Abstract
BACKGROUND Physiological studies suggest that the interstitial space contains 2 fluid compartments, but no analysis has been performed to quantify their sizes and turnover rates. METHODS Retrospective data were retrieved from 270 experiments where Ringer's solution of between 238 and 2750 mL (mean, 1487 mL) had been administered by intravenous infusion to awake and anesthetized humans (mean age 39 years, 47% females). Urinary excretion and hemoglobin-derived plasma dilution served as input variables in a volume kinetic analysis using mixed-models software. RESULTS The kinetic analysis successfully separated 2 interstitial fluid compartments. One equilibrated rapidly with the plasma and the other equilibrated slowly. General anesthesia doubled the rate constants for fluid entering these 2 compartments (from 0.072 to 0.155 and from 0.026 to 0.080 min -1 , respectively). The return flows to the plasma were impeded by intensive fluid therapy; the rate constant for the fast-exchange compartment decreased from 0.251 to 0.050 when the infusion time increased from 15 to 60 minutes, and the rate constant for the slow-exchange compartment decreased from 0.019 to 0.005 when the infused volume increased from 500 to 1500 mL. The slow-exchange compartment became disproportionately expanded when larger fluid volumes were infused and even attained an unphysiologically large size when general anesthesia was added, suggesting that the flow of fluid was restrained and not solely determined by hydrostatic and oncotic forces. The dependence of the slow-exchange compartment on general anesthesia, crystalloid infusion rate, and infusion volume all suggest a causal physiological process. CONCLUSIONS Kinetic analysis supported that Ringer's solution distributes in 2 interstitial compartments with different turnover times. The slow compartment became dominant when large amounts of fluid were infused and during general anesthesia. These findings may explain why fluid accumulates in peripheral tissues during surgery and why infused fluid can remain in the body for several days after general anesthesia.

Abstract
Use of volatile anesthetics is associated with worse outcome following tumor resection surgery compared with the use of intravenous anesthetics. However, the underlying mechanism has not been clearly delineated yet in vivo. The EO771 cell-based congenic breast cancer model was used in the present study. Isoflurane directly binds to and inhibits two adhesion molecules, leukocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) and macrophage-1 antigen (Mac-1). Similarly, exposure to sevoflurane, another volatile anesthetic and LFA-1 inhibitor, is associated with an increase in breast cancer size compared with non-exposure. Thus, the present study first examined the role of LFA-1 and Mac-1 in the EO771 breast cancer model. Both LFA-1 deficiency and inhibition enhanced tumor growth, which was supported by cytokine and eicosanoid data profiles. By contrast, Mac-1 deficiency did not affect tumor growth. The exposure to isoflurane and sevoflurane was associated with an increase in breast cancer size compared with non-exposure. These data suggested that isoflurane enhanced tumor growth by interacting with LFA-1. Isoflurane exposure did not affect tumor growth in LFA-1-deficient mice. In summary, the present data showed that LFA-1 deficiency facilitated breast cancer growth, and isoflurane, an LFA-1 inhibitor, also increased breast cancer growth.

Abstract
Although surgical techniques and perioperative care have made significant advances, perioperative mortality in cardiac surgery remains relatively high. Single- or multiple-organ failure remains the leading cause of postoperative mortality. Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is a common trigger for organ injury or dysfunction in surgical patients. Cardiac surgery involves major surgical dissection, the use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and frequent blood transfusions. Ischemia-reperfusion injury and contact activation from CPB are among the major triggers for SIRS. Blood transfusion can also induce proinflammatory responses. Here, we review the immunological mechanisms of organ injury and the role of anesthetic regimens in cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Acute lung injury is one of major complications associated with sepsis, responsible for morbidity and mortality. Patients who suffer from acute lung injury often require respiratory support under sedations, and it would be important to know the role of sedatives in lung injury. We examined volatile anesthetic isoflurane, which is commonly used in surgical setting, but also used as an alternative sedative in intensive care settings in European countries and Canada. We found that isoflurane exposure attenuated neutrophil recruitment to the lungs in mice suffering from experimental polymicrobial abdominal sepsis. We found that isoflurane attenuated one of major neutrophil chemoattractants LTB4 mediated response via its receptor BLT1 in neutrophils. Furthermore, we have shown that isoflurane directly bound to BLT1 by a competition assay using newly developed labeled BLT1 antagonist, suggesting that isoflurane would be a BLT1 antagonist.

