Human testicular protein TPX1/CRISP-2: localization in spermatozoa, fate after capacitation and relevance for gamete interaction 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Testicular protein Tpx-1, also known as CRISP-2, is a cysteine-rich secretory protein specifically expressed in the male reproductive tract. Since the information available on the human protein is limited to the identification and expression of its gene, in this work we have studied the presence and localization of human Tpx-1 (TPX1) in sperm, its fate after capacitation and acrosome reaction (AR), and its possible involvement in gamete interaction. Indirect immunofluorescence studies revealed the absence of significant staining in live or fixed non-permeabilized sperm, in contrast to a clear labelling in the acrosomal region of permeabilized sperm. These results, together with complementary evidence from protein extraction procedures strongly support that TPX1 would be mainly an intra-acrosomal protein in fresh sperm. After in vitro capacitation and ionophore-induced AR, TPX1 remained associated with the equatorial segment of the acrosome. The lack of differences in the electrophoretic mobility of TPX1 before and after capacitation and AR indicates that the protein would not undergo proteolytical modifications during these processes. The possible involvement of TPX1 in gamete interaction was evaluated by the hamster oocyte penetration test. The presence of anti-TPX1 during gamete co-incubation produced a significant and dose-dependent inhibition in the percentage of penetrated zona-free hamster oocytes without affecting sperm motility, the AR or sperm binding to the oolema. Together, these results indicate that human TPX1 would be a component of the sperm acrosome that remains associated with sperm after capacitation and AR, and is relevant for sperm-oocyte interaction. 相似文献

Effect of sperm-antibodies on acrosome reaction of human sperm used for the hamster egg penetration assay 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The effect of anti-sperm antibodies (ASA) on the rate of acrosome reactions (AR) during "in vitro" capacitation of human sperm used for the hamster egg penetration assay (HEPA) was assessed. Motile sperm suspensions from donors were exposed to several sera and seminal plasma with sperm head-directed ASA, then they were washed and capacitated "in vitro." After capacitation, the proportion of acrosome-reacted viable sperm was assessed by staining with Fluoresceinated Pisum Sativum Agglutinin and supravital stain Hoechst 33258. ASA of any immunoglobulin class did not significantly affect either the AR rate, or the hamster egg penetration rate. In conclusion, interference of ASA on spontaneous AR rate during "in vitro" capacitation can not be advocated as an explanation of the impairment of the interaction of human sperm with egg or its vestments, which have been reported in several studies. 相似文献

An anti-actin monoclonal antibody inhibits the zona pellucida-induced acrosome reaction and hyperactivated motility of human sperm. 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

We report an inhibitory effect of an anti-actin monoclonal antibody (mAb) on the human zona pellucida (ZP)-induced acrosome reaction (AR). Motile sperm were incubated with native human ZP for 2 h in medium containing either the anti-actin mAb, an irrelevant control mAb or cytochalasins B or D (40 micromol/l). Sperm bound to the ZP were recovered and the AR was determined by fluorescein-labelled Pisum Sativum agglutinin. Anti-mouse immunoglobulin G (mIgG) Dynabeads, immunofluorescence and immunogold were used to detect the location of the anti-actin mAb in sperm. The anti-actin mAb significantly inhibited the ZP-induced AR (equivalent to cytochalasins), the ionophore A23187-induced AR and hyperactivation of sperm in medium. After incubation with anti-actin mAb, anti-mIgG beads bound to the head of >50% of sperm recovered after binding to the ZP and 10% of sperm remaining in the medium. The proportion of sperm that bound anti-mIgG beads after recovery from binding to the ZP in the presence of the anti-actin mAb was significantly correlated with the ZP-induced AR in the absence of the antibody. Immunofluorescence and immunogold demonstrated entry of the anti-actin mAb into sperm. This study suggests that the sperm plasma membrane becomes permeable to the anti-actin mAb during capacitation and initiation of the AR. 相似文献

