Effect of genistein on acrosome reaction and zona pellucida binding independent of protein tyrosine kinase inhibition in bull

Aim： To investigate if the phytoestrogen, genistein, affects essential functions of cryopreserved bovine spermatozoa. Methods： The effect of genistein upon motility was assessed by computer-assisted motion analysis. Hemizona assay was performed to detect the ability of spermatozoa binding to the zona pellucida. The inducibility of the acrosome reaction using progesterone and ZP3-6 peptide was analysed by fluorescein-conjugated Pisum sativum agglutinin （FITC-PSA）/Hoechst 33258 double staining. Capacitation after incubation with genistein was assessed by the chlortetracycline （CTC） assay. Immunoblots showed the pattern of protein tyrosine phosphorylation of cryopreserved bovine spermatozoa. Results： Immunodetection of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins showed that genistein did not affect tyrosine phosphorylation in cryopreserved bovine spermatozoa. However, genistein significantly reduced the progesterone- and ZP3-6 peptide-mediated induction of the acrosome reaction and led to a dose-dependent inhibition of sperm-zona pellucida binding; while sperm motility and capacitation were not affected by this phytoestrogen, as indicated by computer-assisted sperm motion analysis and the CTC assay, respectively. Conclusion： Our results suggest that in cryopreserved bovine spermatozoa, genistein affects a protein tyrosine phosphorylation-independent signal transduction pathway that is involved in sperm capacitation, the acrosome reaction and sperm-zona pellucida binding.     

Differential activities of malate and isocitrate NAD(P)-dependent dehydrogenases are involved in the induction of capacitation and acrosome reaction in cryopreserved bovine spermatozoa

Sperm catabolic processes produce energy for capacitation and acrosome reaction induction required for oocyte fertilization. The aim was to determine metabolic enzymes' activities and their participation in the supply of energy and generation of the redox state to acquire fertilizing capacity. Capacitation was induced with heparin and quercetin, and the acrosome reaction with progesterone. Enzymatic activities were determined spectrophotometrically. The chlortetracycline and differential-interferential contrast microscopy/tryptan blue techniques were used to evaluate capacitation and acrosome reaction, acrosomal integrity and sperm viability respectively. A 2 : 1 and 3 : 1 ratio were obtained for isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-NADP/NAD and malate dehydrogenase (MDH)-NADP/NAD activities respectively. MDH-NADP activity remained constant with different treatments, unlike MDH-NAD activity, which diminished with both capacitation inducers and in acrosome-reacted spermatozoa previously treated with heparin (P < 0.05). IDH-NADP decreased its activity 50% in spermatozoa capacitated with heparin and acrosome reacted with progesterone (P < 0.05). Capacitation and acrosome reaction processes induced with heparin and progesterone, respectively, involve a differential oxidative metabolism, with the participation of MDH-NAD(P) and IDH-NAD(P) enzymes, whose activities would be linked to the malate-aspartate, lactate-pyruvate and isocitrate cytosolic-mitochondrial shuttles. These enzymes play a major role in supplying reduction equivalents and/or energy required for capacitation and acrosome reaction in cryopreserved bovine spermatozoa.     

精子胞膜脂质及其在受精中的作用

通过受精来完成精子与卵子融合并产生二倍体合子(受精卵)是有性生殖的标志,在这一过程中精子胞膜脂质发挥了重要作用。精子在成熟过程中,由于细胞器的丢失和DNA转录的终止,精子最终停止合成膜脂质、蛋白质,并且囊泡转运也终止。然而精子胞膜脂质成分却仍发生着复杂变化,并籍此在精子获能、与卵子透明带结合、顶体反应以及精子与卵子膜融合等过程中均起着重要作用。本文就精子膜脂质的组成、结构特点、过氧化作用、代谢及其在受精中的作用进行综述。     

The cyclic GMP-specific phosphodiesterase inhibitor, sildenafil, stimulates human sperm motility and capacitation but not acrosome reaction

