Pregnancy rates in ewes are markedly low after cervical insemination with frozen-thawed sperm. Sensitivity of ram sperm to freeze-thawing is related to the lipid composition of the membrane, particularly to its low sterol content. Recently, we proved that sterol content of ram sperm can be increased by treatment with methyl-β-cyclodextrin-sterol complexes and we provided mechanistic based evidence on the differential behavior of cholesterol and desmosterol in the ram sperm membrane. In the present study, we evaluated the rol
