    Author: Nejabati HR, Roshangar L, Nouri M.

    Abstract:
    The decrease in the reproductive potential due to aging occurs as a gradual decline in the quantity and quality of the ovarian reserve, a phenomenon associated with risk of miscarriage, pregnancy loss, low ovarian stimulation, and oocyte abnormalities, such as chromosomal aneuploidies. Numerous studies have shown that the fertility potential of older women is decreased by changes to the cellular composition of the follicles. Additionally, a unique method of cellular communication has been identified which involves the release of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in various body fluids including follicular fluid (FF). The changing composition of EVs especially non-coding RNAs, such as miRNAs has been documented across a broad range of cell types during aging. Accordingly, alterations of miRNA cargo within FF-derived EVs due to increased age may serve as a potential predictor of oocyte quality. In this review we examine the relationship between FF EV miRNAs and ovarian aging.