Capacitation is the series of transformations that spermatozoa undergo in the female genital tract in order to bind to the zona pellucida, initiate the acrosome reaction, and fertilize an egg. Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) plays an important role in this process and its levels are regulated by 2 key enzymes, adenylyl cyclase and cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE), the latter being involved in cAMP degradation. Evidence was provided for the involvement of PDE in sperm motility and capacitation. Of the 10 gene families of PDE that exist in mammalian tissues, the calcium-calmodulin-dependent (type 1) and the cAMP-specific (type 4) have been found in human spermatozoa. Using sildenafil, we investigated a highly potent cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)-specific PDE (type 5) inhibitor and whether this PDE is present in human spermatozoa and is involved in sperm functions. Sildenafil inhibited PDE activity of Percoll-washed spermatozoa with an IC50 of 97+/-3 and 33+/-3 microM when cAMP and cGMP, respectively, were used as substrates. Because the IC50 of sildenafil obtained for PDE type 5 is much lower (2 to 6 nM) than that obtained with sperm PDE, the data suggest that PDE type 5 represents only a small fraction of the whole PDE activity of spermatozoa. Sildenafil causes dose-dependent increases in sperm cAMP levels and capacitation, which are associated with an increase in the levels of tyrosine phosphorylation of 2 fibrous sheath proteins (p105/81). Sperm velocity, amplitude of lateral head displacement, and hyperactivation were increased at 30-180 minutes. Sildenafil did not trigger the acrosome reaction in capacitated spermatozoa. These results suggest that under our experimental conditions, sildenafil triggers human sperm motility and capacitation, probably via its inhibitory action on PDE activity other than type 5 with a resultant rise in cAMP levels.     

Sperm—oocyte interaction: studies on the kinetics of zona pellucida binding and acrosome reaction of human spermatozoa

Summary. Successful sperm-oocyte interaction depends, among other things, on sperm capacitation, which is defined by acrosomal and motility alterations. In the study described here the authors evaluated different aspects of this gamete interaction in humans. Specifically, the authors studied (1) the relationship between the number of spermatozoa bound to the zona pellucida and sperm concentration and incubation period, (2) the capacitation status and kinetics of acrosome reaction among the zona-bound spermatozoa, and (3) the effect of human follicular fluid on the zona-binding potential and acrosome status of spermatozoa from different men. The results indicated a concentration of 10⁷ cells ml⁻¹ after 15 min of coincubation to be the optimum for zona binding. The number of sperm bound after 0, 3 and 5 h of incubation was the same. In addition, spermatozoa incubated for 3 or 5 h underwent the acrosome reaction (range 9–43%) on the zona surface within 15 min of binding. The maximum percentage of acrosome-reacted spermatozoa was reached after 60 min of binding. Follicular fluid affected the sperm populations selectively, since it did not influence zona binding capacity in all cases. The data enhances the authors' understanding of critical events occurring before fertilization.     

Participation of membrane adenylyl cyclase in heparin‐induced capacitation in cryopreserved bovine spermatozoa

The aim of this work was to study the participation of membrane adenylyl cyclase in heparin‐induced capacitation in cryopreserved bovine spermatozoa. Sperm suspensions were incubated in Tyrode's albumin lactate pyruvate medium in the presence of heparin (10 IU ml^?1) or forskolin (1–75 μm ), a well‐known membrane adenylyl cyclase activator. The participation of membrane adenylyl cyclase was confirmed using a specific inhibitor, 2′,5′‐dideoxyadenosine (6–25 μm ). Spermatozoa capacitated with forskolin (25 μm ) were incubated with bovine follicular fluid to evaluate their ability to undergo acrosome reaction. Capacitation percentages were determined by the fluorescence technique with chlortetracycline, and true acrosome reaction was determined by trypan blue and differential interferential contrast. The forskolin concentrations employed had no effect on progressive motility or sperm viability. Capacitation values induced by 25‐μm forskolin treatment (27.80 ± 2.59%) were significantly higher respect to the control (4.80 ± 1.30%). The inhibitor 2′,5′‐dideoxyadenosine prevented forskolin‐induced capacitation and significantly diminished capacitation induced by heparin. Follicular fluid induced physiological acrosome reaction in spermatozoa previously capacitated with 25‐μm forskolin (P < 0.05). Forskolin acts as a capacitation inducer and involves the participation of membrane adenylyl cyclase as part of the intracellular mechanisms that lead to capacitation in cryopreserved bovine spermatozoa.     

