Capacitation of Bovine Sperm by Heparin1

J.J. Parrish, J.J. Parrish, Martin A. Winer et al. · 1 Jun 1988

Capacitation of bovine sperm was evaluated by determining the ability of sperm to fertilize bovine oocytes in vitro and to undergo an acrosome reaction upon exposure to lysophosphatidylcholine (LC). Incubation of sperm with heparin (10 micrograms/ml) increased the percentage of oocytes fertilized, but this required exposing sperm to heparin for at least 4 h before…

Generation of Reactive Oxygen Species, Lipid Peroxidation, and Human Sperm Function

R. John Aitken, J. S. Clarkson, Simon Fishel · 1 Jul 1989

Recent studies have demonstrated that human spermatozoa are capable of generating reactive oxygen species and that this activity is significantly accelerated in cases of defective sperm function. In view of the pivotal role played by lipid peroxidation in mediating free radical damage to cells, we have examined the relationships between reactive oxygen species production, lipid…

Endovascular Trophoblast Invasion: Implications for the Pathogenesis of Intrauterine Growth Retardation and Preeclampsia

Peter Kaufmann, Simon Black, Berthold Huppertz · 1 Jul 2003

Maternal uteroplacental blood flow increases during pregnancy. Altered uteroplacental blood flow is a core predictor of abnormal pregnancy. Normally, the uteroplacental arteries are invaded by endovascular trophoblast and remodeled into dilated, inelastic tubes without maternal vasomotor control. Disturbed remodeling is associated with maintenance of high uteroplacental vascular resistance and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and preeclampsia.…

Capacitation of Rabbit Spermatozoa in vitro

Benjamin G. Brackett, Gene Oliphant · 1 Mar 1975

This research was carried out to define in vitro conditions that would enable ejaculated rabbit sperm to fertilize ova in vitro. During 20 min exposure of sperm cells to defined media of increasing NaCl concentrations, progressive removal or alteration of sperm surface seminal plasma antigenic components was initiated and completed as reflected by an immunological…

The Blood-Testis Barrier in the Rat and the Physiological Compartmentation of the Seminiferous Epithelium1

Martin Dym, Don W. Fawcett · 1 Dec 1970

Previous work has indicated that the contractile “myoid cells” surrounding the seminiferous tubules serve as a barrier to the penetration of substances into the germinal epithelium. In the present study, the nature of the junctions separating myoid cells was investigated with en bloc uranyl acetate staining and with lanthanum nitrate, a small electron-opaque tracer useful…
