Local delivery of platelet-derived factors mitigates ischemia and preserves ovarian function through angiogenic modulation: A personalized regenerative strategy for fertility preservation.

As the most prominent and ideal modality in female fertility preservation, ovarian tissue cryopreservation, and transplantation often confront the challenge of ischemic damage and follicular loss from avascular transplantation. To surmount this impediment, we engineered a novel platelet-derived factors-encapsulated fibrin hydrogel (PFH), a paradigmatic biomaterial. PFH encapsulates autologous platelet-derived factors, utilizing the physiological blood coagulation cascade for precise local delivery of bioactive molecules. In our study, PFH markedly bolstered the success of avascular ovarian tissue transplantation. Notably, the quantity and quality of follicles were preserved with improved neovascularization, accompanied by decreased DNA damage, increased ovulation, and superior embryonic development rates under a Low-concentration Platelet-rich plasma-derived factors encapsulated fibrin hydrogel (L-PFH) regimen. At a stabilized point of tissue engraftment, gene expression analysis mirrored normal ovarian tissue profiles, underscoring the effectiveness of L-PFH in mitigating the initial ischemic insult. This autologous blood-derived biomaterial, inspired by nature, capitalizes on the blood coagulation cascade, and combines biodegradability, biocompatibility, safety, and cost-effectiveness. The adjustable properties of this biomaterial, even in injectable form, extend its potential applications into the broader realm of personalized regenerative medicine. PFH emerges as a promising strategy to counter ischemic damage in tissue transplantation, signifying a broader therapeutic prospect. (197 words).