Effect of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) and angiotensins on human sperm functions

Summary.  The presence of components of the renin angiotensin system (RAS) and specific receptors of angiotensin II in the female and male reproductive tract supports the hypothesis that reproductive functions may be controlled by RAS. Therefore, the present study investigated the influence of ACE and angiotensins on sperm functions and the sperm–egg interaction.
The experiments did not indicate direct effects of ACE on the capacitation process or acrosome reaction. Release of ACE from human spermatozoa during capacitation was not related to their ability to undergo acrosome reaction after stimulation with ionophore. Therefore, ACE release does not seem to be a useful clinical marker for human sperm capacitation. However, decreased binding of human spermatozoa to the oolemma of zona-free hamster oocytes after inhibition of ACE by captopril indicates that kininase II is involved in sperm–egg interactions. In contrast to other studies, incubation with captopril had no influence on sperm binding to the zona pellucida. Because effects of ACE on sperm–egg interactions but not on capacitation or acrosome reaction were observed, several experiments were performed to study the influence of substrates and products on the acrosome reaction. Angiotensin II induced the acrosome reaction dose-dependently, whereas angiotensin I had no effect on the acrosome reaction. The effect of angiotensin II on acrosome reaction seems to be calcium-dependent and mediated by protein kinases. Since a specific type 2 angiotensin II receptor inhibits the acrosome reaction induced by angiotensin II, this subtype of receptors may be present at the surface of sperm heads. Another clue for the presence of type 2 receptors on human spermatozoa is the finding that pertussis toxin did not inhibit the angiotensin II induced acrosome reaction. In contrast to type 1 angiotensin II receptors, type 2 receptors are known to be G-protein independent.     

Round-Headed Spermatozoa: A Model to study the Role of the Acrosome in early events of Gamete Interaction: Rundkopfspermatozoen: Ein Modell zum Studium der Rolle des Akrosoms

Gamete interactions in mouse involves at least two steps: the first is the interaction of a spermatozoa receptor located in the plasma membrane and ZP3, a zona pellucida (ZP) glycoprotein. ZP3 also can induce the acrosome reaction, making possible the second step: a closer interaction between ZP2 and an inner acrosomal membrane receptor. Our aim was to study gamete interaction in round-headed spermatozoa to determine at which functional level fertility is impaired. These spermatozoa are predominant in some infertile male and are characterized by the absence of acrosome; they also present an abnormal pattern of chromatin condensation. Human ZP and zona free hamster oocytes were used to study gamete interaction. No binding to ZP was observed either with light or electron microscopy. Our findings suggest that the presence of the acrosome could be necessary for the sorting and right organization of plasma membrane proteins. Round-headed spermatozoa could also present a general alteration of membrane protein synthesis. The lack of fusion with zona-free hamster oocytes may be explained by an altered reorganization of plasma membrane proteins in the post acrosomal region as a result of the absence of the acrosome reaction in round headed spermatozoa.     

The influence of homogenous zona pellucida on human spermatozoa hyperactivation, acrosome reaction and zona binding

The study aimed to evaluate the changes in sperm motion characteristics and the occurrence of hyperactivation among sperm populations after exposure to human zona pellucida. Motile spermatozoa samples were used to evaluate the sperm-zona binding capacity, zona-induced acrosome reaction and changes in sperm motion characteristics. Sperm motion characteristic changes studied included straight line velocity, curvilinear velocity, amplitude of lateral head displacement, straightness and beat cross frequency. Recordings were performed on semen immediately after liquefaction, 3 h capacitation and after exposure to solubilised human zona pellucida. The semen samples were divided into morphology categories, namely six (16 +/- 1.4% normal forms, normal patterns), 31 (8 +/- 1.7% normal forms, G-pattern) and 27 (3 +/- 1.3% normal forms, P-pattern). The Hemizona Indices for the three morphology groups namely normal, G-patterns and P-patterns, were 77 +/- 6%, 61 +/- 5% and 41 +/- 5% respectively (P 相似文献   

