## Abstract Phospholipase A~2~ and lysophospholipids have been implicated in the mammalian sperm acrosome reaction. In this study we further investigated the role of this enzyme and lysophospholipids on the acrosome reaction of hamster spermatozoa. Hamster epididymal spermatozoa were incubated unde

## Abstract Two inhibitors of somatic cell transmethylation, homocysteine thiolactone (Hcy) and 3–deazadenosine (3–DZA), inhibited the acrosome reactions of hamster sperm in vitro. Hcy (250 μM) or 3–DZA (200 μM) inhibited acrosome reactions by approximately 30% after 4 hours of incubation with wash

The glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) hyaluronic acid and heparin were added (10 pg and 100 pglml to golden hamster sperm suspensions previously incubated for 4.5 h under capacitating conditions. After additions, sperm were incubated for 5-15 min and acrosome reactions (AR) assayed in motile sperm by phase

## 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

This study describes investigations of the importance of intraacrosomal pH in the hamster sperm acrosome reaction (AR). Washed cauda epididymal sperm were capacitated in vitro in a medium containing 2 mM Ca2+, 144 mM Na+, and 3 mM K + . Such sperm underwent a significant increase in the number of AR
