Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is known as the most common endocrine disorder in women. Previously, we suggested that human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can reverse the PCOS condition by secreting factors. Here, we evaluated the therapeutic capability of MSC-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs), also known as exosomes, in both in vitro and in vivo PCOS models. Exosomes were used to treat androgen-producing H293R cells and injected in a mouse model through intraovarian and intravenous injection into a letrozole (LTZ)-induced PCOS mouse model. We assessed the effects of the exosomes on androgen-producing cells or the PCOS mouse model by analyzing steroidogenic gene expression (quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT–PCR)), body weight change, serum hormone levels, and fertility by pup delivery. Our data show the therapeutic effect of MSC-derived EVs for reversing PCOS conditions, including fertility issues. Interestingly, intravenous injection was more effective for serum glucose regulation, and an intraovarian injection was more effective for ovary restoration. Our study suggests that MSC-derived exosomes can be promising biopharmaceutics for treating PCOS conditions as a novel therapeutic option. Despite the fact that we need more validation in human patients, we may evaluate this novel treatment option for PCOS with the following clinical trials. |
