pubmed:abstractText |
Recent studies in several laboratories are focused on delineating sperm antigens that are relevant to fertility and examining involvement of antibodies to these antigens in human immunoinfertility. Our laboratory has characterized two such antigens, namely fertilization antigen (FA-1) and YLP12 dodecamer sequence that are involved in sperm-oocyte binding. The present study was conducted to examine the occurrence of isoantibodies to various peptide epitopes of human and murine FA-1 antigen and YLP12 peptide in sera of immunoinfertile and fertile women.
