Abstract
The effects of desflurane on endothelium-dependent vasodilation remain uncertain, whereas sevoflurane is known to inhibit it. Endothelium-dependent vasodilation is mainly mediated by endothelial nitric oxide synthase. The effects of desflurane on endothelium-dependent vasodilation were compared with those of sevoflurane, and inhibition mechanisms, including phosphorylation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase and the calcium pathway, were evaluated for the two anesthetics. We hypothesized that desflurane would inhibit endothelium-dependent vasodilation in a concentration-dependent manner more than sevoflurane, with inhibition of a calcium pathway. Isolated rat aortic rings were randomly assigned to treatment with desflurane or sevoflurane for measurements of the vasodilation ratio. To determine NO production with desflurane and sevoflurane, an in vitro assay was performed with cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells. These cells were also used for measurement of intracellular calcium or Western blotting. For endothelium-dependent vasodilation, the ratio of vasodilation was more significantly inhibited by 11.4% desflurane than by 4.8% sevoflurane. Inhibition did not between 5.7% desflurane and 2.4% sevoflurane. No inhibitory effect of desflurane or sevoflurane was observed in endothelium-denuded aorta. Desflurane inhibited nitric oxide production caused by stimulation of bradykinin significantly more than sevoflurane. Desflurane had a greater suppressive effect on the bradykinin-induced increase in intracellular calcium concentration than did sevoflurane. Sevoflurane, but not desflurane, inhibited phosphorylation of the serine 1177 residue by bradykinin stimulation. Desflurane inhibited endothelium-dependent vasodilation more than sevoflurane through inhibition of a calcium pathway. Sevoflurane inhibited endothelium-dependent vasodilation by inhibition of phosphorylation of the serine 1177 residue of endothelial nitric oxide synthase.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between flow-mediated dilatation of the brachial artery and serum endothelial biomarkers and to discuss the feasibility of sonographic evaluation of acute endothelial injury during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery. METHODS Sonography was applied to determine the percentage of change in the brachial artery size during flow-mediated dilatation. Meanwhile, the plasma concentrations of endothelial-derived biomarkers, such as endothelin 1, nitric oxide, and von Willebrand factor, were measured to monitor the changes in endothelial function. We analyzed the correlation between flow-mediated dilatation and biomarkers during the perioperative period of CPB in 27 patients. RESULTS All of the biomarkers changed dramatically, especially during the CPB period. There was a negative correlation between flow-mediated dilatation and von Willebrand factor (P = .001; R = -0.31). CONCLUSIONS A CPB event has a substantial impact on endothelial function, and sonographic assessment of the percentage of change in the brachial artery size during flow-mediated dilatation allows early detection of acute endothelial function injury in cardiac surgery.

Intravenous Infusion of Dexmedetomidine Combined Isoflurane Inhalation Reduces Oxidative Stress and Potentiates Hypoxia Pulmonary Vasoconstriction during One-Lung Ventilation in Patients. Mediators Inflamm 2015; 2015:238041.

Abstract
Inhalation anesthetic isoflurane inhibits hypoxia pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV), while dexmedetomidine (Dex) could reduce the dose of isoflurane inhalation and potentiate HPV, but the mechanism is unclear. Inhibition of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production can favor HPV during one-lung ventilation (OLV). Similarly, nitric oxide (NO), an important endothelium-derived vasodilator in lung circulation, can decrease the regional pulmonary vascular resistance of ventilated lung and reduce intrapulmonary shunting. We hypothesized that Dex may augment HPV and improve oxygenation during OLV through inhibiting oxidative stress and increasing NO release. Patients undergoing OLV during elective thoracic surgery were randomly allocated to either isoflurane + saline (NISO, n = 24) or isoflurane + dexmedetomidine (DISO, n = 25) group. Anesthesia was maintained with intravenous remifentanil and inhalational isoflurane (1.0–2.0%), with concomitant infusion of dexmedetomidine 0.7 μgkg−1h−1 in DISO and saline 0.25 mL kg−1h−1 in NISO group. Hemodynamic variables or depth of anesthesia did not significantly differ between groups. Administration of Dex significantly reduced Qs/Qt and increased PaO2 after OLV, accompanied with reduced lipid peroxidation product malondialdehyde and higher levels of SOD activity as well as serum NO (all P < 0.05 DISO versus NISO). In conclusion, reducing oxidative stress and increasing NO release during OLV may represent a mechanism whereby Dex potentiates HPV.

