Abstract

The increase in follicular atresia and the decrease in the fecundity of laying hens occur with the aging process. Therefore, the key measure for maintaining high laying performance is to alleviate follicular atresia in the aging poultry. Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), as an important pituitary hormone to promote follicle development and maturation, plays an important role in preventing reproductive aging in diverse animals. In this study, the physiological state of the prehierarchical small white follicles (SWFs) and atretic SWFs (ASWFs) were compared, followed by an exploration of the possible capacity of FSH to delay ASWFs' progression in the hens. The results showed that the DNA damage within follicles increased with aging, along with Golgi complex disintegration, cell cycle arrest, increased apoptosis and autophagy in the ASWFs. Subsequently, the ACNU-induced follicular atresia model was established to evaluate the enhancing capacity of FSH on increasing cell proliferation and attenuating apoptosis in ASWFs. FSH inhibited DNA damage and promoted DNA repair by regulating the CHK2/p53 pathway. Furthermore, FSH inhibited CHK2/p53, thus, suppressing the disintegration of the Golgi complex, cell cycle arrest, and increased autophagy in the atretic follicles. Moreover, these effects from FSH treatment in ACNU-induced granulosa cells were similar to the treatment by a DNA repair agent AV-153. These results indicate that FSH protects aging-resulted DNA damage in granulosa cells by inhibiting CHK2/p53 in chicken prehierarchical follicles.