Abstract
Cancer remains to be the leading cause of death globally. Surgery is a mainstay treatment for solid tumors. Thus, it is critical to optimize perioperative care. Anesthesia is a requisite component for surgical tumor resection, and general anesthesia is given in the vast majority of tumor resection cases. Because anesthetics are growingly recognized as immunomodulators, it is critical to optimize anesthetic regimens for cancer surgery if the selection can affect outcomes. Here, we reviewed the role of volatile and intravenous anesthesia used for cancer surgery in cancer recurrence.

Abstract
Propofol as an intravenous anesthetic and isoflurane as an inhalational/volatile anesthetic continue to be an important part of surgical anesthetic interventions worldwide. The impact of these anesthetics on tumor progression, immune modulation, and survival rates of cancer patients has been widely investigated. Although most of the preclinical studies have provided a beneficial effect of propofol over isoflurane or other volatile anesthetics, several investigations have shown contradictory results, which warrant more preclinical and clinical studies. Propofol mostly exhibits antitumor properties, whereas isoflurane being a cost-effective anesthetic is frequently used. However, isoflurane has been also reported with protumorigenic activity. This review provides an overall perspective on the network of signaling pathways that may modulate several steps of tumor progression from inflammation, immunomodulation, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) to invasion, metastasis, angiogenesis, and cancer stemness and extracellular vesicles along with chemotherapeutic applications and clinical status of these anesthetics. A clear understanding of the mechanistic viewpoints of these anesthetics may pave the way for more prospective clinical trials with the ultimate goal of obtaining a safe and optimal anesthetic intervention that would prevent cancer recurrence and may influence better postoperative survival.

Abstract
Surgical site infections are significant health care issues, and efforts to mitigate their occurrence have been ongoing worldwide, mainly focusing to reduce the spillage of microbes to the otherwise sterile tissues. Optimization of host immunity has been also recognized including temperature regulation (normothermia), adequate oxygenation, and glucose management. A number of papers have described the role of anesthetics in host immunity. The role of anesthetics in postoperative outcomes including surgical site infections has been also studied. We will review the current literature and propose the importance of anesthetic selection to potentially mitigate surgical site infections.

Abstract
Ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is inevitable in kidney transplantation and negatively impacts graft and patient outcome. Reperfusion takes place in the recipient and most of the injury following ischemia and reperfusion occurs during this reperfusion phase; therefore, the intra-operative period seems an attractive window of opportunity to modulate IRI and improve short- and potentially long-term graft outcome. Commonly used volatile anesthetics such as sevoflurane and isoflurane have been shown to interfere with many of the pathophysiological processes involved in the injurious cascade of IRI. Therefore, volatile anesthetic (VA) agents might be the preferred anesthetics used during the transplantation procedure. This review highlights the molecular and cellular protective points of engagement of VA shown in in vitro studies and in vivo animal experiments, and the potential translation of these results to the clinical setting of kidney transplantation.

