Abstract (original English)
Background and aims Ovum pick-up (OPU) is an intrinsic step of in vitro fertilization procedures. Nevertheless, it can cause ovarian lesions and compromise female fertility in bovines. Recently, we have shown that intraovarian injection of adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (AD-MSCs) effectively preserves ovarian function in bovines. Given that MSC-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) have been shown to recapitulate several therapeutic effects attributed to AD-MSCs and that they present logistic and regulatory advantages compared to AD-MSCs, we tested whether MSC-EVs would also be useful to treat OPU-induced lesions. Methods MSC-EVs were isolated from the secretome of bovine AD-MSCs, using ultrafiltration (UF) and ultracentrifugation methods. The MSC-EVs were characterized according to concentration and mean particle size, morphology, protein concentration and EV markers, miRNA, mRNA, long noncoding RNA profile, total RNA yield and potential for induction of the proliferation and migration of bovine ovarian stromal cells. We then investigated whether intraovarian injection of MSC-EVs obtained by UF would reduce the negative effects of acute OPU-induced ovarian lesions in bovines. To do so, 20 animals were divided into 4 experimental groups (n = 5), submitted to 4 OPU cycles and different experimental treatments including vehicle only (G1), MSC-EVs produced by 7.5 × 1
