Abstract:This study adopted an IF feeding method to investigate the effects and mechanisms of this dietary approach on ovarian function in mice,aiming to provide a theoretical basis for livestock reproduction management. In this study,8-week-old female C57BL/6J mice with similar body weights were randomly divided into two groups: one group served as the normal diet control group (ND),while the other group was subjected to a cyclic pattern of“1 day of restricted feeding ( 70% feed intake)-1 day of free feeding”to establish an intermittent mild fasting (IMF) mouse model. The growth performance of the mice was measured,and ovarian function as well as the expression of autophagy-related proteins were detected through Western blot (WB)and immunohistochemistry experiments. The results showed that IMF could significantly reduce the feed-to-gain ratio (82.85± 2.68&.93.02±7.40) )and abdominal fat index ( 1.49±0.118.1.72±0.19) . At the same time,the autophagy markers LC3 II /LC3 I (1.06±0.12& 0.89±0.02) and reproductive function proteins BMP-15(1.05±0.08& 0.75±0.10)and GDF-9 (0.53±0.02 & 0.44±0.02 )were upregulated. The mechanism study showed that IMF activated autophagy by inhibiting mTOR pathway p-mTOR/mTOR0.82±0.10&0.97±0.05) ,and then improved ovarian function. This study is the first to elucidate the mechanism by which IMF enhances ovarian function through autophagy activation, offering a potential non-pharmaceutical strategy for developing reproductive regulation techniques in livestock.
