Dose dependent effects of naltrindole and DPDPE on total and progressive equine sperm cell motility. Panel A: total equine sperm cell motility affected by different concentrations of DPDPE and naltrindole at T 0, T 30 min, T 90 min and T 180 min. Panel B: progressive equine sperm cell motility affected by different concentrations of DPDPE and naltrindole at T 0, T 30 min, T 90 min and T 180 min. Data are reported as mean ± SD, n = 6. The statistical analysis conducted by Chi square test, after comparison with the control condition at the same time point, was considered significant for p < 0.05. b = p < 0.05 and c = p < 0.001. Nal-4 = 10-4 M naltrindole; Nal-5 = 10-5 M naltrindole; Nal-6 = 10-6 M naltrindole; Nal-7 = 10-7 M naltrindole; DPDPE-5 = 10-5 M DPDPE; DPDPE-6 = 10-6 M DPDPE; DPDPE-7 = 10-7 M DPDPE.
