Relationship between serum and seminal plasma prolactin in bonnet monkeys.

The relationship between serum and seminal plasma concentration of prolactin were investigated in four adult bonnet monkeys. Hyperprolactenemia induced by acute and chronic treatment with chlorpromazine showed significantly higher prolactin levels in seminal plasma on 8th and 16th day respectively, by which time the serum prolactin levels have already reached pretreatment levels. The study suggests that it may be possible to affect the sperm fertilizing capacity by pharmacologically affecting serum prolactin concentrations.

Levels of inhibin in human semen and accessory reproductive organs.

Levels of inhibin in the seminal plasma of oligozoospermic and normozoospermic semen and normal human accessory reproductive organs were estimated using specific and sensitive radioimmunoassay (RIA). Seminal inhibin content showed a positive correlation (r = 0.827) with the sperm concentration. Further, in the human accessory reproductive organs, prostate showed maximum content of inhibin as compared to the seminal vesicle and the epididymis.
