Number of oviductal sperm and capacitation in wild-type and Cftr mutant females
| Mouse type (no. of mice) | Total no. of sperm (average per oviduct) | Capacitation (n = 200 per mouse) (%) |
|---|---|---|
| Wild type (3) | 1536 ± 291 | 100 |
| ΔF508 (3) | 142 ± 105a | 100 |
| S489X (3) | 132 ± 133a | 100 |
| Both mutations (6) | 137 ± 114a | 100 |
P < 0.001 vs. wild type.
