Estrogen suppresses melatonin-enhanced hyperactivation of hamster spermatozoa
Hamster sperm hyperactivation is enhanced by progesterone, and this progesterone-enhanced hyperactivation is suppressed by 17β-estradiol (17βE2) and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Although it has been indicated that melatonin also enhances hyperactivation, it is unknown whether melatonin-enhanced hyperactivation is also suppressed by 17βE2 and GABA. In the present study, melatonin-enhanced hyperac...
متن کاملControl of hyperactivation in sperm.
BACKGROUND Sperm hyperactivation is critical to fertilization, because it is required for penetration of the zona pellucida. Hyperactivation may also facilitate release of sperm from the oviductal storage reservoir and may propel sperm through mucus in the oviductal lumen and the matrix of the cumulus oophorus. Hyperactivation is characterized by high amplitude, asymmetrical flagellar bending. ...
متن کاملγ-Aminobutyric acid suppresses enhancement of hamster sperm hyperactivation by 5-hydroxytryptamine
Sperm hyperactivation is regulated by hormones present in the oviduct. In hamsters, 5-hydroxytryptamine (5HT) enhances hyperactivation associated with the 5HT2 receptor and 5HT4 receptor, while 17β-estradiol (E2) and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) suppress the association of the estrogen receptor and GABAA receptor, respectively. In the present study, we examined the regulatory interactions among 5...
متن کاملSuppression of Progesterone-enhanced Hyperactivation in Hamster Spermatozoa by γ-aminobutyric Acid
It has been recently shown that mammalian spermatozoa were hyperactivated by steroids, amines and amino acids. In the present study, we investigated whether hyperactivation of hamster sperm is regulated by progesterone (P) and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Although sperm hyperactivation was enhanced by P, GABA significantly suppressed P-enhanced hyperactivation in a dose-dependent manner. Suppres...
متن کاملIntracellular calcium increases with hyperactivation in intact, moving hamster sperm and oscillates with the flagellar beat cycle.
At some time before fertilization, mammalian sperm undergo a change in movement pattern, termed hyperactivation. There is evidence that hyperactivation offers an advantage to sperm for detaching from the oviductal mucosa, for penetrating viscoelastic substances in the oviduct, and for penetrating the zona pellucida. Hyperactivation is known to require extracellular calcium, but little else is k...