An important role of actin polymerization in the human zona pellucida-induced acrosome reaction. 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The effects of inhibitors of actin polymerization and depolymerization, cytochalasins and phalloidin, on the human zona pellucida (ZP)-induced acrosome reaction (AR) were investigated. Motile spermatozoa, selected by swim-up technique from normozoospermic men, were incubated in medium with or without the actin modulators. Oocytes (four per test) which had failed to fertilize in vitro were added and incubation continued for 2 h. The spermatozoa bound to the ZP were dislodged by repeatedly aspirating the oocytes with a small-bore pipette and the status of the acrosomes was determined by fluorescein-labelled Pisum sativum agglutinin (PSA). Double immunofluorescent staining with PSA and an anti-actin monoclonal antibody illuminated the acrosomal region of acrosome-intact spermatozoa. In calcium ionophore-induced AR spermatozoa, actin staining was confined to the equatorial segment, post-acrosomal region and tail. Cytochalasins B and D significantly inhibited ZP-induced AR in a dose-dependent manner (P < 0.001). Both inhibitors had no effect on the acrosome of spermatozoa in the insemination medium. Cytochalasin B or D (10-40 micromol/l) had no effect on total percentage motile spermatozoa but decreased sperm velocity and hyperactivation. Phalloidin had no effect on the ZP-induced AR or sperm motility. In conclusion, actin polymerization plays an important role in human ZP-induced AR. 相似文献

A model is presented that describes the mechanism of human sperm capacitation and the acrosome reaction. The processes of capacitation and the acrosome reaction are proposed to function in control of the activation/release of acrosomal enzyme(s) involved in sperm penetration through the zona pellucida. During capacitation, the sperm head membranes are biochemically modified, allowing the acrosome reaction to take place when the spermatozoon approaches or reaches the zona pellucida, resulting in the localized activation and release of the appropriate enzyme(s). Further, capacitation is presented as a continuing process that occurs during sperm transport through the female genital tract and is physiologically not completed until the spermatozoon reaches the oocyte (unless the spermatozoa are kept at a particular genital tract site for prolonged periods). The biochemical alterations that occur during capacitation are discussed. It is suggested that extensive modifications in the lipid bilayer structure, e.g. in the cholesterol or phospholipid content, are not part of capacitation because such changes would prematurely destabilize the membranes. Rather, such changes occur during the acrosome reaction. It is also proposed that the human sperm acrosome reaction has many similarities to the somatic cell exocytotic events which occur during the regulated pathway of secretion. One or more oocyte stimuli result in the activation of protein kinases, likely (but not necessarily) via activation of G-protein coupled receptors on the sperm plasma membrane and the formation of second messengers. The kinases phosphorylate and activate proteins, continuing the biochemical cascade that ultimately results in the acrosome reaction. The role of other enzyme systems such as those involved in ion transport, proteolysis, phospholipid metabolism (including that of arachidonic acid) and other metabolic events, is discussed. Calcium ion influx as initiator of the acrosome reaction is reconsidered. The proposed model also takes into consideration the structural events of membrane fusion. 相似文献

The acrosome reaction is an important marker for human sperm function.
Since different laboratory techniques may be used for the detection of this
exocytotic process, the purpose of the present study was to compare three
common markers [Pisum sativum agglutinin (PSA), concanavalin A (ConA),
double staining] and transmission electron microscopy for identification of
acrosomal changes. Preliminary findings had demonstrated that similar
results were achieved with Trypan Blue and Hoechst 33258 staining.
Therefore, supravital stainings were omitted. In various experiments, human
spermatozoa were treated with two concentrations (10 and 3.3 microM) of
calcium ionophore A23187 for 15, 30 and 60 min after capacitation for 3 and
6 h at 37 degrees C. The percentages of spermatozoa with acrosomal loss
detected by fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-ConA were consistently lower
than those obtained by double staining or FITC-PSA, which showed comparable
results. Following 6 h of capacitation and incubation with 10 microM
ionophore for 1 h at 37 degrees C, 25.9 +/- 15.7% of all spermatozoa showed
almost complete loss of the acrosomal content. Binding of FITC- ConA to the
acrosomal region was observed in 27.0 +/- 13.2% of spermatozoa obtained
from the same sample. FITC-ConA and double staining or FITC-PSA detect
different stages of the acrosome reaction and may be helpful for a
differentiated evaluation of this sperm function.