Abstract
Toll like receptors (TLRs) are critical receptors to respond to danger signals, and their functions are relevant in the perioperative period. We previously reported that volatile anesthetics directly bound to TLR2 and TLR4 and attenuated their functions. Given that TLR9 can respond to mitochondrial DNA, a danger signal that is released upon tissue injury, we examined the role of anesthetics on TLR9 function. Our reporter assay showed that volatile anesthetics isoflurane and sevoflurane increased the activation of TLR9, while propofol attenuated it. TLR9 activation occurs via its dimerization. The dimerization is facilitated by unmethylated cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) DNA as well as DNA containing cytosine at the second position from 5'-end (5'-xCx DNA). Our structural analysis using photoactivable anesthetics and rigid docking simulation showed that isoflurane and sevoflurane bound to both TLR9 dimer interface and 5'-xCx DNA binding site. Propofol bound to the TLR9 antagonist binding site. This is the first illustration that anesthetics can affect the binding of nucleic acids to their receptor. This study sets the foundation for the effect of anesthetics on TLR9 and will pave the way for future studies to determine the significance of such interactions in the clinical setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although immunomodulatory effects of anesthetics have been increasingly recognized, their underlying molecular mechanisms are not completely understood. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are one of the major receptors to recognize invading pathogens and danger signals from damaged host tissues to initiate immune responses. Among the TLR family, TLR2 and TLR4 recognize a wide range of ligands and are considered to be important players in perioperative pathophysiology. Based on our recent finding that volatile anesthetics modulate TLR4 function, we tested our hypothesis that they would also modulate TLR2 function. METHODS The effect of anesthetics isoflurane, sevoflurane, propofol, and dexmedetomidine on TLR2 activation was examined by reporter assays. An anesthetic that affected the activation was subjected to in silico rigid docking simulation on TLR2. To test our prediction that sevoflurane and a TLR1/TLR2 ligand Pam3CSK4 would compete for the same pocket of TLR2, we performed Pam3CSK4 competitive binding assay to TLR2 using HEK cells stably transfected with TLR2 (HEK-TLR2) with or without sevoflurane. We examined the effect of different anesthetics on the functions of human neutrophils stimulated with TLR2 ligands. Kruskal-Wallis test and Mann-Whitney U test were used for statistical analysis. RESULTS We observed that the attenuation of TLR1/TLR2 activation was seen on sevoflurane exposure but not on isoflurane, propofol, or dexmedetomidine exposure. The attenuation of TLR2/TLR6 activation was not seen in any of the anesthetics tested. The rigid docking simulation predicted that sevoflurane and Pam3CSK4 bound to the same pocket of TLR1/TLR2 complex. The binding of Pam3CSK4 to HEK-TLR2 cells was impaired in the presence of sevoflurane, indicating that sevoflurane and Pam3CSK4 competed for the pocket, as predicted in silico. The stimulation of neutrophils with Pam3CSK4 induced L-selection shedding but did not affect phagocytosis and reactive oxygen species production. L-selectin shedding from neutrophils was attenuated only by sevoflurane, consistent with the result of our reporter assays. CONCLUSIONS We found that TLR1/TLR2 activation was attenuated by sevoflurane, but we found no evidence for attenuation by isoflurane, propofol, or dexmedetomidine at clinically relevant concentrations. Our structural analysis and competition assay supported that sevoflurane directly bound to TLR2 at the interphase of the TLR1/TLR2 complex. Sevoflurane attenuated neutrophil L-selectin shedding, an important step for neutrophil migration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND General anaesthetics interact with the pathophysiological mechanisms of traumatic brain injury (TBI). We used a Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly) model to test the hypothesis that ageing and genetic background modulate the effect of anaesthetics and hyperoxia on TBI-induced mortality in the context of blunt trauma. METHODS We exposed flies to isoflurane or sevoflurane under normoxic or hyperoxic conditions and TBI, and subsequently quantified the effect on mortality 24 h after injury. To determine the effect of age on anaesthetic-induced mortality, we analysed flies at 1-8 and 43-50 days old. To determine the effect of genetic background, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) analysis on a collection of young inbred, fully sequenced lines. RESULTS Exposure to anaesthetics and hyperoxia differentially affected mortality in young and old flies. Pre-exposure of young but not old flies to anaesthetics reduced mortality. Post-exposure selectively increased mortality. For old but not young flies, hyperoxia enhanced the effect on mortality of post-exposure to isoflurane but not to sevoflurane. Post-exposure to isoflurane in hyperoxia increased the mortality of young fly lines in the Drosophila Genetic Reference Panel collection to different extents. GWAS analysis of these data identified single nucleotide polymorphisms in genes involved in cell water regulation and oxygen sensing as being associated with the post-exposure effect on mortality. CONCLUSIONS Ageing and genetic background influence the effects of volatile general anaesthetics and hyperoxia on mortality in the context of traumatic brain injury. Polymorphisms in specific genes are identified as potential causes of ageing and genetic effects.

