This study investigates the effect of supplementing bovine follicular fluids (FF) to rabbit sperm motility, acrosome reaction and transaminases activities. Ovarian FF were collected from 46 pairs of bovine ovaries. Normal follicles were classified, according to their diameters, into small (SFF, ≤4 mm), medium (MFF,>4-8 mm), large (LFF,> 8 mm) and cystic (CSTFF,>20 mm). Rabbit semen was collecte...

However, the molecular mechanisms that drive follicular growth are not completely understood. Ovarian follicular cysts are one of the most common causes of reproductive failure in dairy cattle.
