Prostasome-Like Particles in Stallion Semen1

1 Aug 1998

Abstract excerpt

Human semen contains membranous vesicles called prostasomes. They are secreted by the prostate gland and contain large amounts of cholesterol, sphingomyelin, and Ca2+. Prostasomes enhance the motility of ejaculated spermatozoa and are involved in a number of additional biological functions. No prostasome-like vesicles have been described in horse semen up to now. We have demonstrated the presence of...
