[Effect of acupuncture on the oxeiptosis Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1/phosphoglycerate mutase 5/mitochondrial apoptosis-inducing factor 1 signaling pathway in rats with diminished ovarian reserve].

Objectives: To observe the effect of acupuncture on the oxeiptosis Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (KEAP1)/phosphoglycerate mutase 5 (PGAM5)/mitochondrial apoptosis-inducing factor 1 (AIFM1) signaling pathway in rats with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR), so as to explore the possible mechanisms by which acupuncture improves ovarian reserve function in DOR rats.

Methods: Female SD rats were randomly divided into the control group, model group, and acupuncture group, with 6 rats in each group. The DOR model was established by one-time intraperitoneal injection of 75 mg/kg cyclophosphamide.
