Abstract (original English)

Background Adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) derived exosomes have been widely studied in disease treatment. Exosomes are able to deliver bioactive molecules, including non-coding RNAs and proteins. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are non-coding RNAs longer than 200 nucleotides and are enriched in exosomes. This work aimed to explore the effects of lncRNA KLF3 antisense RNA 1 (KLF3-AS1) that delivered by ADSC-derived exosomes on ovarian aging. Methods ADSCs were isolated and characterized with the surface biomarkers. Exosomes were isolated from ADSCs. The biomarkers of ADSC-derived exosomes were identified using western blotting. Exosomes were labeled with PKH26 and internalized by primary granulosa cells (pGCs), and relative images were taken under fluorescence microscope. ADSCs were transfected with KLF3-AS1, and exosomes were isolated for treatment of aging female mice. The ovary weight was recorded. The follicular development was measured by Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and Masson's trichrome staining. Apoptosis of ovary tissues was detected by TUNEL assay. The senescence and apoptosis of pGCs were determined by S-β-gal staining kit and Annexin V/PI detection kit. RNA pulldown and RNA Immunoprecipitation Chip (RIP) assay were performed to determine the interaction of Y box binding protein 1 (YBX1) with KLF3-AS1. Results The ADSC-derived exosomes could deliver KLF3-AS1
