Abstract

Inhibition of sperm motility by anti-relaxin antiserum has been previously reported. This effect may be secondary to a nonspecific effect of immunoglobulins binding to sperm or to a specific inhibition of relaxin activity at the sperm surface. The current investigation demonstrates that an anti-insulin antiserum does not inhibit sperm motility in the same system in which an anti-relaxin antiserum results in inhibition. This supports the hypothesis that the anti-relaxin antiserum effect is specific.
