Radiation and chemotherapy can damage the primordial follicle reserve in female cancer patients leading to ovarian failure and infertility. Preservation of ovarian function requires treatment strategies that prevent loss of immature oocytes in primordial follicles during cancer therapy. Checkpoint kinase 2 (CHEK2) inhibition prevents loss of primordial oocytes caused by DNA damage and thus is a promising target for ovoprotective treatment against genotoxic agents. To determine which cancer treatments could benefit from ovoprotective activity of CHEK2 inhibition we investigated oocyte survival in Chek2-/- mice exposed to different chemotherapy drugs. Here, we show that loss of CHEK2 function prevents elimination of primordial oocytes damaged by cisplatin, cyclophosphamide, mafosfamide, doxorubicin, and etoposide, suggesting it could be used to reduce ovarian damage caused by wide range of drugs. Using genetic knockouts we reveal a critical role for TRP53 in oocyte response to chemotherapy drugs and show that both targets of CHEK2, TAp63 and TRP53, are activated by cisplatin and cyclophosphamide. Furthermore, we show that checkpoint kinase inhibitor and radiation- and chemotherapy sensitizer AZD7762 reduces oocyte elimination after radiation and chemotherapy treatments, despite its cytotoxic effect on ovarian somatic cells. Altogether, these findings demonstrate the role for CHEK2 as the master regulator of primordial oocyte survival or death and credential its targeting for ovoprotective treatments.
