Abstrakt: | Senescent cell number increases with age in different tissues, leading to greater senescent cell load, proinflammatory stress, and tissue dysfunction. In the current study, we tested the efficacy of senolytic drugs to reduce ovarian senescence and improve fertility in reproductive age female mice. In the first experiment, 1-month-old C57BL/6 female mice were treated every other week with D + Q (n = 24) or placebo (n = 24). At 3 and 6 months of age, female mice were mated with untreated males to evaluate pregnancy rate and litter size. In the second experiment, 6-month-old C57BL/6 female mice were treated monthly with D + Q (n = 30), fisetin (n = 30), or placebo (n = 30). Females were treated once a month until 11 months of age, then they were mated with untreated males for 30 days to evaluate pregnancy rate and litter size. In the first experiment, D + Q treatment did not affect pregnancy rate (P = 0.68), litter size (P = 0.58), or ovarian reserve (P > 0.05). Lipofuscin staining was lower in females treated with D + Q (P = 0.04), but expression of senescence genes in ovaries was similar. In the second experiment, D + Q or fisetin treatment also did not affect pregnancy rate (P = 0.37), litter size (P = 0.20), or ovarian reserve (P > 0.05). Lipofuscin staining (P = 0.008) and macrophage infiltration (P = 0.002) was lower in fisetin treated females. Overall, treatment with D + Q or fisetin did not affect ovarian reserve or fertility but did decrease some senescence markers in the ovary. (© 2024.
