Introduction: Ovariaan tissue transplantation preserve fertility in patiant young woman and girls after chemotherapy and radiotherapy. nevertheless, ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury occurs during the early post-transplantation days leads to increased inflammation and eventually damage to autografted tissue. Injectable platelet rich fibrin (i-PRF) is a liquid formulation of platelet rich fibrin (PRF) without the use of anti-coagulants. i-PRF is bioscaffold and contains, leukocytes, circulating stem cells, platelets and growth factors. Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) is also a strong free radical scavenger with anti-inflammatory properties. we aimed to research the effect of co-treatment i-PRF bioscaffold and ALA on the serum level of inflammatory factors such as interlukin 6, 10 (IL6,10) and Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in the mouse ovarian tissue following transplantation.
Methods: Mice were divided into three groups: control, autograft + saline (whole ovarian tissue transplanted in the gluteus superficialis muscle, saline directly injected into it), autograft + i-PRF+ ALA (first, the mice received 100 mg/kg" intraperitoneal injections of ALA, 30 minutes before transplantation than whole ovarian tissue transplanted in the gluteus superficialis muscle, i-PRF was directly injected into it ). Serum concentrations of IL-6, IL-10 and TNF-α were measured 7 days after ovary transplantation. Then the obtained data analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tuckey’s test and the means were considered significantly different at p-value < 0.05.
Results: The serum level of TNF-α and IL-6 in the autograft group increased significantly compared to the control group , while it showed a significant reduction in the autograft + i-PRF+ ALA group compared to the autograft group (p < 0.05). Moreover, Serum concentrations of IL-10 was significantly lower in the autograft group when compared to the control group, Whereas it showed a significant increase in the autograft + i-PRF+ ALA group compared to the autograft group (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: we results revealed that co-treatmentr i-PRF bioscaffold and ALA can Improve ischemic injuries in transplanted ovaries through decrease inflammatory factors.
