Abstract

Silent information regulator 2 related enzyme 1 (SIRT1) is one of the key factors in the mechanism of calorie restriction (CR) extending lifespan of animals. The aim of the study is to investigate if CR prolongs ovarian lifespan in mice through activating SIRT1 signaling. In the present study, 21 female C57BL/6 mice were divided into three groups: the control (n = 7), CR (n = 7), and SRT1720 (n = 7) groups. After the 26-week treatment, the number of ovarian follicles at each stage was counted, and Western blot was performed. The number of surviving follicles in ovaries of the SRT1720 group was less than that of the CR group but more than that of the normal control (NC) group. The number of atretic follicles in the ovaries of the SRT1720 group was similar to that of the CR group but less than that of the NC group. The number of primordial follicles in the ovaries of the SRT1720 group was less than that of the CR group but more than that of the NC group. The numbers of primary follicles, secondary follicles, antral follicles, and corpora lutea in the SRT1720 group were similar to those in the CR group. Western blot analysis showed that the expression of SIRT1, SIRT6, FOXO3a, and NRF1 proteins was upregulated, and p53 was downregulated in both the CR group and the SRT1720 group compared to the control group. Our results indicate that CR inhibits the activation of primordial follicles and development of follicles at different stages, thus preserving the reserve of follicle pool (at least partly) through activating SIRT1 signaling.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 12 February 2023.
All research outputs
#22,759,802
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from European Journal of Medical Research
#728
of 923 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#235,571
of 274,386 outputs
Outputs of similar age from European Journal of Medical Research
#17
of 24 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 923 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.8. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 274,386 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 24 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
