Marked Differences in Protamine Content and P1/P2 Ratios in Sperm Cells From Percoll Fractions Between Patients and Controls

6 May 2003

Abstract excerpt

The various sperm cell types present in a simple ejaculate differ in their motility and morphology. However, little is known about the nuclear maturity of these sperm cells and their relationship with morphological and motile characteristics. Protamines are considered a good marker of sperm nuclear maturity since they are added to the DNA in the last stage of spermatogenesis. We have analyzed the P1/P2 ratio and...
