Abstract

Cancer treatments as cyclophosphamide and its active metabolites are highly gonadotoxic leading to follicle apoptosis and depletion. Considering the risk of subsequent infertility, fertility preservation is recommended. Beside the germ cells and gametes cryopreservation options, ovarian pharmacological protection during treatment appears to be very attractive. Meanwhile, the advances in the field of oncology have brought microRNAs into spotlight as a potential feature of cancer treatment. Herein, we investigated miRNAs expressions in response to chemotherapy using postnatal-day-3 (PND3) mouse ovaries. Our results revealed that several miRNAs are differently expressed during chemotherapy exposure. Amongst them, let-7a was the most profoundly downregulated and targets genes involved in crucial cellular processes including apoptosis. Thus we developed a liposome-based system to deliver the let-7a mimic in whole PND3 ovaries in vitro. We showed that let-7a mimic prevented the upregulation of genes involved in cell death and reduced the chemotherapy-induced ovarian apoptosis, suggesting that it can be an interesting target to preserve ovarian function. However, its impact on subsequent follicular development has to be further elucidated in vivo using an appropriate delivery system. In this study, we demonstrated that miRNA replacement approaches can be a useful tool to reduce chemotherapy-induced ovarian damage in the future.

摘要

癌症治疗药物如环磷酰胺及其活性代谢物具有高度的生殖毒性,导致卵泡凋亡和耗竭。考虑到随后不孕的风险,建议进行生育力保存。除了生殖细胞和配子的冷冻保存选择外,在治疗期间对卵巢进行药理学保护似乎非常有吸引力。同时,肿瘤学领域的进展使 microRNAs 成为癌症治疗的潜在特征之一。在此,我们使用产后第 3 天(PND3)的小鼠卵巢研究了化疗对 microRNAs 表达的影响。我们的结果表明,在化疗暴露期间,有几个 microRNAs 表达不同。其中,let-7a 表达下调最明显,其靶基因参与包括细胞凋亡在内的关键细胞过程。因此,我们开发了一种基于脂质体的系统,在体外将 let-7a 模拟物递送到整个 PND3 卵巢中。我们表明,let-7a 模拟物可防止参与细胞死亡的基因上调,并减少化疗引起的卵巢细胞凋亡,提示其可能是保护卵巢功能的一个有趣靶点。然而,其对随后的卵泡发育的影响需要进一步通过适当的递送系统在体内阐明。在这项研究中,我们证明了 miRNA 替代方法可能是未来减少化疗引起的卵巢损伤的有用工具。
