The cumulative effect is elevated oxidative stress within ovarian follicles, as evidenced by increased malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in ovarian homogenates of HFD-fed murine models ( Different studies underscored the role of adipose-derived inflammatory mediators in driving oxidative stress under HFD conditions, linking them to follicular dysfunction and a reduced ovarian reserve ( Additional studies also report that chronic inflammation impairs key intracellular signaling cascades, such as PI3K/Akt and mTOR, in granulosa cells, thereby promoting ROS accumulation and impairing follicular maturation ( Altogether, these findings indicate that HFD-induced metabolic inflammation is a central mechanism underlying ROS-mediated ovarian damage
