متن کاملPig zona pellucida 2 (pZP2) protein does not participate in zona pellucida formation in transgenic mice.
The zona pellucida, an extracellular matrix surrounding mammalian oocytes, is composed of three or four glycoproteins. It is well known that the zona pellucida plays several critical roles during fertilization, but there is little knowledge about its formation. The purpose of this study is to examine whether a pig zona pellucida glycoprotein 2 (pZP2) would assemble with mouse zona pellucida. A ...
متن کاملApplication of Specific Monoclonal Antibodies for Characterization of Leishmania spp. Promastigotes Using Indirect Immunofluorescent and Immunoperoxidase Tests
Background: Different methods have been used for characterization of Leishmania promastigotes. Monoclonal antibodies are useful in characterization of Leishmania spp . both amastogotes and promastigotes. Objective: Comparing the characterization of Leishmania spp. promastigotes with immunoperoxidase test (Avidin-Biotin) techniques and an indirect immunofluorescent assay (IFA). Methods: Ap...
متن کاملInhibition of goat sperm-zona binding by monoclonal antibodies to a glycoprotein family (ZP4) of porcine zona pellucida
The zona pellucida (ZP) in a majority of species consists of three antigenic families with wide inter species cross reactivity. The glocoproteins of heat solubilized goat zona pellucida (gZP) were isolated into three families by high performance liquid chromatography on a gel ®ltration column. Their molecular identities were 180, 95 and 75 kDa for gZP1, gZP2 and gZP3 respectively. However under...
متن کاملSolid-phase antigen immunoassay for the detection of anti-zona pellucida-antibodies in clinically defined sera.
A new solid-phase antigen immunoassay was developed for the detection of anti-zona pellucida-antibodies. The assay was validated in a double blind study with clinically defined sera. The new assay is easy to perform and large numbers of sera can be processed in one day. The antigen can be prepared in advance and stored until use. This represents an advantage over other methods, such as immunofl...