Current concepts of molecular events during bovine and porcine spermatozoa capacitation

Spermatozoa are required to undergo the processes of capacitation before they obtain fertilizing ability. The molecular changes of capacitation are still not fully understood. However, it is accepted that capacitation is a sequential process involving numerous physiological changes including destabilization of the plasma membrane, alterations of intracellular ion concentrations and membrane potential, and protein phosphorylation. There are no known morphological changes that occur to the spermatozoon during capacitation. The purpose of this review is to summarize current evidence on the molecular aspects of capacitation both in vivo and in vitro in bovine and porcine spermatozoa. For the purpose of this review, the process of sperm capacitation will encompass maturational events that occur following ejaculation up to binding to the zona pellucida, that triggers acrosomal exocytosis and initiates fertilization.     

Electron microscopic evidence on the acrosomal status of bound sperm and their penetration into human hemizonae pellucida after storage in a buffered salt solution.

The hemizona assay (HZA) was developed to evaluate sperm binding potential using microbisected human zona pellucida. In this study, eight human oocytes stored in a buffered salt solution for 60 days were bisected into two identical hemispheres (hemizonae) and coincubated with the spermatozoa from a fertile man. All evaluated spermatozoa were tightly bound to the outer surface or had begun penetration into the zona pellucida. The hemizonae with bound spermatozoa were prepared and fixed for transmission electron microscopy (TEM) using standard techniques. Among the 108 sperm bound to the zone we were able to evaluate 25 by TEM. Twenty (80%) of the zona bound spermatozoa were partially or completely acrosome reacted, while six (20%) of the zona bound sperm had intact acrosomes. Acrosome intact, partially acrosome reacted and completely reacted spermatozoa were observed within the zona. Penetration pathways or tunnels were seen within the zona matrix. The results illustrate, that typically spermatozoa tightly bound the human zona pellucida show induction of the acrosome reaction. Importantly, following storage of human eggs in salt solution (buffered to 7.4), the zona pellucida retain their biological and functional characteristics for at least 90 days.     

Capacitated and acrosome reacted spermatozoa of goat (Capra indicus): a fluorescence and electron microscopic study

Summary. Plasma membrane alterations accompanying in vitro capacitation and acrosome reaction of goat spermatozoa were studied using lectin labelling, scanning electron microscopy, and freeze-fracture methods. Fluorescein isothi-ocyanate linked lectins namely; Canavalia ensiformis (ConA), Maclura pomifera (MPA), Arachis hypogaea (PNA), Glycine max (SBA) and Triticum vulgaris (WGA) agglutinin were used to examine the distribution of surface carbohydrates during these two events. The head and the sperm tail reveal altered lectin labelling features after capacitation and acrosome reaction. After capacitation the surface coat components for MPA, SBA, and WGA are shed from the spermatozoon head. ConA receptors on the head are retained after capacitation but are partially shed in the acrosome reacted spermatozoa. SBA receptor sites appear on the sperm tail of the capacitated spermatozoa. Unusual morphological changes attending capacitation involve the sperm tail-end which develops a novel entity, which we have termed 'spatula'. The 'spatula' shows strong binding with ConA and WGA only. In the acrosome reacted spermatozoa the spatulated tail-end unwinds with a concomitant loss of lectin labelling. Highly ordered membrane particles, 'ladders' of the middle piece of the epididymal sperm tail, disappear and IMP clearings appear on the middle piece and in the spatulated ends of the capacitated spermatozoa. But in the acrosome reacted sperm IMPs reappear and are randomly disposed on the middle-piece and are clustered in small patches on the principal-piece. IMP free areas appear on the plasma membrane covering the acrosome and the outer acrosomal membrane (OAM) of the capacitated spermatozoa. The plasma membrane and OAM fuse at multiple foci and appear as acrosomal 'ghosts' which remain associated with the sperm head even after acrosome reaction.     

