Dynamic and role of cytosekeletal proteins in mammalian sperm cells
Paleček, J. ; Dvořáková, K. ; Pěknicová, Jana ; Kubátová, Alena ; Dráber, Pavel
The cytoskeleton of sperm head consists of resistant structural proteins of the nucleus and of perinuclear theca, which are largely rosponsible for the shaping of the nucleus. three mahjor cyteskeletal proteins, actin, tzubnulin and spectrin, are present in the head of mammalian spermatohzoa. Maoreober, the mictotubular cytoskeleton also contains other dynamic proteins, which have a morphological function within the cell and which are responsible for cell signalling processes.

Iscare IVF a.s. had a long record of successful azoospermic treatment since 1997, when the first pregnancies by MESA a TESE were published in the Czech republic. A series of diferent implanted laboratory techniques supported good results from last year. The medical problem is solved during the other field of application-histlogical findings and immunofluorescent methods.

Characterization of peptide proteinase inhibitors isolated from boar seminal plasma
Jelínková, Petra ; Tichá, M. ; Jonáková, Věra
Most of proteins of boar seminal plasma are present in this medium under physiological conditions in the form of aggregates and not of monomers. In the present communication we have shown that not only spermadhesins, but also proteinase inhibitors participate in the formation of associated complexes. Proteinase inhibitors were found after gel chromatographic separation mainly in the fraction with the lowest relative molecular mass. Two different types of serine proteinase inhibitors were isolated from boar seminal plasma ů (i) glycosylated inhibitor with Mr 12 kDa, (ii) non-glycosylated sperm-associated acrosin inhibitor with Mr 8 kDa, and a new type of low molecular weight protein that is probably composed of two subunits coupled by the -S-S- bridge. The proteinase inhibitor with Mr 8 kDa was proved to form a heterodimer with AQN 1 spermadhesin under physiological conditions, whereas inhibitor with Mr 12 kDa forms homodimers.
