Purified porcine seminal plasma protein enhances in vitro immune activities of porcine peripheral lymphocytes

The porcine seminal plasma protein (PSP) accounts for much more than 50% of the total proteins in seminal plasma. PSP has been previously purified and its biochemical properties characterized. However, the biological functions of PSP remain to be elucidated. We hypothesize that PSP is involved in th...
