Identification of functional α2- and β-adrenergic receptors in mammalian spermatozoa

17 Feb 2006

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: A recent study of several compounds, structurally related to amphetamine, provided evidence that mammalian spermatozoa might have adrenergic receptors able to regulate cAMP production. The present study investigated this possibility using physiological and immunochemical analyses of mouse and human spermatozoa. METHODS: Antibodies specific for different receptor subtypes were used for Western blotting...
