Chemotherapy-induced ovarian damage and fertility preservation in young patients with cancer are emerging disciplines. The mechanism of treatment-related gonadal damage provides important information for targeting prevention methods. The genomic aspects of ovarian damage after chemotherapy are not fully understood. Several studies have demonstrated that gene alterations related to follicular apoptosis or accelerated follicle activation are related to ovarian insufficiency and susceptibility to ovarian damage following chemotherapy. This may accelerate follicular apoptosis and follicle reservoir utilization and damage the ovarian stroma via multiple molecular reactions after chemotherapy. This review highlights the importance of genomic considerations in chemotherapy-induced ovarian damage and multidisciplinary oncofertility strategies for providing high-quality care to young female cancer patients.

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a multifaceted metabolic and hormonal disorder in females of reproductive age, frequently associated with cardiac disturbances. This research aimed to explore the protective potential of adropin and/or tirzepatide (Tirze) on cardiometabolic aberrations in the letrozole-induced PCOS model. Female Wistar non-pregnant rats were allotted into five groups: CON; PCOS; PCOS + adropin; PCOS + Tirze; and PCOS + adropin+ Tirze.

Prepubertal chemotherapy induced ovarian damage poses a significant threat to female fertility, particularly following cyclophosphamide (CP) treatment. Humanin (HNG), a small molecule polypeptide encoded by mitochondrial DNA, has a variety of effects, this study aimed to investigate the protective effects of HNG and its combination with conventional Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone Agonist (GnRHa) on ovarian function in a CP-induced damage model. The 21-day-old C57BL/6J female mice were randomly assigned to six groups: Control, CP model, HNG, HNG+CP, GnRHa+CP, and HNG+GnRHa+CP.

Gengnianchun Against HO-Induced Oxidative Damage in KGN Cells via miR-548m/FOXO3 Signaling.

J Cell Biochem

January 2025

Department of Integrated Traditional Chinese Medicine and Western Medicine, The Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University, Shanghai, China.

Gengnianchun (GNC) is a traditional remedy used for diminished ovarian reserve, but its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to explore these mechanisms in human granulosa-like cancer (KGN) cells pretreated with medicated rat serum (MRS) before HO exposure. MRS pretreatment significantly alleviated HO-induced cell damage, including improvements in cell viability, superoxide dismutase and GSH-Px activities, and Bcl-2 expression.

Network pharmacology uncovers that secoisolariciresinol diglucoside ameliorate premature ovarian insufficiency via PI3K/Akt pathway.

Sci Rep

January 2025

School of Basic Medical Sciences, Jiangxi Medical College, Nanchang University, No.461 Bayi Road, Donghu District, Nanchang, 330006, Jiangxi Province, People's Republic of China.

As one of the essential lignan derivative found in traditional Chinese medicinal herbs, secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG) was proved to promote women's health through its phytoestrogenic properties. Increasingly studies indicated that this compound could be a potential drug capable of preventing estrogen-related diseases. Here, we aimed to investigate whether SDG can counteract cyclophosphamide (CTX) induced premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and further explore its specific molecular mechanism.

Pesticides tend to cause serious reproductive defects, disturbing endocrine functions and reducing fertility, especially in females. The objective of this work was to identify the reprotoxic effects of Ampligo® 150 ZC (AP), a mixture formulation of lambda cyhalothrin and chlorantraniliprole, on the ovary of female rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and the possible protective effect of co-treatment with thyme essential oil (TEO), extracted from (Thymus vulgaris) species, and vitamin C (vit C). Twenty female rabbits were divided into four equal groups (n=5): Control (distilled water), AP (20mg/ kg bw of the insecticide mixture every other day, by gavage for 28 days), AP+TEO (20mg/ kg bw of AP + 0.