In septic mice, the commonly used volatile anesthetic isoflurane attenuated the production of 5-lipoxygenase products and IL-10 and reduced CD11b and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 expression on neutrophils, suggesting the attenuation of TLR4 signaling. We confirmed the attenuation of TLR4 signaling in vitro and their direct binding to TLR4-myeloid differentiation-2 (MD-2) complex by photolabeling experiments. The binding sites of volatile anesthetics isoflurane and sevoflurane were located near critical residues for TLR4-MD-2 complex formation and TLR4-MD-2-LPS dimerization. Additionally, TLR4 activation was not attenuated by intravenous anesthetics, except for a high concentration of propofol. Considering the important role of TLR4 system in the perioperative settings, these findings suggest the possibility that anesthetic choice may modulate the outcome in patients or surgical cases in which TLR4 activation is expected.-Okuno, T., Koutsogiannaki, S., Hou, L., Bu, W., Ohto, U., Eckenhoff, R. G., Yokomizo, T., Yuki, K. Volatile anesthetics isoflurane and sevoflurane directly target and attenuate Toll-like receptor 4 system.

Abstract
Sepsis remains a significant health care burden, with high morbidities and mortalities. Patients with sepsis often require general anesthesia for procedures and imaging studies. Knowing that anesthetic drugs can pose immunomodulatory effects, it would be critical to understand the impact of anesthetics on sepsis pathophysiology. The volatile anesthetic sevoflurane is a common general anesthetic derived from ether as a prototype. Using a murine sepsis model induced by cecal ligation and puncture surgery, we examined the impact of sevoflurane on sepsis outcome. Different from volatile anesthetic isoflurane, sevoflurane exposure significantly improved the outcome of septic mice. This was associated with less apoptosis in the spleen. Because splenic apoptosis was largely attributed to the apoptosis of neutrophils, we examined the effect of sevoflurane on FasL-induced neutrophil apoptosis. Sevoflurane exposure significantly attenuated apoptosis. Sevoflurane did not affect the binding of FasL to the extracellular domain of Fas receptor. Instead, in silico analysis suggested that sevoflurane would bind to the interphase between Fas death domain (DD) and Fas-associated DD (FADD). The effect of sevoflurane on Fas DD-FADD interaction was examined using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). Sevoflurane attenuated FRET efficiency, indicating that sevoflurane hindered the interaction between Fas DD and FADD. The predicted sevoflurane binding site is known to play a significant role in Fas DD-FADD interaction, supporting our in vitro and in vivo apoptosis results.-Koutsogiannaki, S., Hou, L., Babazada, H., Okuno, T., Blazon-Brown, N., Soriano, S. G., Yokomizo, T., Yuki, K. The volatile anesthetic sevoflurane reduces neutrophil apoptosis via Fas death domain-Fas-associated death domain interaction.

Anesthetics Influence Mortality in a Drosophila Model of Blunt Trauma With Traumatic Brain Injury. Anesth Analg 2019; 126:1979-1986.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Exposure to anesthetics is common in the majority of early survivors of life-threatening injuries. Whether and to what degree general anesthetics influence outcomes from major trauma is unknown. Potential confounding effects of general anesthetics on outcome measures are usually disregarded. We hypothesized that exposure to isoflurane or sevoflurane modulates the outcome from blunt trauma with traumatic brain injury (bTBI). METHODS We tested the hypothesis in a novel model of bTBI implemented in Drosophila melanogaster. Fruit flies of the standard laboratory strain w were cultured under standard conditions. We titrated the severity of bTBI to a mortality index at 24 hours (MI24) of approximately 20% under control conditions. We administered standard doses of isoflurane and sevoflurane before, before and during, or after bTBI and measured the resulting MI24. We report the MI24 as mean ± standard deviation. RESULTS Isoflurane or sevoflurane administered for 2 hours before bTBI reduced the MI24 from 22.3 ± 2.6 to 10.4 ± 1.8 (P < 10, n = 12) and from 19.3 ± 0.9 to 8.9 ± 1.1 (P < .0001, n = 8), respectively. In contrast, administration of isoflurane after bTBI increased the MI24 from 18.5% ± 4.3% to 25.3% ± 9.1% (P = .0026, n = 22), while sevoflurane had no effect (22.4 ± 7.1 and 21.5 ± 5.8, n = 22). CONCLUSIONS In a whole animal model of bTBI, general anesthetics were not indifferent with respect to early mortality. Therefore, collateral effects of general anesthetics should be considered in the interpretation of results obtained in vertebrate trauma models. Invertebrate model organisms can serve as a productive platform to interrogate anesthetic targets that mediate collateral effects and to inform trauma research in higher organisms about the potential impact of anesthetics on outcomes.

