## Abstract Acrosome reactions occurring in vitro in hamster sperm capacitated by bovine follicular fluid were severely inhibited by four synthetic trypsin inhibitors and by Zn^2^ +. Three polypeptide trypsin inhibitors and a synthetic chymotrypsin inhibitor did not inhibit the acrosome reaction, a
## Abstract The effects of trypsin inhibitors and phospholipase inhibitors on the acrosome reaction of washed cauda epididymal sperm of golden hamsters were studied using two different incubation systems. One incubation system, a non‐synchronous acrosome reaction inducing system, included the use o
## 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
## Abstract Hamster sperm incubated in vitro were used to determine: (1) when hyaluronidase is released from sperm undergoing acrosome detachment, i.e., either a degenerative or normal acrosome reaction, and (2) what ultrastructural changes occur in the acrosomes of living sperm during hyaluronidas
