PurposeThe main drawback of ovarian cryopreservation followed by transplantation is that a large proportion of follicles are lost after transplantation. Thus, effects of erythropoietin (EPO) and desialylated EPO administration on the frozen-thawed canine ovarian xenotransplantation were examined.MethodsThe protective and survival-promoting effects of EPO and desialylated EPO on the follicles of frozen-thawed canine ovaries after transplantation were examined using NOD-SCID mice. Frozen-thawed dog ovarian tissue with 400 U/kg of EPO or asialo EPO was placed into the ovarian bursa.ResultsAt 4 weeks after the transplantation, the ovaries were removed and subjected to histological examination. The survival rate of early primary follicles was 15.2% in the EPO group and 157.6% in the asialo EPO group, in contrast to 10.1% in the untreated group.ConclusionsThese results demonstrate that administration of asialo EPO could be effectively used to enhance the survival of the follicles of transplanted cryopreserved ovaries.
