Human serum and follicular fluid stimulate hyperactivation of human spermatozoa after preincubation.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To test the effects of steroid-containing media such as follicular fluid (FF) and serum and of steroid-free but human protein-rich medium on hyperactivation (HA) of human spermatozoa with and without a preincubation period. DESIGN:Analysis of HA using a computer-aided sperm analysis system. SETTING:Academic hospital and andrologic laboratory. PATIENTS:Twenty-six sperm samples were obtained from 26 different IVF patients. INTERVENTIONS:None. RESULTS:After a preincubation period of 3 hours, FF and serum enhanced the HA after 1 hour. A human plasma protein-rich solution did not. Without preincubation, no stimulation of HA was observed. CONCLUSION:Steroids may be involved in HA, and a preincubation period may be required for an appropriate FF-induced HA.
