Icariin exerts a protective effect against d-galactose induced premature ovarian failure via promoting DNA damage repair

In this study we tested the biological function of icariin against the d-galactose induced POF. Our results demonstrated that icariin effectively attenuated ovarian injury via promoting DNA damage repair, suggesting that icariin can be developed as a protective agent against POF.
