal ciliary movement in the nose, paranasal sinuses, respiratory tract, and spermatozoa. Electron microscopy of the cilia shows that dynein arms are missing. The disorders manifest as kartagener triad (kartagener's syndrome), chronic respiratory disorders, chronic sinusitis, and/or chronic otitis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| motility | <biology> The ability to move spontaneously. (18 Nov 1997) |
| motility test | A test based on microscopic observation or on the spread of growth in soft agar, used to determine if a microorganism is motile. (05 Mar 2000) |
| motility test medium | A culture medium with a concentration of agar that produces a less solid consistency than usual and allows motile organisms to grow away from the line of inoculation; used to differentiate species of bacteria. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ocular motility disorders | Disorders of eye movement resulting from malfunction of the sensory-motor mechanism of the eye which leads to faulty alignment of the eyes and/or visual impairment. (12 Dec 1998) |
| oesophageal motility disorders | Disorders affecting the motor function of the upper or lower oesophageal sphincters, the oesophageal body, or a combination of these parts. The failure of the sphincters to maintain a tonic pressure may result in the impeding of the passage of food, regurgitation of food, or reflux of gastric acid into the oesophagus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sperm | A reproductive cell produced by the male of an animal species which, when united with an egg (of the same species), results in conception and the development of an embryo. (09 Oct 1997) |
| sperm agglutination | Agglutination of spermatozoa. (05 Mar 2000) Previous: Spens, Thomas, spent, speract, sperling, sperm, spermaceti, spermacytic seminomaNext: sperm agglutination, spermalist, spermaphore, spermary, sperm-astersperm agglutination Agglutination of spermatozoa by antibodies or autoantibodies. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sperm-aster | Cytocentrum with astral rays in the cytoplasm of an inseminated ovum; it is brought in by the penetrating spermatozoon and evolves into the mitotic spindle of the first cleavage division. Origin: sperm + G. Aster, a star (aster) (05 Mar 2000) |
| sperm bank | A facility where sperm are kept frozen in liquid nitrogen for later use in artificial insemination. (09 Oct 1997) |
| sperm banking | <procedure> The freezing of sperm for future use. This procedure can allow men to father children after loss of fertility, as in the case following chemotherapy for cancer. (12 May 1997) |
| sperm banks | Centres for acquiring and storing semen. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sperm capacitation | The process by which a spermatozoon becomes capable of fertilizing an ovum after it reaches the ampullary portion of the uterine tube. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sperm cell | Mature sperm cell (male gamete). (18 Nov 1997) |
