Ovarian Dysfunction

Thymoquinone is an orally active natural product isolated from N. sativa Thymoquinone down-regulates the VEGFR2-PI3K-Akt pathway. Thymoquinone has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antiviral, anticonvulsant, antifungal, antiviral, antiangiogenic activity and hepatoprotective effects. Thymoquinone can be used to study Alzheimer's disease, cancer, cardiovascular disease, infectious disease and inflammation .

4-Vinylcyclohexene dioxide (4-Vinylcyclohexene diepoxide) is an orally active metabolite of 4-vinylcyclohexene. 4-Vinylcyclohexene dioxide induces Apoptosis, increases intracellular ROS, and activates the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway. 4-Vinylcyclohexene dioxide selectively damages small ovarian follicles, inhibits granulosa cell function, and disrupts the male reproductive system. 4-Vinylcyclohexene dioxide can be used in the study of premature ovarian insufficiency, reproductive toxicity, and related fertility disorders.

Dimethyl phthalate (DMP) can be used as a plasticizer to impart flexibility to rigid polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resin. Additionally, Dimethyl phthalate is an oral active endocrine disruptor that can cause ovarian dysfunction in mice. Dimethyl phthalate can also induce oxidative stress and apoptosis in cells, thereby affecting blood and red blood cell function in rats.

3-Nitrophthalic acid (m-Nitrophthalic acid) is a nitro-substituted aromatic carboxylic acid that acts as a DPPH radical scavenger through hydrogen donation. 3-Nitrophthalic acid induces cellular oxidative stress and Apoptosis. 3-Nitrophthalic acid inhibits NRF2/HO-1 antioxidant signaling and impairs follicular development and ovulation. 3-Nitrophthalic acid can be used to construct functional MOF. 3-Nitrophthalic acid can be used in the study of premature ovarian insufficiency.

Murine ZP3 peptide (330-342) is a zona pellucida 3 polypeptide fragment with the amino acid sequence NSSSSQFQIHGPR. Murine ZP3 peptide (330-342) induces autoimmune premature ovarian failure (POF). Murine ZP3 peptide (330-342) can be used for the research of premature ovarian failure.
