Inhibition of capacitation in the rabbit.

Abstract:

:The effectiveness of antiestrogens and progestins in the inhibition of capacitation in the rabbit uterus and oviduct was studied. The agents tested were 8 mg/day nafoxidine HCL (NHCL), 4 mg/day fluoxymesterone (FM), 4 and 20 mg/day clomiphene citrate (CC), 8 mg/day testosterone (T), 8 mg/day dydrogesterone (D) 4 and 8 mg/day 20alpha-hyd roxyprogesterone (HP), 4, 8, 40, and 120 mg/day progesterone (P), 4 mg/day norethindrone (NE), and .5, 2, 5, and 20 mg/day chlormadinone acetate (CA). nhcl, fm, cc, d, hp (8 mg/day), NE, and CA reduced fertilization, though capacitation was still possible. The highest dose of P failed to inhibit capacitation in the oviduct. T and HP (4 mg/day) failed to reduce fertilization. However, CC and NE sharply reduced ovulation in all animals (an average of less than 1 egg per rabbit), while 20 mg/day of CC completely inhibited ovulation. CA accelerated the passage of some eggs to the uterus. 8 mg/day of HP, 1 mg/day of P, and 2 mg/day of CA completely inhibited capacitation in the uterus. The capacitation ability of the oviduct was not impaired by P, NE, or, CA. It was found that 2500 units of P were required to completely abolish the effect of 1 unit of estradiol. It is concluded that the contraceptive effect of the drugs tested are not due to inhibition of capacitation, but rather to faulty transport of sperm and eggs, inhibiti on of ovulation, and production of an environment in the female reproductive tract that is hostile to sperm.