Our objective was to study antisperm antibody bound to the acrosome region during in vitro capacitation and to determine whether acrosome-antibody free sperm can be obtained from previously acrosome-antibody-coated sperm. The spermatozoa from a selected series of 14 patients were tested for sperm antibodies bound to the sperm surface using d-IBT and focusing on the acrosome positivity. The tests were carried out before the incubation and after 3, 6, 9, and 12 h of incubation in Tyrode's solution with 0.5% human serum albumin as the capacitation medium. Tests to evaluate acrosome region, sperm motion parameters, and zonae binding ability were carried out. In this way we were able to evaluate sperm function during capacitation protocol. The patients were 14 subjects selected according to good seminal characteristics, good post-rise sperm parameters, and high percentage of ASA bound to the sperm surface. In all cases the results showed that antisperm antibodies bound to the acrosome region were shed prior to the acrosome reaction. During sperm capacitation in human a modification, migration, or shedding of plasma membrane molecules takes place. The presence of antibodies in such an important area of the sperm head could certainly interfere in the fertilization process. Our data indicate that in vitro capacitation could provide an in vitro therapy capable of eluting antibodies from the acrosome region. 相似文献

Pentoxifylline-stimulated capacitation and acrosome reaction in hamster spermatozoa: involvement of intracellular signalling molecules. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
We investigated the role of cAMP/cGMP, protein kinases and intracellular calcium ( [Ca2+]i) in pentoxifylline-stimulated hamster sperm capacitation and the acrosome reaction (AR) in vitro. Treatment with pentoxifylline (0.45 mM) initially increased sperm cAMP values 2.8-fold, compared with untreated controls (396 +/- 9.2 versus 141 +/- 6.0 fmoles/10(6) spermatozoa; mean +/- SEM, n = 6) after 15 min, although by 3 h, cAMP values were similar (503-531 fmoles/10(6) spermatozoa). cGMP values ( approximately 27 fmoles/10(6) spermatozoa) were the same in treated and control spermatozoa. Both sperm capacitation and the AR, determined from the absence of an acrosomal cap, were stimulated by pentoxifylline; these were almost completely inhibited by a Cl-/ HCO3- antiporter inhibitor (4,4-diisothiocyanato-stilbene-2,2 disulphonic acid; 1 mM) defined from the degree of sperm motility and by a protein kinase A inhibitor (H89; 10 microM). A protein kinase C inhibitor (staurosporine, 1 nM) did not affect pentoxifylline-stimulated capacitation but inhibited the AR by 50%. A protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor (tyrphostin A-47, 0.1 mM) had no effect on either pentoxifylline-stimulated capacitation or AR. A phospholipase A2 inhibitor (aristolochic acid, 0.4 mM) markedly inhibited the pentoxifylline-stimulated AR but not capacitation. When intracellular sperm calcium [Ca2+/-]i was measured using fura-2-AM, there was an early rise (271 nM at 0.5 h) in pentoxifylline-treated spermatozoa; this appeared to be due to intracellular mobilization rather than to uptake. In the absence of extracellular Ca2+, sperm motility was maintained in the presence of pentoxifylline, but capacitation did not occur; spermatozoa exhibited a low level of hyperactivated motility and had a poor rate of AR (20.5 +/- 2.3%). These results suggest that: (i) the pentoxifylline-stimulated early onset of sperm capacitation may be mediated by an early rise in cAMP and [Ca2+/-]i and involves protein kinase A activity; and (ii) pentoxifylline-stimulated AR may require phospholipase A2 and protein kinase C activity. 相似文献

PROBLEM: To develop an immunohistochemical assay for determination of acrosome-reacted human sperm and to study the effects of progesterone and cholesterol treatment on human sperm acrosome reaction. METHOD OF STUDY: Three distinct anti-sperm monoclonal antibodies were biotinylated and used as probes for assessment of acrosome reaction in a 30-min immunohistochemical assay. Progesterone and/or cholesterol were added to sperm preparation to influence the acrosome reaction in different experimental conditions. RESULTS: Percentages of acrosome-intact sperm decreased significantly during the 18-hr incubation. Acrosome reaction could be induced by progesterone as early as 2 hr after sperm incubation in human tubal fluid. The degree of progesterone-induced acrosome reaction was time dependent and the optimal effect was reached by adding 10 μg/ml progesterone for 30 min incubation. Progesterone-induced acrosome reaction was shown to be hormone-concentration dependent with 50% stimulation at 1 μg/ml. Cholesterol (1 μg/ml) was found to inhibit progesterone-induced acrosome reaction either by co-incubation with human sperm during capacitation, or by simultaneous incubation with progesterone during acrosome reaction induction. CONCLUSIONS: Assessment of human sperm acrosomal status by avidin-biotin immunohistochemical assay can be a routine in clinical laboratories for male infertility services. Cholesterol can inhibit progesterone-induced acrosome reaction, possibly by its modifications of sperm plasma membrane and/or interference of progesterone binding to its surface receptors. 相似文献
