Human Sperm Plasma Membrane Progesterone Receptor(s) and the Acrosome Reaction1

1 May 1996

Abstract excerpt

Progesterone initiation of te human sperm acrosome reaction (AR) includes stimulation of a transient Ca2+ influx and a transient Cl- efflux. A role for one or more plasma membrane receptors has been suggested, but, except for evidence supporting the involvement of a sperm GABAA-like receptor/Cl- channel, there is little information about possible receptor identity. Here, we attempt to identify plasma membrane...
