Abstract

Immunoreactive prolactin in high concentration was detected in the human semen. Therefore, the effect of prolactin on the various metabolic parameters of the human spermatozoa was studied. It was found that prolactin brought about many of the biochemical changes in the spermatozoa which are known to be associated with the process of capacitation. These results suggest that prolactin has a role in the sperm capacitation.

摘要

在人类精液中检测到高浓度的免疫反应性催乳素。因此，研究了催乳素对人类精子各种代谢参数的影响。结果发现，催乳素引起了精子中许多已知与获能过程相关的生化变化。这些结果表明催乳素在精子获能中起作用。
