Quantification of adenosine triphosphate, adenosine diphosphate, and creatine phosphate in sterlet spermatozoa during maturation.
Sturgeon spermatozoa maturation during their passage through the kidney is a prerequisite for initiation of motility. Samples of sterlet () testicular sperm (TS) were matured in vitro by incubation in seminal fluid (SF) or in SF supplemented with carbonyl cyanide -chlorophenyl hydrazone (CCCP; a respiration uncoupling agent). Sperm was diluted in activation medium (AM) containing 10 m Tris-HCl ...
متن کاملAdenosine triphosphate inhibition in myosin adenosine triphosphate systems.
Factors affecting inhibition of myosin ATPase by ATP, such as concentration of the enzyme, of ATP, and of the divalent metals, calcium and magnesium, have been studied and the results are reported here. Experiments were carried out under conditions in which no known magnesium effects occurred, so that only the effect of calcium on the nucleoside triphosphatase activity of myosin A could be qual...
متن کاملAdenosine Triphosphate Turnover in Humans
The regulation of ATP metabolism by inorganic phosphate (Pi) was examined in five normal volunteers through measurements of ATP degradation during relative Pi depletion and repletion states. Relative Pi depletion was achieved through dietary restriction and phosphate binders, whereas a Pi-repleted state was produced by oral Pi supplementation. ATP was radioactively labeled by the infusion of 18...
متن کاملAdenosine Triphosphate-dependent Taurocholate
Transport systems involved in uptake and biliary secretion of bile salts have been extensively studied in rat liver; however, little is known about these systems in the human liver. In this study, we investigated taurocholate (TC) transport in canalicular and basolateral plasma membrane vesicles isolated from 15 human livers (donor age 6-64 yr). ATP stimulated the uptake ofTC into both canalicu...
متن کاملAdenosine triphosphate production by bovine spermatozoa and its relationship to semen fertilizing ability.
This article's objectives are to investigate the relationship between adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production (oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis) and fertility of bovine spermatozoa, determine the proportion of oxygen consumption devoted to proton leak and that due to nonmitochondrial processes, and discover whether freeze/thawing affects sperm oxygen consumption. Oxygen consumption of b...
