Stress and infertility form a complex relationship. In line with this, various stress-related biological markers have been investigated in infertility.This systematic review was performed using PRISMA guidelines (i) to report whether cortisol is highly present infertile patients compared fertile control; (ii) there any significant difference the level subjects that conceive those didn't at end of assisted reproduction treatments. Original articles involving human (male female) as were extracted from four electronic databases, including list references published papers. Sixteen original full-length male (4), female (11), both genders (1) included.Findings studies between indicate Male: three reported elevated one found no difference; Female: increased difference. Findings measured conceived study conceived, whereas two unable conceive. Five groups.In we only included value prior stimulation or IVF treatment during natural spontaneous cycles, despite are still variations sampling period, assessment techniques patients' characteristics. Hence, present, conclude significantly patients. We warrant future standardize time sample collection other limitations addressed negate unwanted influencing factors.

The oocyte is recognised as the largest cell in mammalian species and other multicellular organisms. Mitochondria represent a high proportion of cytoplasm oocytes mitochondrial architecture different than somatic cells, characterised by rounder appearance fragmented network. Although number mitochondria per higher any cell, their activity decrease with advancing age. integrate numerous processes essential for cellular function, such metabolic related to energy production, biosynthesis, waste removal, well Ca2+ signalling reactive oxygen (ROS) homeostasis. Further, are responsible adaptation types stressors oxidative stress or DNA damage. When these outstrip adaptive capacity restore homeostasis, it leads dysfunction.

Aging is a natural process that determined by functional decline in cells and tissues as organisms are growing old, resulting an increase at risk of disease death. To this end, many efforts have been made to control aging lifespan healthspan. These led the discovery several anti-aging drugs compounds such rapamycin metformin. Recently, alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG) has introduced potential metabolite can functions organisms, thereby increases longevity improves Unlike other synthetic drugs, AKG one metabolites tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, also known Krebs synthesized body. It plays crucial role cell energy metabolism, amino acid/protein synthesis, epigenetic regulation, stemness differentiation, fertility reproductive health, cancer behaviors. exerts its effects through different mechanisms inhibiting mTOR ATP-synthase, modulating DNA histone demethylation reducing ROS formation. Herein, we summarize recent findings AKG-related healthspan studies discuss associated molecular involved increasing longevity, improving reproduction, stem behavior.

Abstract Female fecundity declines in a nonlinear manner with age during the reproductive years, even as ovulatory cycles continue, which reduces female fertility, disrupts metabolic homeostasis, and eventually induces various chronic diseases. Despite this, aging‐related cellular molecular changes human ovaries that occur these years have not been elucidated. Here, single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq) of is performed from different childbearing ages reveals activation pyroptosis pathway increased age, mainly macrophages. The enrichment pyroptotic macrophages leads to switch tissue‐resident macrophage (TRM)‐involve immunoregulatory microenvironment young monocyte‐derived (MDM)‐involved proinflammatory middle‐aged ovaries.

Abstract Background Age-related diminished ovarian reserve (AR-DOR) reduced the quality of oocytes, resulting in decreased female fertility. Aging is tightly related to abnormal distribution and function mitochondria, while mitophagy a major process maintain normal quantity mitochondria cells, especially oocytes which containing large number meet demand energy production during oocyte maturation subsequent embryonic development. Ampk/FoxO3a signaling crucial regulation mitophagy. It reported mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can improve function. Here we aim explore if human amnion-derived (hAMSCs) are effective improving AR-DOR mice whether involved. Methods The model were established by 32-week-old with 3–8 litters, significantly low serum sex hormone levels follicle counts. old divided into 5 treatment groups: saline (NS, control), 1% albumin (HSA, resolver), dose (LD, 5.0 × 10 6 cells/kg), middle (MD, 7.5 high (HD, 10.0 cells/kg). prepared hAMSCs injected through tail vein.
