Inhibition of forward and reverse transport of Ca2+ via Na+/Ca2+ exchangers (NCX) prevents sperm capacitation
Inhibition of outflux and influx of Ca<sup>2+</sup> triggered similar effects, thus indicating that both forward and reverse Ca<sup>2+</sup> transport through NCX exchangers are essential for sperm capacitation.
