    Streszczenie angielskie: Methyl xanthines have been used frequently as additives to sperm suspensions in order to improve sper characteristics. The mechanism of action on spermatozoa is generally assumed to be inhibition of sperm phospodiesterase activity, resulting in elevation of complementary adenosine monophosphate levels in spermatozoa. The present study was designed to examine the effect of methyl xanthines (pentoxifylline, caffeine, and theophylline) on another important enzyme system, alkaline phosphatase, in boar seminal plasma and spermatozoa. Inhibition of sperm alkaline phosphatase could be distinguished from that of seminal plasma by a paradoxical stimulation by pentoxifylline at lower pH values in spermatozoa. Among the three methyl xanthines, theophylline exhibited the most dramatic inhibition of alkaline phosphatase activity and substrate inhibition was observed with increasing concentrations. Each methyl xanthine had a different action on alkaline phosphatase activity at lower pH; theophylline showed the highest inhibition, caffeine inhibition was not related to pH, and pentoxifylline did not inhibit alkaline phosphatase of seminal plasma and, in fact, it stimulated its activity (or that of a phosphatase with lower pH optimum) in spermatozoa. These results indicate another possible mechanism of action of methyl xanthines on sperm and are in agreement with data indicating that methyl xanthines are not specific inhibitors of sperm phosphodiesterase, because clearly, they inhibit alkaline phosphatase activity as well.
