Prostaglandins induce calcium influx in human spermatozoa.
Progesterone, prostaglandin and follicular fluid are reported to enhance the acrosome reaction through the influx of extracellular calcium into the cytoplasm of human spermatozoa. Prostaglandins are present within the male reproductive tract, and high concentrations of prostaglandins exist in seminal fluid. In order to investigate the mechanisms by which prostaglandins enhance the acrosome reac...
متن کاملApoptosis and necrosis in human ejaculated spermatozoa.
BACKGROUND Features of both apoptosis and necrosis have been reported in ejaculated human spermatozoa. This study examines the relative contribution of these two modes of cell death to the demise of these terminally differentiated cells. METHODS Sperm fractions were prepared from aliquots of semen samples from young normozoospermic donors by simple washing from seminal plasma, by discontinuou...
متن کاملApoptosis and DNA damage in human spermatozoa.
DNA damage is frequently encountered in spermatozoa of subfertile males and is correlated with a range of adverse clinical outcomes including impaired fertilization, disrupted preimplantation embryonic development, increased rates of miscarriage and an enhanced risk of disease in the progeny. The etiology of DNA fragmentation in human spermatozoa is closely correlated with the appearance of oxi...
متن کاملImpact of Cryopreservation Process on Viability, Nitric Oxide and DNA Apoptosis in Fertile Human Spermatozoa
Introduction: Infertility is a common phenomenon in modern societies. Today, use of assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) for treatment of infertility is common, and cryopreservation is one of these technologies. Cryopreservation has impact on the function and percentage of fertility of human sperm. In this study, motility, viability, nitric oxide, and DNA apoptosis were assessed before and...
متن کاملMobile phone radiation does not induce pro-apoptosis effects in human spermatozoa.
Abstract Recent reports suggest that mobile phone radiation may diminish male fertility. However, the effects of this radiation on human spermatozoa are largely unknown. The present study examined effects of the radiation on induction of apoptosis-related properties in human spermatozoa. Ejaculated, density-purified, highly motile human spermatozoa were exposed to mobile phone radiation at spec...
