The presence of immunoreactive prolactin, luteinizing hormone (LH) and progesterone in buffalo seminal plasma is reported for the first time. Correlations were obtained between various semen attributes and the levels of the above immunoreactive hormones. Statistically significant (P < 0.01) negative correlations were found between the levels of immunoreactive prolactin in semen and sperm motility and viability. The coefficient of multiple linear correlation (R2) between the levels of immunoreactive progesterone, prolactin and LH in the seminal plasma and the various attributes of semen revealed that immunoreactive progesterone and prolactin showed stronger interactions than did LH. The biological significance of these immunoreactive hormones in semen is discussed.
首次报道了水牛精液中存在免疫反应性催乳素、促黄体生成素(LH)和孕酮。研究获得了各种精液指标与上述免疫反应性激素水平之间的相关性。精液中免疫反应性催乳素水平与精子活力和存活率之间存在统计学显著(P < 0.01)的负相关。精液中免疫反应性孕酮、催乳素和LH水平与精液各种指标之间的多重线性相关系数(R2)表明,免疫反应性孕酮和催乳素的相互作用比LH更强。本文还讨论了这些精液中免疫反应性激素的生物学意义。
