Chronic fluoride (F) exposure is linked to gonadotoxicity in females, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigated fluoride-induced reprotoxicity using advanced genomic profiling. RNA-seq analysis identified significant activation of autophagy, apoptosis, and IL-17 signaling pathways fluoride-exposed female mice. To explore these mechanisms, F0 pregnant mice were exposed deionized water (control) or 100 mg/L sodium (NaF) during gestation throughout F1 generation (n = 16 females/group), covering puberty weaning maturity. NaF caused reductions body weight, organ coefficients, pathological indices, with increased ovarian autophagic vacuoles, mitochondrial injuries, elevated serum/ovary LPS levels females. qRT-PCR, fluorescent staining, biochemical assays, Western blotting confirmed signaling, autophagy. Moreover, 16S rRNA sequencing revealed gut microbiota dysbiosis NaF-exposed potentially exacerbating ovary injury via serum elevation. The could justify deteriorated its connection F-induced injury. These findings provide mechanistic insights into reprotoxicity, emphasizing interplay apoptosis disrupting cellular homeostasis suggesting potential therapeutic targets.

Aging is a degenerative, biological, time-dependent, universally conserved process thus designed as one of the highest known risk factors for morbidity and mortality. Every individual has its own aging mechanisms both environmental conditions (75%) genetics (25%) account aging. Several theories have been proposed until now but not even single theory solves this mystery. There are still some queries un-answered to scientific community regarding behind However, oxidative stress (OST) considered famous that sees mitochondria leading organelles which largely contribute process.
