Project description:There are at least two waves of follicle development in mammals. Wave 1 follicle development occurs as early as postnatal day 0 (P0) in mice, when follicles are formed. Wave 2 follicles become primordial follicles, which are gradually recruited in older mice and persist throughout the animal's reproductive life. The wave 1 follicles reach the antral stage by 3 weeks and can be ovulated when treated with hormones, although this does not normally occur in natural development. Despite this phenomenon being known for decades, the functions of wave 1 follicles remain unclear, particularly if they do not provide mature, healthy oocytes. Through single-cell RNA sequencing, we found that androgens, rather than estrogens, are the main hormones produced during these stages. We also observed that wave 1 follicles generate hormone producing theca cells and related interstitial gland cells to produce androgens, which may be important for puberty onset and the development of the ovary, brain, and other tissues. In this database, we present data from single-cell RNA sequencing of ovarian cells from mice aged 2 to 6 weeks, collected weekly.

Project description:In this study, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) on MAIT cells extracted from the intestines of young and aged mice. For each age group, MAIT cells from five individual mice were pooled before sequencing.

Project description:Total RNA was isolated from FACS purified CD11c+ splenic DC populations isolated from young (8 weeks old, n=3) and aged (110 weeks old, n=3) mice, that had been injected with Poly I:C for 4h previously. Microarray analysis was performed with the Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Arrays. The arrays were hybridized, washed and scanned according to the standard Affymetrix protocol. The gene chip tests were performed by professional staff of Shanghai Biochip Company, PRC. Gene expression profiles and functional gene set enrichment analysis demonstrate that DC isolated aged mice are impaired in their ability to activate Natural Killer (NK) cells. The study is submitted for publication in June 2014.

Project description:Macrophages are important modulators of the ovarian tissue microenvironment, and are associated with the ovarian aging process. To dissect the changes of macrophages during ovarian aging, we used a combination of single cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) and flow cytometry to inspect the CD45+ CD11b+ myeloid cells in young (3 months old) and aged (15 months old) murine ovaries, which mainly consists of macrophages, monocytes and dendritic cells.

Project description:Samul-tang (SM), a traditional herbal medicine is used to treat menstrual irregularities and infertility. The mechanism underlying the role of SM in ovary function needs elucidation. In this study, the influence of SM administration on the ovarian reserve of aged mice was investigated. Female BALB/c mice (8 and 40 weeks-old) were administered with distilled water (young or old group) or SM for 4 weeks. SM administration prevented age-related ovarian follicle loss in mice. Quality of oocytes and blastocysts were enhanced in SM-administrated mice compared to those of non-treated old mice. Further, SM administration increased the pregnancy rate and number of litters. SM triggered changes in aging-related genes that are linked to the RAS-mediated pathway. Thus, we demonstrate that SM can be used to increase the oocyte yield in aged women, potentially improving age-related cognitive decline in the ovarian reserve.

Project description:Molecular mechanisms of ovarian aging and female age-related fertility decline remain unclear. We surveyed the single-cell transcriptomic landscape of ovaries from young and aged non-human primates (NHPs) and identified seven ovarian cell types with distinct gene expression signatures, including oocyte and six types of ovarian somatic cells. In-depth dissection of gene expression dynamics of oocytes revealed four subtypes at sequential and stepwise developmental stages. Further analysis of cell type-specific aging-associated transcriptional changes uncovered the disturbance of antioxidant signaling specific to early-stage oocytes and granulosa cells, indicative of oxidative damage as a crucial factor in ovarian functional decline with age. Additionally, inactivated antioxidative pathways, increased reactive oxygen species and apoptosis were observed in granulosa cells from aged women. This study provides comprehensive understanding of the cell type-specific mechanisms underlying primate ovarian aging at single-cell resolution, revealing new diagnostic biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets for age-related human ovarian disorders.

Project description:Ovarian senescence impacts reproductive health and accelerates the overall aging process. Despite extensive research in this area there is still a dearth of effective therapeutic strategies. We here report the rejuvenating effects of HEP14, a natural activator of PKC pathway, on aged ovarian function. Further, we detail a method to fabricate HEP14-loaded PLGA microspheres designed for controlled and sustained drug release in vivo. Transcriptomic analysis revealed a significant overlap between the transcriptional profiles of HEP14-treated aged ovaries and those of adult ovaries, suggesting molecular rejuvenation process. Histopathological evaluations following treatment demonstrated that HEP14 not only enhances mitophagy but also exhibits antioxidative properties and promotes follicular regeneration. As a result, ovarian endocrine function was ultimately restored in aged mice, evident in raised serum levels of E2, AMH, Inhibin A/B and lowered FSH levels. In vitro studies further showcased restorative effect of HEP14 on enhancement of mitophagy and mitochondrial function by the activation of the PKC-ERK1/2 pathway in senescent GCs, which are integral to the action mechanism of HEP14. These findings pave the way for new therapeutic approaches for developing therapeutic strategies aimed at improving reproductive health in aging individuals.
