Ovarian aging-associated downregulation of GPX4 expression regulates ovarian follicular development by affecting granulosa cell functions and oocyte quality.
Hu J, Wang H, Fang J, Jiang R, Kong Y, Zhang T, Yang G, Jin H, Shi S, Song N, Qi L, Huang X, Wu Z, Yao G. Hu J, et al. FASEB J. 2025 Mar 31;39(6):e70469. doi: 10.1096/fj.202401580RR. FASEB J. 2025. PMID: 40100097
In the physiological state, female fertility declines with age, as evidenced by a steady decline in oocyte quantity and quality. Aging of the first organ, the ovary, is accompanied by increased oxidative stress levels in the ovary, causing a decline in the ovarian r …
