CA 2515779

The present invention concerns the use of compositions and methods of regulating or evaluating fertility in an animal, in particular a mammal. In various embodiments of the invention, methods of contraception include inhibiting proteasome activity of a gamete, in particular spermatozoon. Proteasomal activity may be inhibited in vitro or in vivo. Inhibitors of the proteasome pathway include, but are not limited to small molecules, peptides, polypeptides (e.g., antibodies and the like) and affinity reagents that bind various components of the proteasome pathway (e.g., aptamers, etc.). In some embodiments, the activity of the proteasome pathway or the activity of a component in the proteasome pathway is inhibited by antibodies that bind and inhibit one or more components of the proteasome pathway.

Cette invention concerne l'utilisation de compositions et de méthodes permettant de réguler ou d'évaluer la fertilité chez un animal, en particulier chez un mammifère. Dans divers modes de réalisation de cette invention, ces méthodes de contraception consistent à inhiber l'activité du protéasome d'un gamète, en particulier d'un spermatozoïde. L'activité du protéasome peut être inhibéein vitro ou in vivo. Parmi les inhibiteurs de la voie du protéasome figurent notamment des petites molécules, des peptides, des polypeptides (tels que des anticorps et analogue), ainsi que des réactifs d'affinité qui se lient à divers composants de la voie du protéasome (tels que les apatamères). Dans certains modes de réalisation, l'activité de la voie du protéasome ou l'activité d'un composant présent dans la voie du protéasome est inhibée par des anticorps qui se lient à un ou plusieurs composants de la voie du protéasome et qui les inhibent.
