2. Figure 1
Visualization of human spermatozoa-triggered NETs by SEM and TEM. NETs induced by vital human spermatozoa after 2 hours of exposure to human PMN. SEM analysis shows (A-D) the activation of PMN in the presence of human spermatozoa. Spermatozoa-triggered NETs formation and the capture of sperm by NETs structures. White arrows indicate NETs structures, red arrows indicate PMN, and yellow arrows indicate sperm being trapped by NETs. TEM (E and F) shows the activation of PMN by human sperm as the surface becomes rough and forms foldings and crinkles: (E) sperm phagocytosis and (F) completely covered sperm by NET-like extrusions. White arrows indicate NET-like extrusions, red arrows indicate intracellular sperm within PMN after phagocytosis, and yellow arrows indicate a sperm being entrapped by thicker NET-like extrusion (×98.500).

3. Figure 2
Representative immunofluorescence images of PMN exposed to sperm. Coincubation PMN/sperm ratio 1:6 for 2 hours. Phase contrast (A, E, and I), blue fluorescence stains the nuclei of cells (DAPI, B, F, and J), green fluorescence (Alexafluor 488) shows different components of NETs, (C) HIS (histone H3), (G) MPO, and (K) NE. Colocalization areas are shown in panels D, H, and L by mixing both channels (merge).

4. Figure 3
Effect in time on the progressive motility of human sperm of incubation of PMN/sperm with different ratios (1:18, 6:18, 9:18). Data are shown as percentages of progressively motile sperm (progressive motility [%]). Graph with three biological replicas. The results correspond to the mean ± SD. Differences were regarded as significant (*, ***) at a level of P<.001.

5. Supplemental Figure 1
Coincubation PMN/sperm ratio 1:6, for 2 hours. (A) Blue fluorescence stains the DNA of nuclei cells and NETs (white arrows) of DAPI (NETs trapping sperm), (B and C), green fluorescence (Alexa fluor 488) shows different components of NETs: (B) green arrows, MPO; (C) red arrow, colocalization of DNA and NE.
