Chemotherapy-induced ovarian damage represents a major challenge for women of reproductive age undergoing cancer treatments. In mice, nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) enhances the developmental competence of aged oocytes by preventing oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis, however its potential to restore oocyte quality following chemotherapy-induced ovarian damage remains unexplored. To investigate the effects of NMN treatment against the deleterious effects of chemotherapy and aging in mice and human oocytes. We used mouse models with different degrees of chemotherapy-induced ovarian damage, mimicking diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) and premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), and young-healthy females as a reference group. Mice of each ovarian condition were treated with or without 2g/L NMN in drinking water for a complete cycle (4 weeks) or during the later stages (14 days) of folliculogenesis. After treatments, mice underwent ovarian hyperstimulation and were euthanized to collect ovaries and oocytes to evaluate follicular counts, oocyte quality, and maturation. Part of the collected metaphase II oocytes underwent in vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryo culture to assess preimplantation embryo development. Finally, we also explored the benefits of in vitro NMN supplementation in aged infertile patients using germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes from advance maternal age (AMA >38) and young (≤35 years old) women. Maturation and artificial oocyte activation potential were assessed following the GV rescue approach. NMN supplementation over a complete folliculogenesis cycle (4 weeks) improved the quality of oocytes exposed to chemotherapy by recovering nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide levels (p = 0.006), redistributing mitochondria to promote proper meiotic spindle assembly, and ultimately, recovering fertilization rate (p = 0.003) in DOR mice. In the POI model, reduced reactive oxygen species abundance (p = 0.039), increased mitochondria quantity (p = 0.030), and improved expression of the DNA repair gene Apex1 were found, thereby enhancing proper meiotic spindle formation and chromosome alignment. Similarly, when NMN supplementation was restricted to the later stages of folliculogenesis (14 days), positive effects on oocyte quality were observed, though to a lesser extent. Increased NAD+ levels (p ˂0.001) and embryo development rates (p = 0.048) were found in the DOR group, while reduced ROS abundance (p = 0.040), and increased mitochondrial DNA copy number (p = 0.006) and DNA repair gene expression (Apex1: p = 0.041; Alkbh2: p = 0.029) were observed in POI mice. Finally, in vitro NMN supplementation was able to improve the nuclear competence (p = 0.039) and parthenogenetic activation of immature oocytes from women with AMA (>38 years old). These results highlight the regenerative role of NMN in mouse and human oocytes exposed to the deleterious effects of chemotherapy and aging, representing a potential therapeutic alternative for fertility preservation and aged patients seeking to achieve motherhood with autologous oocytes.
El presente texto titulado Didáctica y neurocognición de la comunicación oral y escrita para aprender lengua extranjera conduce al lector a la comprensión de la didáctica de la mediación constructivista y la neurocognición del aprendizaje de lengua extranjera y en ese propósito los autores dejan claridad del propósito al precisar que conlleva un proceso de autorregulación en el aprendiz, por lo que esa dinámica, apunta a generar un proceso autónomo en los estudiantes.
La conizacion es una intervencion diagnostico-terapeutica que se utiliza para extirpar
un fragmento del cuello uterino que incluya la zona de transformacion o ZT, ubicacion
en la que se origina la mayor parte de los canceres de cervix.
Con este trabajo se pretende hacer un breve recordatorio sobre el VPH y el cancer
de cervix, su prevencion, diagnostico y tratamiento quirurgico, centrandonos en la
escision amplia de la ZT con asa de diatermia o LLETZ. Se trata de una intervencion
quirurgica sin caracter de urgencia que generalmente no requiere ingreso hospitalario
de mas de un dia, y cuya recuperacion suele ser indolora.
Tambien se explica como realizar el marcaje de la pieza extirpada para el analisis
citopatologico, las contraindicaciones de esta intervencion y la mayor incidencia de
parto prematuro en mujeres que han sido intervenidas previamente