Ion channels, phosphorylation and mammalian sperm capacitation

Sexually reproducing animals require an orchestrated communication between spermatozoa and the egg to generate a new individual. Capacitation, a maturational complex phenomenon that occurs in the female reproductive tract, renders spermatozoa capable of binding and fusing with the oocyte, and it is a requirement for mammalian fertilization. Capacitation encompasses plasma membrane reorganization, ion permeability regulation, cholesterol loss and changes in the phosphorylation state of many proteins. Novel tools to study sperm ion channels, image intracellular ionic changes and proteins with better spatial and temporal resolution, are unraveling how modifications in sperm ion transport and phosphorylation states lead to capacitation. Recent evidence indicates that two parallel pathways regulate phosphorylation events leading to capacitation, one of them requiring activation of protein kinase A and the second one involving inactivation of ser/thr phosphatases. This review examines the involvement of ion transporters and phosphorylation signaling processes needed for spermatozoa to achieve capacitation. Understanding the molecular mechanisms leading to fertilization is central for societies to deal with rising male infertility rates, to develop safe male gamete-based contraceptives and to preserve biodiversity through better assisted fertilization strategies.

The zona pellucida 'receptors' ZP1, ZP2 and ZP3.

The male component that is necessary for successful reproduction depends on a large variety of biological processes working in concert. The sperm-egg interaction occurs through complementary molecules and is an obligatory process for successful fertilization. However, this complex phenomenon and its molecular mechanisms remain to be fully understood. The oocyte is protected by the zona pellucida, a network of various proteins which encloses the oocyte. Depending on the species, the zona pellucida consists of different glycoproteins that are proposed to function as 'receptors' for spermatozoa. In the mouse, ZP1 is the homodimeric filament crosslinker, held together by intermolecular disulphides. ZP2 is the 'secondary receptor', which is cleaved by egg proteases after egg activation. The mouse ZP3 protein appears to be the 'primary receptor', which is responsible for species-specific binding of spermatozoa to the oocyte and the induction of the acrosome reaction. To localize zona pellucida protein and to evaluate the function of ZP2 and ZP3, polyclonal antisera were raised against synthetic ZP2 or ZP3 peptides which are specific for human or for mouse zona pellucida proteins. It could be demonstrated that anti-synthetic peptide antisera detected their respective zona pellucida proteins in immunoblots, ovary sections and native hemizonae pellucidae. Functional assays with anti-ZP3 synthetic peptide antibodies revealed that the antisera did not inhibit sperm-zona pellucida binding, whereas one of the antisera against synthetic ZP2 peptides significantly inhibited binding of spermatozoa to the zona pellucida.     

The meaning of sperm capacitation. A historical perspective

It should be recalled that sperm capacitation was originally defined in 1952 as some physiological changes of the spermatozoa in the female genital tract before they are capable of penetrating and fertilizing the eggs. It was found further that capacitation can be achieved outside the female tract, first in the presence of biological fluids, and then in the absence of biological fluids. Later on it was found that capacitated rabbit uterine spermatozoa still have acrosome and that the acrosome reaction of rabbit spermatozoa occurred in contact with eggs in the oviduct. Thus, several authors separated acrosome reaction from capacitation and considered capacitation as a preparation for the acrosome reaction, even though the titles of their articles still implied that capacitation included acrosome reaction. During the past 30 years we have found many membrane changes on the molecular and immunological level in spermatozoa that prepare them for physiological changes such as "hyperactivation," and morphological changes such as "the acrosome reaction." These events lead to more vigorous motility and to the release of various enzymes for the penetration of the egg. Undoubtedly, further study will reveal more molecular, physiological, and morphological changes in the mammalian spermatozoa before they are capable of fertilization. There are definite changes before hyperactivation and acrosome reaction, but these changes are parts of capacitation, if we prefer to keep its original meaning. It is proposed here that in order to save further confusion, capacitation of spermatozoa should be defined as originally proposed, that is, to include all the events that lead to the development of the capacity of mammalian spermatozoa to penetrate eggs.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

In vitro tests for essential sperm functions using the phyto-oestrogen genistein as a test substance

