Immunolocalization of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp 70) in boar spermatozoa and its role during fertilization
2 Sept 2005
Abstract excerpt
The presence and cellular distribution of heat protein 70 (Hsp70) in ejaculated, capacitated, and acrosome-reacted boar spermatozoa was evaluated by immunofluorescence and Western blot; the role of Hsp70 during fertilization was also studied. In freshly ejaculated spermatozoa, Hsp70 immunoreactivity is present in a well-defined triangular-shaped area in the equatorial segment that seems to correspond to the...
