  Seminal vesicle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The seminal vesicles are a pair of glands on the posterior surface of the urinary bladder of males.
Seminal vesicle secretions contain proteins, enzymes, fructose, phosphorylcholine and prostaglandins.
The two seminal vesicles empty into the urethra near the prostate gland along with the vas deferens (the tubes coming from the testes).

 CHAP
These two seminal fluids are extracts from all parts of the body; and a mixture of them is all that is necessary for the formation of a certain number of males and females.
The more any animal abounds in this seminal fluid, or the more it abounds in organic particles, the number of young is the greater, as may be remarked in the smaller animals; and the number of young diminishes in proportion as the organic particles are less abundant, as is the case with the larger animals.
This fluid is at first, perhaps, nothing but a portion of the seminal liquors of the father and mother; and, as the foetus is not thrown out of the uterus, it enjoys, from the moment of its forma- [ 292 ] tion, as much external heat as is sufficient for its expansion.

Specimens containing seminal fluid can be inseminated intra- cervically because the cervix acts as a natural filter, removing the seminal fluid, which is seen as foreign to the uterine environment.
Specimens used for IUI cannot contain seminal fluid and therefore must undergo a wash process to remove it either prior to cryopreservation or prior to the insemination.
Seminal fluid is removed prior to intra-uterine inseminations and most other ART procedures.

Purification to near homogeneity was accomplished for the abundant seminal plasma a -L-fucosidase by centrifugation, dialysis, affinity chromatography on a substrate analog resin, and ultrafiltration.
The a -L-fucosidase of the seminal plasma appears in several multimeric forms of a 56 kDa glycoprotein subunit that does contain terminal sialic acid residues, and is a soluble enzyme with little or no affinity for lipid materials.
Comparative characterization of unpurified human seminal fluid and sperm a -L-fucosidases indicates a broad pH optimum between pH 4-7.4 with the maxima at pH 6.2 and 4.6 for seminal fluid fucosidase while sperm fucosidase has major optima at pH 7.3, 6.1, and 4.4.

For further elucidation of the known hypocoagulable state of human ovarian follicular fluid and the suggested correlation between subfertility and coagulum formation after ejaculation, we have investigated TFPI levels in liquor folliculi and for the first time in seminal plasma.
Total TFPI concentrations were measured in seminal plasma samples of 28 healthy ejaculate donors and 23 infertile patients with oligo-, astheno- or teratozoospermia.
The decreased TFPI concentrations in seminal plasma of infertile men support the possible correlation between the coagulum liquefication properties of ejaculated semen and the semen quality which is in concordance with the findings of other groups.

 HIV in Semen of Men Receiving HAART-
The virions produced from the seminal cells after transfer from a man who is receiving HAART to a sexual partner should be infectious because the concentrations of antiviral drugs in the semen would be diluted to low levels.
The authors reported that the sequences of the V-3 loop region of the viruses recovered from peripheral blood cells and those recovered from seminal cells from patients 4 and 6 were different and suggested that at least some viral replication is compartmentalized within the male genital tract and the peripheral blood.
Because the sequences isolated from seminal cells differed than those obtained from the peripheral blood cells the infected seminal cells may not have come from the peripheral blood..

Anaphylaxis caused by human seminal fluid has been shown to be due to IgE-mediated sensitization by proteins of varying molecular weight.
Immunotherapy to properly fractionated seminal fluid proteins has been universally successful in preventing anaphylaxis to seminal fluid provided the sensitizing seminal fluid fractions are used as immunogens.

In order to remove the seminal plasma, the sperm were washed three times using a continuous-step density gradient centrifugation method.
However, there are reports of "desensitization" by intravaginal applications of graded amounts of the partner's seminal fluid (Allergy 1999;54:990-3).

The concentration of the new bioactive acetic seminal fluid protein (aSFP) was determined in body fluids of bulls.
The 14 kDa aSFP was detected in secretions of ampulla and seminal vesicles by immunoblot analysis, but not in testis, epididymis or blood.
Large quantities of aSFP were measured by radioimmunoassay in the fluid from the ampulla (2.6 +/- 0.3 mg ml-1) and seminal vesicles (3.0 +/- 0.4 mg ml-1).

The prostate is a muscular, walnut-sized gland that surrounds part of the urethra, the tube that transports urine and sperm out of the body.
A part of the male reproductive system, the prostate secretes seminal fluid, a milky substance that combines with sperm produced in the testicles to form semen.
While this is uncomfortable, it generally does not impair a man's ability to function sexually; however, the discomfort and embarrassment it causes can interfere with sexual activity.

 Prostate FAQ
During ejaculation, contractions of the smooth muscle in the prostate force the fluid out of the acini and into the urethra where it mixes with the secretions from the seminal vesicles, the testicles, and other glands and is carried to the tip of the penis.
Examination of the urine and prostatic fluid, particularly via the Meares and Stamey technique or the Feliciano technique, indicate that disease-causing bacteria and/or fungi are present in the prostate.
Output of the seminal vesicle mixes with the sperm from the vas deferens and flows through a duct which then passes the fluid through the prostate to the urethra.
