Activated Human Umbilical Cord Blood Platelet-Rich Plasma Enhances the Beneficial Effects of Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Chemotherapy-Induced POF Rats.

ABSTRACT: Saving the ovarian function of premature ovarian failure (POF) patients undergoing chemotherapy is an important problem in the field of reproductive medicine. At present, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HucMSCs) have been used in the treatment of POF, but the effect is still not optimal. The purpose of this study was to determine whether human umbilical cord blood platelet-rich plasma (ucPRP) enhances the beneficial effects of HucMSCs in the treatment of POF. First, we observed the effects of changes in the biological activity of ucPRP on HucMSCs in vitro. Subsequently, we tracked the distribution and function of the HucMSCs in POF rats, and the rats' estrus cycle and serum sex hormones, follicular development, ovarian angiogenesis, ovarian granulosa cell proliferation, and ap