Abstract
Background Perioperative infections, particularly surgical site infections pose significant morbidity and mortality. Phagocytosis is a critical step for microbial eradication. We examined the effect of commonly used anesthetics on macrophage phagocytosis and its mechanism. Methods The effect of anesthetics (isoflurane, sevoflurane, propofol) on macrophage phagocytosis was tested using RAW264.7 mouse cells, mouse peritoneal macrophages, and THP-1 human cells. Either opsonized sheep erythrocytes or fluorescent labeled Escherichia coli were used as phagocytic objects. The activation of Rap1, a critical protein in phagocytosis was assessed using the active Rap1 pull-down and detection kit. To examine anesthetic binding site(s) on Rap1, photolabeling experiments were performed using azi-isoflurane and azi-sevoflurane. The alanine scanning mutagenesis of Rap1 was performed to assess the role of anesthetic binding site in Rap1 activation and phagocytosis. Results Macrophage phagocytosis was significantly attenuated by the exposure of isoflurane (50% reduction by 1% isoflurane) and sevoflurane (50% reduction by 1.5% sevoflurane), but not by propofol. Photolabeling experiments showed that sevoflurane directly bound to Rap1. Mutagenesis analysis demonstrated that the sevoflurane binding site affected Rap1 activation and macrophage phagocytosis. Conclusions We showed that isoflurane and sevoflurane attenuated macrophage phagocytosis, but propofol did not. Our study showed for the first time that sevoflurane served as a novel small GTPase Rap1 inhibitor. The finding will further enrich our understanding of yet-to-be determined mechanism of volatile anesthetics and their off-target effects. The sevoflurane binding site was located outside the known Rap1 functional sites, indicating the discovery of a new functional site on Rap1 and this site would serve as a pocket for the development of novel Rap1 inhibitors.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) remains to pose a high morbidity and mortality without any targeted therapies. Sedation, usually given intravenously, is an important part of clinical practice in intensive care unit (ICU), and the effect of sedatives on patients’ outcomes has been studied intensively. Although volatile anesthetics are not routine sedatives in ICU, preclinical and clinical studies suggested their potential benefit in pulmonary pathophysiology. This review will summarize the current knowledge of ARDS and the role of volatile anesthetic sedation in this setting from both clinical and mechanistic standpoints. In addition, we will review the infrastructure to use volatile anesthetics.

Abstract
In its severest forms, decompression sickness (DCS) may extend systemically and/or induce severe neurological deficits, including paralysis or even death. It seems that the sterile and ischemic inflammatory phenomena are consecutive to the reaction of the bubbles with the organism and that the blood platelet activation plays a determinant role in the development of DCS. According to the hypotheses commonly put forward, the bubbles could either activate the platelets by direct contact or be the cause of abrasion of the vascular epithelium, which would expose the basal plate glycogen and then prompt the platelets to activate. The purpose of this study is to confirm anti-platelet drugs specific to GPIIb/IIIa integrin could prevent DCS, using a rat model. There is a significant difference concerning the incidence of the drug on the clinical status of the rats (p = 0.016), with a better clinical outcome for rats treated with tirofiban (TIR) compared with the control rats (p = 0.027), even if the three anti-GPIIb/IIIa agents used have limited respiratory distress. TIR limited the decrease in platelet counts following the hyperbaric exposure. TIR help to prevent from DCS. TIR is specific to GPIIb/IIIa whereas eptifibatide and abciximab could inhibit αVβ3 and αMβ2 involved in communication with the immune system. While inhibiting GPIIb/IIIa could highlight a platelet-dependent inflammatory pathway that improves DCS outcomes, we wonder whether inhibiting the αVβ3 and αMβ2 communications is not a wrong approach for limiting mortality in DCS.

