Hormones in Seminal Plasma [PDF]
Archives of Andrology, 1982 Testosterone and prolactin play an important but unclear role in the process of spermatogenesis. Peripheral levels of these hormones are usually normal in infertile patients even when the characteristics of the sperm are subnormal. This study was conducted to evaluate the possible relationship between sperm quality and seminal content of testosterone ...

Quantification of Seminal Plasma Motility Inhibitor/Semenogelin in Human Seminal Plasma [PDF]
Journal of Andrology, 2003 ABSTRACT: Semenogelin I and II (Sg I and II) are the major components of human semen coagulum. The protein is rapidly cleaved after ejaculation by the chymotrypsin‐like protease prostate‐specific antigen (PSA), which results in the liquefaction of the semen coagulum and the progressive release of motile spermatozoa. One of the cleavage products of the

Seminal plasma and prostaglandin E2 up-regulate fibroblast growth factor 2 expression in endometrial adenocarcinoma cells via E-series prostanoid-2 receptor-mediated transactivation of the epidermal growth factor receptor and extracellular signal-regulated kinase pathway [PDF]
, 2007 BACKGROUND: Prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) has been shown to modulate angiogenesis and tumour progression via the E-series prostanoid-2 (EP2) receptor. Endometrial adenocarcinomas may be exposed to endogenous PGE(2) and exogenous PGE(2), present at high ...

Seminal Plasma: Relevant for Fertility? [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Seminal plasma (SP), the non-cellular component of semen, is a heterogeneous composite fluid built by secretions of the testis, the epididymis and the accessory sexual glands. Its composition, despite species-specific anatomical peculiarities, consistently contains inorganic ions, specific hormones, proteins and peptides, including cytokines and ...
