The acquisition of fertile spermatozoa is a long and multi-stage process, beginning with the production of male gametes in the testis. Spermatozoa then undergo two successive maturation steps, first during the epididymal transit and then in the female genital tract during the capacitation process. The post-testicular maturation particularly impacts sperm lipid composition, leading to a higher membrane fluidity considered to be essential for fertilization.The results presented in this work show the importance of epididymal lipid homeostasis for sperm lipid maturation and acquisition of fertilizing ability. At the molecular level, lipid homeostasis is regulated by the LXRs (α and β isoforms), the oxysterol nuclear receptors (NR1H3 and NR1H2, ...