Abstract
Pneumatic tourniquets are widely used in pediatric extremity surgery to provide a bloodless field and facilitate dissection. This prospective study was carried out to examine possible effect of different anesthesia techniques on oxidative stress and endothelial dysfunction connected with ischemia-reperfusion injury during extremity operations at children's age. Patients were randomized into three groups of 15 patients each: general inhalational anesthesia with sevoflurane (group S), total intravenous anesthesia with propofol (group T) and regional anesthesia (group R). Venous blood samples for determination of the malondialdehyde in plasma and erythrocytes, protein carbonyl groups concentration as well as plasma nitrites and nitrates level and xanthine oxidase activity were obtained at four time points: before peripheral nerve block and induction of general anesthesia (baseline), 1 min before tourniquet release, 5 and 20 min after tourniquet release. This study demonstrates that total intravenous anesthesia with propofol and regional anesthesia techniques provide better antioxidant defense and reduce endothelial dysfunction than general inhalational anesthesia with sevoflurane during tourniquet application in pediatric extremity surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects and mechanisms of action of volatile anesthetics on the feto-placental vasculature are not known. We aimed to quantify the vasoactive effects of sevoflurane and determine the role of nitric oxide (NO) and of vasoactive eicosanoids in mediating these effects in isolated human chorionic plate arterial rings. METHODS Quadruplicate ex vivo human chorionic plate arterial rings were used in all studies. Series 1 quantified the vasodilation produced by sevoflurane in rings preconstricted with the thromboxane analog U46619. Series 2A-C examined the role of NO in sevoflurane-mediated vasodilation. In separate experiments, we examined the potential for the nonspecific NO inhibitors, L-NAME, L-nMMA, and the inactive D-NAME, to modulate the vasodilation produced by sevoflurane. Series 2D determined whether sevoflurane altered vascular smooth muscle sensitivity to exogenous NO. Series 3A-D examined the role of vasoactive eicosanoids in sevoflurane-mediated vasodilation. In separate experimental series, we examined whether the nonspecific cyclooxygenase inhibitor, indomethacin, or the 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor, nordihydroguaiaretic acid, modulated sevoflurane-mediated vasodilation. RESULTS Sevoflurane produced dose-dependent vasodilation of preconstricted chorionic plate arterial rings, with mean ring vasodilation increasing from 15 +/- 7% at 2% sevoflurane to 67 +/- 17% (mean +/- sd) at 8% sevoflurane. Blockade of NO synthase did not attenuate the vasodilator effects of sevoflurane. Sevoflurane did not alter smooth muscle sensitivity to NO. Indomethacin augmented sevoflurane vasodilation at 10(-5) M, but not at 10(-6) M. Conversely, nordihydroguaiaretic acid attenuated sevoflurane-mediated vasodilation at 3 x 10(-6) M but not at 3 x 10(-7) M. CONCLUSIONS Sevoflurane was a vasodilator in the feto-placental vasculature in this in vitro model. Sevoflurane-mediated vasodilation is NO and cyclooxygenase-independent and appears to be mediated in part via a lipoxygenase generated vasodilator eicosanoid.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sevoflurane is a fluorinated volatile anaesthetic agent that lowers arterial pressure, in part by vasodilation. We previously showed, in rat lungs, that sevoflurane affected the expression of endothelin-1 (ET-1), a potent vasoconstrictor peptide. Therefore, we hypothesized that the vasodilation induced by sevoflurane involved vasodilatory and vasoconstrictor components. METHODS Rats were anaesthetized with sevoflurane 4% for 0, 2, and 6 h (n=9 each group) before death. In addition, a further group (n=9) were anaesthetized for 6 h then awoken for 2 h before death (n=9). We measured expression of mRNA encoding ET-1, nitric oxide synthase-1, 2, 3 (NOS1, 2, 3), haeme oxygenase-1, 2 (HO-1, 2), adrenomedullin (ADM), calcitonin gene-related peptide, vasoactive intestinal peptide, and prostacyclin synthase in whole lung using real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS Expressions of ET-1 and ADM were significantly increased by inhalation of sevoflurane for 2 and 6 h (P<0.05). Expression of NOS3 was significantly increased at 6 h (P<0.05). After awaking from anaesthesia, the expressions of NOS3, ET-1, and ADM returned to baseline levels. CONCLUSIONS Sevoflurane increased the expressions of ET-1, NOS3, and ADM. Our results suggest that the increased expressions of NOS3 and ADM may counteract that of ET-1 and so regulate pulmonary circulation under sevoflurane anaesthesia.

