- Abstract
Reports on the effect of progesterone on the immunolocalization, phosphorylation and activity of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK) in capacitated human spermatozoa. Short-term incubation of spermatozoa with progesterone induces phosphorylation and activation of ERKs; Redistribution of the proteins from the post-acrosomal region to the equatorial segment within the sperm head.
