abstract = {Sperm are attracted by chemical factors that are released
by the egg-a process called chemotaxis. Most of our
knowledge on sperm chemotaxis originates from the study of
marine invertebrates. In recent years, the main features of
the chemotactic signaling pathway and the swimming behavior
evoked by chemoattractants have been elucidated in sea
urchins. In contrast, our understanding of mammalian sperm
chemotaxis is still rudimentary and subject to an ongoing
debate. In this review, we raise new questions and discuss
current concepts of sperm chemotaxis. Finally, we highlight
commonalities and differences of sensory signaling in sperm,
photoreceptors, and olfactory neurons.},
