Our observations of the role of seminal plasma in regulating potent inflammatory and angiogenic pathways in neoplastic cervical epithelial cells suggest use of barrier contraceptives as a method of preventing disease, not only as a barrier against HPV transmission, but as a method of preventing the inflammatory actions of
seminal fluid on the neoplastic cervical micro-environment.
The reproduction-related body fluids breast milk,
seminal fluid, and amniotic fluid all clustered together with bronchial lavage, peritoneal fluid, saliva, and tears.
Mutagenicity testing of
seminal fluid:
seminal fluid increases the mutagenicity of the precursor mutagen benzo[a]pyrene in the presence of $9 mix.
The major protease inhibitor, to which active single-chain PSA is covalently linked in a 1:1 molar ratio, is PCI.(19)) A smaller amount (30% to 40%) of catalytically inactive PSA in
seminal fluid exists mainly as internally cleaved, two-chain or multichain forms of the protein(15, 21) reported to be the result of C-terminal cleavages at position Lysl45, but also at Lysl82.(21) The active proteases performing these cleavages are not yet identified.
Differences in calibration have also been proposed to contribute to variability among assays.[3,13] Differences may reflect calibrator assignment and composition of the calibrators and specific molecular form(s) used.[6,7] Initial assays used free PSA from
seminal fluid as a calibrator material.
Physiological costs include
seminal fluid toxicity (Chapman et al.
The amount of
seminal fluid and spermatophores stored in the vas deferens both before (Y = 0.04X - 2.40, [r.sup.2] = 0.263, n = 335, P [less than] 0.001) and after (Y = 0.03X - 1.92, [r.sup.2] = 0.202, n = 335, P [less than] 0.001) one mating increased with male size [ILLUSTRATION FOR FIGURE 5 OMITTED].
When the condition is caused by activity other than contagious infection, it may be attributed to swelling caused by excessive sexual activity that strains the gland's ability to produce or store
seminal fluid. (Urinary tract infections may mimic prostatitis.)
18), this quantity of
seminal fluid would contain 100,000 viral particles.
The prostate, located between the bladder and the rectum, secretes
seminal fluid, in which the sperm is carried.
The last step of mating, which is sperm and
seminal fluid release?"
