The Relation Between Fertility and Prostaglandin Content of Seminal Fluid in Man

Reads0

TLDR
The finding of low prostaglandin E content in seminal fluid compared with controls and noninvestigated infertile male partners (B) shows that the E compounds are important for reproduction.

Intravaginal prostaglandin E1 increases vaginal blood flow.

TL;DR: It is concluded that seminal fluid PGE1 can produce vaginal vasodilation and the role of seminal fluid PG induced increases in vaginal blood flow upon reproductive success, if any, is entirely speculative.

Fractionation and characterization of oxytocinases in human semen.

TL;DR: Two isoenzymes of oxytocinase activity were fractionated from human seminal plasma by acrylamide-agarose gel chromatography and partly characterized using S-benzyl-L-cysteine-p-nitroanilide (BCN) and L-leucine- p-nitrosine (LN) separately as substrates, indicating similar substrate affinity and thermal sensitivity, and susceptibility to EDTA, divalent metal ions, L-m

Evaluation of vaginal misoprostol effect on pregnancy rate after intrauterine insemination.

TL;DR: Vaginal misoprostol after intrauterine insemination does not improve pregnancy rate and there were no significant statistical differences in complications between the two groups.

Prostaglandins in Pregnancy

TL;DR: The prostaglandins and related compounds are potent substances that occur naturally in the body and are important mediators of smooth muscle activity, vascular tone, coagulation, inflammation, immune responses, lipid and glucose metabolism, renal function, and reproductive physiology and pathology.

A simple procedure for the chromatographic isolation and determination of prostaglandins from human seminal plasma

TL;DR: A relatively simple procedure for the isolation and determination of the prostaglandins present in human seminal fluid is described in this article, which involves preliminary chromatographic purification of these compounds from the major non-prostaglandin impurities followed by their total elution in one solvent (one-step elution).

Introduction to Statistical Analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce statistical analysis and introduce the concept of statistical analysis in statistical analysis, and propose a framework for statistical analysis for the analysis of statistical data in the literature.

Studies on 5-hydroxytryptamine stores in pineal gland of rat.

TL;DR: There is strong evidence to support the view that the sympathetic nerves of the rat's pineal are noradrenergic, but take up 5-HT from the parenchymal cells into their terminal portions, which run within the gland.

Prostaglandins in Human Seminal Plasma PROSTAGLANDINS AND RELATED FACTORS 46

TL;DR: This study on human seminal plasma sought after the compounds which either possess the dienone chromophore or can be converted into it by treatment with sodium hydroxide and led to the isolation of 8 more prostaglandins which were present in higher concentrations than the previously recognized PGs.

TL;DR: In a group of men (10 patients) with suspected infertility of unknown origin were found two patients with very low concentrations of prostaglandins, which are found in men with normal fertility.