Sperm motility, binding of spermatozoa to the zona pellucida and induction of the acrosome reaction are prerequisites for successful oocyte fertilization. Examination of the physiological and nonphysiological effects of particular compounds on sperm functions requires high-quality in vitro test systems. In this short methodological overview, a reliable combined in vitro test system with bovine gametes is described. The purpose of the study was to evaluate whether aliquots of pooled post-thaw spermatozoa are suitable for examination of environmental substances that affect essential sperm functions. The combined test system includes a number of known methods for the assessment of sperm vitality and motion parameters, acrosomal status, inducibility of acrosome reaction and sperm zona pellucida binding. First observations indicate that genistein inhibits the induction of acrosomal exocytosis and binding of spermatozoa to the zona pellucida. Motility parameters and the viability of bovine spermatozoa were not affected by this substance. It is concluded that genistein, a phyto-oestrogen which is abundant in several plants, can be used as a test substance for the evaluation of effects upon essential bovine sperm functions in vitro.     

Pig sperm membrane integrity evaluated by lectin labeling.

Sperm integrity is one of the most carefully examined characteristics for artificial insemination in humans and mammals. Techniques have been developed to assess the sperm plasma membrane integrity. Some of them need a well-trained evaluation for correctness, as is the case of the triple stain technique; others are time-consuming and need special equipment, varying from specially adapted microscopes to computer-based analyzers. The authors report the use of fluorescein-labeled peanut agglutinin plus a fluorescein extender that permits an easy evaluation for pig spermatozoa membrane integrity. Sperm integrity in pigs was evaluated before and after zona pellucida-induced acrosome reaction in capacitated sperm. The sperm acrosome reaction was affected when the zona pellucida was reduced.     

Effect of L-carnitine on motility and acrosome reaction of human spermatozoa

L-carnitine added to the suspension medium decreases the glucose-sustained progressive motility of human spermatozoa. Addition of 20 mM L-carnitine to the capacitation medium causes an inhibition of the occurrence of the acrosome reaction parallel to a viability enhancement and negligible changes of the cellular content of ATP. The cellular efflux of glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase was also inhibited by L-carnitine. A possible role of L-carnitine on membrane stability and metabolism of spermatozoa is briefly discussed.     

碳酸氢盐在小鼠精子体外获能和顶体反应中的作用

检验了精子获能和透明带（ＺＰ）及孕酮激发顶体反应是否需要ＨＣＯ３／ＣＯ２。小鼠精子分别在改良的Ｔｙｒｏｄｅ（ｍＴ－Ｂ２５，含２５ｍｍｏｌ／ＬＨＣＯ３／ＣＯ２）或ｍＴ－Ｈ（无ＨＣＯ３Ｈ／ＣＯ２，含２０ｍｍｏｌ／ＬＨｅｐｅｓ）中预培养９０ｍｉｎ后，以２步７０％和３５％ｐｅｒｃｏｌｌ／ｍＴ－Ｈ洗涤精子，并将精子重新悬浮于ｍＴ－Ｂ２５，ｍＴ－Ｂ１５ｍＴ－ＢＨ和ｍＴ－Ｈ中，用ＩＺＰ／μｌ或１５μｍｏｌ／Ｌ孕酮激发精子顶体反应。在上述ｍＴ诸培养基中，“Ｂ”精子（以ＣＴＣ荧光染色法确定）发生率为６１％～６７％；顶体反应均可达到４１．０士１．４％～４８．０±１．４％。表示精子一旦在ＨＣＯ３／Ｃ０２环境中获能，顶体反应就可在无ＨＣＯ３／ＣＯ２环境中发生。然而，精子预先在ｍＴ－Ｈ中培养，与上述相同方法处理精子，“Ｂ”型精子（２２％～３３％）明显低于前者，对ＺＰ或孕酮的刺激不起反应（１４．Ｏ士３．６～２４．７士０．６％），甚至将精子重新悬浮于ｍＴ－Ｂ２５中也不发生反应（２２．０±９．５％），表示这些精子并未获能。上述结果表明小鼠精子获能依赖于ＨＣＯ３／ＣＯ２，但顶体反应则否。
