摘要

Abstract The immune system plays a major role in ovarian physiology by regulating the ovarian follicle pool through complex signaling of different growth factors, cytokines, and chemokines. These may promote follicle activation and further growth but could also trigger follicle atresia and clearance of aging or damaged cells within the ovarian cortex. Moreover, extraglandular steroidogenesis potentially occurring in different immune cells like macrophages and natural killer cells might be another way of modulating follicle growth. Ovarian macrophages have recently been found to contain two different populations, namely resident macrophages and monocyte-derived cells, with potentially different roles. The immune system also plays a role in the development of pathological conditions, including premature ovarian insufficiency (POI). Indeed, autoimmune activation against various ovarian antigen targets results in lymphocytic oophoritis mainly targeting early growing follicles, but later leading to complete follicle pool depletion. Immune-mediated ovarian damage may also be caused by viral infection or be the consequence of iatrogenic damage. Certain novel cancer immunotherapies like checkpoint inhibitors have recently been shown to induce ovarian reserve damage in a murine model. Studies are needed to corroborate these findings and further investigate the potential of newly developed immunotherapies to treat POI. Technological advances such as single-cell analyses of less represented cell populations like immune cells inside the ovary are now contributing to valuable new information, which will hopefully lead to the development of new therapeutic strategies for women with fertility issues.
