Effect of ovulation and sperm motility on the migration of rabbit spermatozoa to the site of fertilization.

Few spermatozoa were present in the ampullae of females 12 h after intravaginal artificial insemination (AI) when there was no ovulation-inducing stimulus. When ovulation was induced, sperm distributions in the female tract 12 h after AI did not differ from those observed 12 h after natural mating. The number of spermatozoa in the oviductal isthmus was similar in all 3 groups as was the percentage of isthmic spermatozoa exhibiting 'activated' motility. When fertile mating was delayed for 8 or 12 h after coitus with a vasectomized male (i.e. 2 h before or after ovulation), spermatozoa were not present in the ampulla 4 h later. The numbers of spermatozoa recovered from the cranial isthmus after delayed matings and 12 h after natural matings did not differ, but after delayed matings the motility of isthmic spermatozoa was non-progressive or poorly progressive and none exhibited 'activated' motility. Flagellar activity of isthmic spermatozoa recovered 4 h after delayed matings and after natural matings was similarly depressed. These observations indicate that sperm ascent to the tubal ampulla in the sustained phase of transport, though enhanced by ovulation, must also depend on changes in flagellar activity and a specific pattern of motility, both of which appear only after spermatozoa have resided for more than 4 h in the female tract.