Abstract
Sevoflurane is an inhalation anesthetic used for general anesthesia. Several studies have demonstrated that reactive oxygen species (ROS) exist in cardioprotection when preconditioned with sevoflurane. Moreover, sevoflurane can also directly trigger the formation of peroxynitrite. Up to now, information pertinent to the effect of sevoflurane on cellular injuries in human polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) is scant. In this study, we demonstrated that sevoflurane significantly increases intracellular H2O2 and/or peroxide, superoxide, and nitric oxide (NO) in PMN within 1h treatment. Intensification of intracellular glutathione (GSH) depletion in PMN has been demonstrated with the presence of sevoflurane. Inhibition of sevoflurane-mediated intracellular H2O2 and/or peroxide in PMN by catalase, mannitol, dexamethasone, N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and trolox, but not superoxide dismutase (SOD) pretreatment, was observed. Among them, catalase has the best effect scavenging intracellular H2O2 and/or peroxide, suggesting that H2O2 is the major ROS during sevoflurane treatment. Two apoptotic critical factors-lowering of the mitochondrial transmembrane potential (DeltaPsim) and activation of caspase 3/7-were significantly increased after 1h of sevoflurane treatment. Apoptosis of PMN were determined by comet assay and flow cytometric analysis of annexin V-FITV protein binding to the cell surface. Exposure of PMN to sevoflurane markedly increased apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner. In summary, these results are important for demonstrating the oxidative stress and cellular injury on sevoflurane-treated human PMN.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Nitroglycerin (TNG) tolerance, defined as an impaired vasodilation response to TNG, has been recently demonstrated to be associated with increased production of reactive species. We designed this study to investigate the mechanisms that mediate TNG tolerance and to compare the effects of sevoflurane and isoflurane on the development of TNG tolerance. Tension changes in rat aortic rings without endothelium were recorded. The cumulative relaxant responses to TNG (10(-8)-10(-5) M) were assessed in phenylephrine-contracted rings. To induce TNG tolerance, the rings were then incubated in the bathing solution containing TNG (10(-5) M) for 30 min in the presence or absence of each anesthetic (1 to 3 MAC). After washout of TNG and anesthetic, the second response to TNG was obtained. Some rings were pretreated with oxygen radical scavengers or sulfhydryl supplements. The first and the second responses to TNG were compared. Sevoflurane at 3 MAC, but not sevoflurane at smaller concentrations or isoflurane, enhanced TNG tolerance when administered in combination with TNG. Sevoflurane alone had no effect on TNG tolerance. The enhancement of TNG tolerance in the case of a combined sevoflurane and TNG treatment was inhibited in the presence of oxygen radical scavengers or at a smaller oxygen concentration (25%). Sevoflurane at a concentration of 3 MAC in hyperoxic condition enhances the development of TNG tolerance, possibly by additive generation of superoxide anions or hydroxyl radicals within vascular smooth muscle. IMPLICATIONS The effects of sevoflurane and isoflurane on the development of nitroglycerin (TNG) tolerance were investigated in isolated rat aorta. TNG tolerance was induced by incubation of the vascular tissue in the bathing media containing TNG (10-5 M) for 30 min. Sevoflurane, but not isoflurane, enhances TNG tolerance, possibly by additive generation of oxygen-derived free radicals.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We hypothesized that the protective effects of isoflurane (ISO) pretreatment on the vasculature may be attributed, in part, to altered leukocyte-endothelial interactions. Rats were anesthetized with pentobarbital and then randomized into four groups: control, ISO-control (pretreatment with 30 min of 1.4% ISO), lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 10 mg/kg IV), and ISO-LPS (ISO pretreatment and then LPS). The mesentery was prepared for intravital videomicroscopy. Mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), along with microcirculatory variables that included postcapillary venular and arteriolar blood flow velocity and leukocyte dynamics (number of rolling and adherent leukocytes and individual rolling leukocyte velocities), were measured hourly (baseline and at 0-4 h). In LPS rats, ISO pretreatment significantly (P < 0.05) attenuated the decrease in MAP at 2 and 4 h after LPS and increased leukocyte rolling velocities after 2-4 h. Four hours after LPS, leukocyte rolling velocities were >200% more rapid (63.7 +/- 27.6 microm/s versus 19.8 +/- 6.4 micro m/s) in ISO-LPS versus LPS rats. In control rats, ISO pretreatment had no effect on MAP or leukocyte rolling velocities but increased the number of rolling leukocytes. ISO pretreatment had no effect on arteriolar and postcapillary venular blood flow velocity in LPS rats or leukocyte adherence in LPS or control rats. In conclusion, ISO pretreatment supported hemodynamics and increased leukocyte rolling velocities but did not alter the number of rolling or adherent leukocytes in the mesenteric microcirculation during LPS-induced inflammation. IMPLICATIONS Isoflurane pretreatment supported hemodynamics and increased leukocyte rolling velocities in the mesenteric microcirculation during lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation. Faster rolling velocities may reduce the incidence of inflammation by decreasing leukocyte-endothelial interactions and cellular injury.
