摘要

Human seminal plasma (SP) is a unique source of kallikreins. Prostate-specific antigen (hK3), which is a chymotrypsin-like human prostatic kallikrein (CHPK), and its cousin protein (hK2), which is recognized as a trypsin-like human prostatic kallikrein (THPK), have been assessed in infertility disorders to test the hypothesis that oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (OAT) is associated with an abnormal prostatic function. Monoclonal antibodies specific for THPK (hK2) were produced by Immunova, Canada, and used to develop a new enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay procedure and to perform Western blot analyses in SP. The immunoradiometric assay from Hybritech Inc., San Diego, Calif., was selected for CHPK (hK3) measurements in SP. Determinations of the THPK and of CHPK contents in SP from four groups of subjects were performed after validation of the assays. The concentration of both kallikreins was similar in three groups of infertile men, and no statistical difference from the control group was recorded. Western blot analysis confirmed the existence of different molecular forms of both kallikreins in SP. Generally, these molecular forms were not affected by infertility disorders except when obstructive azoospermia led to the exclusion of seminal vesicles, which are the sources of protein C inhibitor (PCI). No THPK-PCI complex was observed because THPK, unlike CHPK, is bound mainly to PCI within a few minutes after ejaculation. These data suggest that measurements of kallikreins in the SP of infertile men are much less useful than evaluation of their different molecular forms. Specifically, the absence of THPK-PCI appears to be a reliable feature of obstructive azoospermia, and this test should be routinely practiced in andrology laboratories.
