Descripción
The detection of significant levels of tryptase in human seminal plasma and follicular fluid and of tryptase-positive mast cells (MCs) in the wall of human Fallopian tubes lead us to hypothesize that tryptase may exert regulatory actions on human spermatozoa. Immunoelectronmicroscopy revealed proteinase-activated receptor 2 (PAR-2) in the membranes of the acrosomal region and midpiece of human spermatozoa. These PAR-2 were functional, as exposure of spermatozoa from healthy men (n = 12) with regular standard semen parameters to human recombinant tryptase significantly decreased motility in a dose- and time-dependent fashion. Motile spermatozoa (WHO a + b) were significantly decreased within 10 min of incubation with 1.000 ng/ml tryptase (P = 0.045). After 30 and 60 min, significant reduction of motility was also observed in the presence of lower tryptase concentrations (100 ng/ml, P = 0.037; 10 ng/ml, P = 0.046). The inhibitory effects of tryptase progressed throughout an observation period of 180 min. Furthermore, tryptase effects were reversible after washing procedures and could be inhibited by pretreatment with anti-tryptase antibody or anti-PAR-2 antiserum.
