Figure Legend Snippet: Figure 1. m6A characteristics after MT treatment in aged mice (A) Representative ovarian histology of 2-month-old mice (young), MT-fed 12- month-old mice (aged + MT), and control 12-month-old mice (Aged). The primary and secondary follicle stages (marked with PF and SF, re spectively) are marked by black arrows. Scale bars, 200 μm (upper) and 20 μm (lower). (B) Quantification of different types of follicles in ovaries from young, aged, and aged + MT mice. Primordial, primary, secondary, corpus luteum, and antral follicles (marked with PmF, PF, SF, CL, and AF, respectively) were counted. n.s., not significant; *P < 0.05. (C) Quantification of the corpus luteum in ovaries from young, aged, and aged + MT mice. (D) Violin plot showing the level of m6A in the ovaries of young, aged and aged + MT mice. n = 5, **** P < 0.0001. (E) Volcano plot showing m6A-modified differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the ovaries of aged and aged + MT mice (P value < 0.05 and fold change > 2). Down regulated (blue), upregulated (red), and unchanged (gray) genes are indicated. (F) Correlation analysis of 566 m6A DEGs among aged and aged + MT mice. (G) Gene Ontology (GO), KEGG, and Reactome (REAC) pathway analyses of m6A-modified differentially expressed genes. (H) GSEA pathway analysis of the cell cycle. (I,J) Immunofluorescence staining of ovarian GCs from young, aged and aged + MT mice, showing YTHDF2 (red) and DAPI (blue). Scale bar, 50 μm. ***P < 0.001.
Techniques Used: Control, Modification, Immunofluorescence, Staining
Figure Legend Snippet: Figure 2. MT downregulates m6A levels in KGN cells by increasing YTHDF2 expression (A,B) Cell senescence was detected by SA-β-galacto sidase (SA-β-gal) staining in KGN cells under different conditions: without H2O2 (NC), with H2O2 treatment (400 μM, 12 h), and with H2O2 treatment in the presence of MT (300 μM, 12 h). Scale bar, 40 μm. (C, D) KGN cell apoptosis was detected via terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining. Scale bar, 50 μm.

(H, I) Western blot analysis of YTHDF2 expression in scramble control, YTHDF2 knockdown (shYTHDF2) and MT-treated (300 μM, 12 h) KGN cells in the absence of H2O2 exposure. (J, K) Cell senescence was detected by SA-β-gal staining in scramble control-, shYTHDF2- and MT-treated KGN cells in the absence of H2O2 exposure. Scale bar, 40 μm. (L,M) Cell senescence detected by SA-β-gal staining in NC, H2O2-treated, and YTHDF2- overexpressing KGN cells under H2O2 exposure. Scale bar, 40 μm.
