Significant differences in the frequency of spontaneous and induced acrosome reactions (identified by electron microscopy) were detected between 5 individual sperm samples. Maximal stimulation of the acrosome reaction was achieved with ionophore A23187, no differences being detected between the two preincubation times used (5 and 15 h). The cumulus oophorus and follicular fluid caused a similar increase in the proportion of acrosome-reacted spermatozoa after 5 h of preincubation. It is concluded that specific products of the cumulus and/or granulosa cells may contribute to the acrosome reaction-inducing activity of human follicular fluid.
