description | Human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) were previously shown to effectively rescue ovarian function in a premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) mouse model. The therapeutic mechanism of hAMSC-derived exosomes (hAMSC-Exos) is not fully understood. In this study, the therapeutic mechanism involved in exosomal microRNA-320a (miR-320a) and Sirtuin 4 (SIRT4) was investigated in POI mouse ovaries oocytes and human granulosa cells (hGCs) by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS), hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and immunofluorescence experiments. hAMSC-Exos improved proliferation, inhibited apoptosis, and decreased the expression of SIRT4 and relative genes in POI hGCs and ovaries. hAMSC-Exos elevated ovarian function and prohibited SIRT4 expression in oogenesis. The therapeutic effects were attenuated when miR-320a was knocked down. hAMSC-Exos decreased the ROS levels in POI hGCs and oocytes and improved ovarian weight and litter size, except for the Exosanti-miR-320a/POI group. Finally, hAMSC-Exos reduced the SIRT4 and ROS levels in POI ovaries and hGCs. The downstream protein expression (ANT2, AMP-dependent kinase [AMPK], and L-OPA1) was downregulated in the hGCs-SIRT4KD group but disappeared in the Exosanti-miR-320a/POI group. Our study is the first to illustrate the therapeutic potential of hAMSC-Exos in POI. Exosomal miR-320 plays a key role in the hAMSC-Exos-mediated effects on ovarian function via SIRT4 signaling. |
