To assess the proliferative response of OC cells, we utilized both EdU (5-ethynyl-2' -deoxyuridine) and CCK8 assays. The role of PTX3 in facilitating cell migration and invasion was quantified through the use of Transwell assays. The protein expression levels were meticulously analyzed via Western blotting. Furthermore, to explore the interactions between proteins, we conducted immunofluorescence (IF) staining and co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) experiments.

PTX3 can activate the EMT and NF-κB signaling pathways in OC cells and can interact with the TLR4 and CD44 receptors in OC cells. Additionally, PTX3's modulation of the EMT and NF-κB pathways is partially dependent on its interaction with TLR4.

High levels of PTX3 in OC cells potentially enhance the attraction of dendritic cells (DCs) and CD4 + T cells while diminishing the recruitment of B cells and CD8 + T cells.

Cyclophosphamide (CTX)-induced POI mouse models were administrated with hUC-MSCs-EVs. Mouse ovarian granulosa cells (GCs) were induced with CTX, then treated with hUC-MSCs-EVs and ML385. Ovarian histopathological changes were observed, changes in follicle number at all levels were counted and serum sex hormones were evaluated, as well as LC3II/I and Beclin-1 expression. GCs were subject to detection of proliferation, deaths, oxidative stress, and Nrf2 nuclear translocation.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>After CTX exposure, mice showed thinner GCs layer in the ovary, reduced number of GCs and follicles at all levels, disturbed serum sex hormones, enhanced oxidative stress and autophagy, and downregulated ovarian IGF-1; whereas, hUC-MSCs-EVs upregulated IGF-1 to improve the ovarian function. hUC-MSCs-EVs carrying IGF-1 activated Nrf2/HO-1 signaling to inhibit CTX-induced excessive autophagy of GCs, but this ameliorative effect was partially weakened by inhibiting Nrf2/HO-1 signaling. hUC-MSCs-EVs inhibited excessive autophagy of GCs and improved ovarian function of CTX-induced mice through IGF-1/Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>hUC-MSCs-EVs activate the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling by carrying IGF-1, which in turn inhibits excessive autophagy and damage of GCs, thus improving ovarian function in POI mice.</p>","PeriodicalId":16610,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ovarian Research","volume":"17 1","pages":"224"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11566650/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142622445","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