Abstract
Volatile anesthetics are often administered to patients with sepsis for
procedural anesthesia or sedation in intensive care units. Sepsis still carries
significant morbidities and mortalities, and organ injuries pose major
complications. Early liver dysfunction is associated with poor outcome mainly as
a result of overwhelming neutrophil recruitment. Leukocyte function-associated
antigen-1 (LFA-1) and macrophage-1 antigen (Mac-1) are major adhesion molecules
on neutrophils and involved in neutrophil recruitment. We have previously showed
that volatile anesthetic isoflurane inhibited LFA-1 and Mac-1. Here we studied
the role of isoflurane, LFA-1 and Mac-1 on neutrophil recruitment to the liver
and liver injury using experimental polymicrobial abdominal sepsis induced by
cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) surgery. We used wild type (WT), LFA-1, Mac-1
and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) knockout (KO) mice. Following the
induction of sepsis by CLP surgery, a group of mice were exposed to isoflurane
for 2 hours. We found that Mac-1 and ICAM-1, but not LFA-1 were involved in
neutrophil recruitment to liver. Isoflurane attenuated neutrophil recruitment
and liver injury in WT and LFA-1 KO mice. Mac-1 KO mice had limited neutrophil
recruitment and liver injury, both of which were not attenuated by isoflurane
further, suggesting that isoflurane mitigated liver injury via Mac-1. Mac-1
colocalized with ICAM-1 and fibrinogen on liver tissues. In the presence of
fibrinogen Mac-1 bound ICAM-1 significantly more, while LFA-1 bound less to
ICAM-1, suggesting that Mac-1 used fibrinogen as a bridging molecule to bind
ICAM-1. In conclusion, isoflurane exposure attenuated neutrophil recruitment and
liver injury via Mac-1.

Abstract
Sepsis continues to result in high morbidity and mortality. General anesthesia is often administered to septic patients, but the impacts of general anesthesia on host defense are not well understood. General anesthesia can be given by volatile and intravenous anesthetics. Our previous in vitro study showed that volatile anesthetic isoflurane directly inhibits leukocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) and macrophage-1 antigen (Mac-1), critical adhesion molecules on leukocytes. Thus, the role of isoflurane exposure on in vivo LFA-1 and Mac-1 function was examined using polymicrobial abdominal sepsis model in mice. As a comparison, intravenous anesthetic propofol was given to a group of mice. Wild type, LFA-1, Mac-1, and adhesion molecule-1 knockout mice were used. Following the induction of polymicrobial abdominal sepsis by cecal ligation and puncture, groups of mice were exposed to isoflurane for either 2 or 6 h, or to propofol for 6 h, and their outcomes were examined. Bacterial loads in tissues and blood, neutrophil recruitment to the peritoneal cavity and phagocytosis were studied. Six hours of isoflurane exposure worsened the outcome of abdominal sepsis (P < .0001) with higher bacterial loads in tissues, but 2 h of isoflurane or 6 h of propofol exposure did not. Isoflurane impaired neutrophil recruitment to the abdominal cavity by inhibiting LFA-1 function. Isoflurane also impaired bacterial phagocytosis via complement receptors including Mac-1. In conclusion, prolonged isoflurane exposure worsened the outcome of experimental polymicrobial abdominal sepsis and was associated with impaired neutrophil recruitment and bacterial phagocytosis via reduced LFA-1 and Mac-1 function.

Abstract
Anesthetic photoaffinity ligands have had an increasing presence within anesthesiology research. These ligands mimic parent general anesthetics and allow investigators to study anesthetic interactions with receptors and enzymes; identify novel targets; and determine distribution within biological systems. To date, nearly all general anesthetics used in medicine have a corresponding photoaffinity ligand represented in the literature. In this review, we examine all aspects of the current methodologies, including ligand design, characterization, and deployment. Finally we offer points of consideration and highlight the future outlook as more photoaffinity ligands emerge within the field.

Abstract
Volatile anesthetics (VAs) have been in clinical use for a very long time. Their mechanism of action is yet to be fully delineated, but multiple ion channels have been reported as targets for VAs (canonical VA targets). It is increasingly recognized that VAs also manifest effects outside the central nervous system, including on immune cells. However, the literature related to how VAs affect the behavior of immune cells is very limited, but it is of interest that some canonical VA targets are reportedly expressed in immune cells. Here, we review the current literature and describe canonical VA targets expressed in leukocytes and their known roles. In addition, we introduce adhesion molecules called β2 integrins as noncanonical VA targets in leukocytes. Finally, we propose a model for how VAs affect the function of neutrophils, macrophages, and natural killer cells via concerted effects on multiple targets as examples.

