## Abstract There have been conflicting reports concerning the involvement of cyclic nucleotides in sperm capacitation. We have examined the effects of micromolar concentrations of dibutyryl cyclic AMP (Bt~2~cAMP) and of the phosphodiesterase inhibitors SQ20009 and ICI63,197 on hamster sperm incuba

Uncapacitated boar sperm treated with the divalent cation ionophore A23187 in the presence of calcium bind to and penetrate zone-free hamster eggs. Penetration by ionophore-treated sperm is, however, blocked when sperm are pretreated with antisperm plasma membrane Fab. The antibody apparently interf

## Abstract The sperm acrosome reaction (AR) is a crucial step for mammalian fertilization. This work describes experiments to test the effect of the cesium ion (Cs^+^) and charybdotoxin (ChTX) on the Ca^2+^ or Na^+^/K^+^ ionophores stimulated hamster sperm AR in vitro. Cs^+^ and ChTX, a polypeptid
