1 1803827 The whole fertilization process can be affected by the presence of iso or auto-antibodies or even Fab fragments against specific antigens involved in fertilization like FA1 sperm surface antigen and ZP1, ZP2 and ZP3 oocyte surface antigens.
2 9114055 The FA-1 cDNA was subcloned into pGEX-2T vector and expressed in glutathione S-transferase gene fusion system to obtain the recombinant protein.
3 9159249 Notable among these are LDH-C4, RSA antigens, PH-20, SP 1U, HSA-63, FA-1, FA-2 and CS-1.
4 10582172 Several sperm antigens, such as lactate dehydrogenase C4, PH-20, sperm protein (SP)-10, fertilization antigen (FA)-1, FA-2, cleavage signal (CS)-1, NZ-1, and NZ-2 have been proposed as potential candidates for the vaccine development.
5 12931375 Some traditional crucial sperm membrane proteins, such as FA-1, PH-20, fertilin, have been cloned and sequenced, and some novel gene which encode new proteins associated with the sperm membrane also have been screened out successively.
6 17676591 In the present study, various synthetic peptides based upon four sperm proteins, namely Izumo, fertilization antigen-1 (FA-1), YLP(12), and SP56 that are involved in various steps of the fertilization cascade were examined for their immunocontraceptive effect.
7 17676591 These findings indicate for the first time that the immunization with Izumo and other sperm peptides namely FA-1, YLP(12), and SP56 induces antibodies in serum and genital tract that cause a reversible long-term contraceptive effect in female mice.