Abstract
A number of retrospective studies have suggested that choice of anesthetic drugs during surgical tumor resection might affect tumor recurrence/metastasis, or outcome of patients. The recent study showed that volatile anesthetics-based general anesthesia was associated with the worse outcomes than intravenous anesthetics-based general anesthesia. However, the underlying mechanism is yet to be determined. Because natural killer (NK) cells are implicated as important immune cells for tumor recurrence/metastasis in the perioperative period, we examined the effect of different anesthetics on NK cell-mediated tumor cytotoxicity. Because adhesion molecule leukocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) is functionally important in NK cells and is inhibited by commonly used volatile anesthetics isoflurane and sevoflurane, we hypothesized that these anesthetics would attenuate NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Using human NK cell line NK92-MI cells and tumor cell line K562 cells as a model system, we performed cytotoxicity, proliferation, conjugation and degranulation assays. Lytic granule polarization was also assessed. We showed that isoflurane, sevoflurane and LFA-1 inhibitor BIRT377 attenuated cytotoxicity, and reduced conjugation and polarization, but not degranulation of NK cells. Our data suggest that isoflurane and sevoflurane attenuated NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity at least partly by their LFA-1 inhibition in vitro. Whether or not isoflurane and sevoflurane attenuate NK cell-mediated tumor cytotoxicity in patients needs to be determined in the future.

Abstract
Macrophage-1 antigen (Mac-1, αMβ2) is a leukocyte adhesion molecule that plays a significant role in leukocyte crawling and phagocytosis, and is homologous to its sister protein leukocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1, αLβ2). The authors have previously demonstrated that volatile anesthetics isoflurane and sevoflurane bound to and inhibited LFA-1. Here, the hypothesis tested was that isoflurane and sevoflurane would inhibit Mac-1. A binding assay of Mac-1 to its ligand inter-cellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) using V-bottom plates was established. The effect of isoflurane and sevoflurane on Mac-1 was examined using this ICAM-1 binding assay and by probing exposure of activation-sensitive epitopes. The docking program Glide was used to predict anesthetic binding site(s) on Mac-1. The functional role of this predicted binding site was then assessed by introducing point mutations in this region. Lastly, the effect of anesthetic on activating mutants was evaluated. The results indicated that isoflurane inhibited binding of Mac-1 to ICAM-1, but sevoflurane did not. Isoflurane also attenuated the exposure of the activation-sensitive epitopes. The docking simulation predicted the isoflurane binding site to be at the cavity underneath the α7 helix of the ligand binding domain (the αM I domain). Point mutants at this predicted binding site contained both activating and deactivating mutants, suggesting its functional significance. The binding of activating mutants αM-Y267A β2-WT and αM-L312A β2-WT to ICAM-1 was not affected by isoflurane, but binding of another activating mutant αM-WT β2-L132A was inhibited supporting the binding of isoflurane to this cavity. The conclusion reached from these findings was that isoflurane inhibited Mac-1 binding to ICAM-1 by binding to the cavity underneath the α7 helix of the αM I domain, but sevoflurane did not. Thus, because these common clinical volatile anesthetics demonstrated different effects on Mac-1, this implied their effects on the immune system might differ.

Abstract
Volatile anaesthestics have shown to modulate the oxidative response of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs). We investigated the effects of isoflurane and sevoflurane on the degranulation of total and active myeloperoxidase (MPO) from horse PMNs and their direct interaction with MPO activity. Whole blood from horse was incubated in 1 and 2 minimal alveolar concentrations (MAC) of isoflurane or sevoflurane for 1h and PMNs were stimulated with cytochalasin B (CB) plus N-formyl-méthionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP). After stimulation, the plasma was collected to measure total and active MPO by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and specific immunological extraction followed by enzymatic detection (SIEFED) respectively. The effects of 1 and 2 MAC of isoflurane and sevoflurane on the peroxidase and chlorination activity of pure MPO were assessed by fluorescence using Amplex red and 3'-(p-aminophenyl) fluorescein (APF) respectively and in parallel with a SIEFED assay to estimate the potential interaction of the anaesthetics with the enzyme. Although isoflurane and sevoflurane had inconsistent effects on total MPO release, both volatile agents reduced active MPO release and showed a direct inhibition on the peroxidase and the chlorination activity of the enzyme. A persistent interaction between MPO and anaesthetics was evidenced with isoflurane but not with sevoflurane.

