P-17: Effect of Calcium Ionophore A23187 on Sperm Hyper-Active Motility Patterns
Background The role of calcium in physiological phenomenona such as sperm acrosome reaction and hyper-activation has been well known. Calcium ionophore A23187 is routinely used for induction of acrosome reaction in mammalians sperm. Therefore, we decided to evaluate the effect of calcium ionophore A23187 on the sperm hyper-active motility patterns. MaterialsAndMethods Ten semen samples from ind...
متن کاملParthenogenetic Activation of Porcine Oocytes by Calcium Ionophore A23187
This study was designated to clarify the influence of activation of porcine matured oocytes by calcium ionophore on in vitro development of the parthenotes. The follicular oocytes were matured, activated and cultured in North Carolina State University-23 (NCSU-23) medium supplemented with 10% porcine follicular fluid (pFF). The in vitro-matured oocytes were exposed to calcium ionophore at conce...
متن کاملCalcium dependence of ionophore A23187-induced lymphocyte cytotoxicity.
Concentrations of the divalent cation ionophore, A23187, optimal for the transformation of human and pig lymphocytes, were cytotoxic to lymphocytes from rats and mice. The biochemical effects associated with A23187-induced cytolysis in rat thymocytes included inhibition of [3H]uridine uptake and incorporation into macromolecules and stimulation of [14C]-alpha-aminoisobutyric acid uptake. The bi...
متن کاملEffects of calcium ionophore on vitamin E-deficient rat muscle.
Damage to skeletal muscles may be mediated via free radicals or intracellular calcium overload. To look for inter-relationships between these pathways we have examined the effect of intracellular Ca overload on muscles from rats fed on either a vitamin E-deficient or vitamin E-sufficient diet and assessed the non-enzymic lipid peroxidation in these muscles by examining the production of thiobar...
متن کاملCalcium-dependent shortening of fibroblasts induced by the ionophore, A23187.
Attached, spread, chick heart fibroblasts were induced to shorten by treatment with the ionophore, A23187. The shortening resulted from the retraction of the leading lamellae and other major cell processes. The response was dependent on external calcium with a threshold close to, and a maximal effect at, physiological concentrations. The shortening was also induced in Colcemid-treated cells and...
