Abstract
Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) has far-reaching consequences on women's life quality. Due to the lack of full recognition of the etiology and complexity of this disease, there is no appropriate treatment for infected patients. Recently, stem cell therapy has attracted the attention of regenerative medicine scholars and offered promising outcomes for POI patients. Several kinds of stem cells, such as embryonic stem cells (ESCs), mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have been used for the treatment of ovarian diseases. However, their potential protective mechanisms are still unknown. Undoubtedly, a better understanding of the therapeutic molecular and cellular mechanisms of stem cells will address uncover strategies to increase their clinical application for multiple disorders such as POI. This paper describes a detailed account of the potential properties of different types of stem cells and provides a comprehensive review of their protective mechanisms, particularly MSC, in POI disorder. In addition, ongoing challenges and several strategies to improve the efficacy of MSC in clinical use are addressed. Therefore, this review will provide proof-of-concept for further clinical application of stem cells in POI.