Abstract
Sepsis remains to be a significant health care issue associated with high mortality and healthcare cost, despite the extensive effort to better understand the pathophysiology of the sepsis. Recently updated clinical guideline for severe sepsis and septic shock, "Surviving Sepsis Campaign 2012", emphasizes the importance of early goal-directed therapy, which can be implemented in intraoperative management of sepsis patients. Herein, we review the updates of current guideline and discuss its application to anesthesic management. Furthermore, we review the recent advance in knowledge of sepsis pathophysiology, focusing on immune modulation, which may lead to new clinical therapeutic approach to sepsis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Isoflurane in clinical use is a racemate of S- and R-isoflurane. Previous studies have demonstrated that the effects of S-isoflurane on relevant anesthetic targets might be modestly stronger (less than 2-fold) than R-isoflurane. The X-ray crystallographic structure of the immunological target, leukocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) with racemic isoflurane suggested that only S-isoflurane bound specifically to this protein. If so, the use of specific isoflurane enantiomers may have advantage in the surgical settings where a wide range of inflammatory responses is expected to occur. Here, we have further tested the hypothesis that isoflurane enantioselectivity is apparent in solution binding and functional studies. METHODS First, binding of isoflurane enantiomers to LFA-1 was studied using 1-aminoanthracene (1-AMA) displacement assays. The binding site of each enantiomer on LFA-1 was studied using the docking program GLIDE. Functional studies employed the flow-cytometry based ICAM binding assay. RESULTS Both enantiomers decreased 1-AMA fluorescence signal (at 520 nm), indicating that both competed with 1-AMA and bound to the αL I domain. The docking simulation demonstrated that both enantiomers bound to the LFA-1 "lovastatin site." ICAM binding assays showed that S-isoflurane inhibited more potently than R-isoflurane, consistent with the result of 1-AMA competition assay. CONCLUSIONS In contrast with the x-ray crystallography, both enantiomers bound to and inhibited LFA-1. S-isoflurane showed slight preference over R-isoflurane.

Abstract
Cancer is the second most common cause of death in the United States. Metastatic disease is a more important cause of cancer-related death relative to primary tumor progression. Surgical excision is the primary treatment for most malignant tumors. However, surgery itself can inhibit important host defenses and promote the development of metastases. An altered balance between the metastatic potential of the tumor and the anti-metastatic host defenses, including cell-mediated immunity and natural killer cell function, is a plausible mechanism of increased cancer metastasis. This article reviews the increasingly recognized concept of anesthetic technique along with perioperative factors and their potential to affect long-term outcome after cancer surgery. The potential effect of intravenous anesthetics, volatile agents, local anesthetic drugs, opiates, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are reviewed along with recent literature and ongoing clinical trials in this area. Regional anesthesia is increasingly emerging as a safer option with less cancer recurrence potential as compared to general anesthesia. Blood transfusion, pain, stress, use of beta-blockers, and hypothermia are other potentially important perioperative factors to consider.

Abstract
Patients and their families have, for many decades, detected subtle changes in cognition subsequent to surgery, and only recently has this been subjected to scientific scrutiny. Through a combination of retrospective human studies, small prospective biomarker studies, and experiments in animals, it is now clear that durable consequences of both anesthesia and surgery occur, and that these intersect with the normal processes of aging, and the abnormal processes of chronic neurodegeneration. It is highly likely that inflammatory cascades are at the heart of this intersection, and if confirmed, this suggests a therapeutic strategy to mitigate enhanced neuropathology in vulnerable surgical patients.

Abstract
General anesthetic photolabels are used to reveal molecular targets and molecular binding sites of anesthetic ligands. After identification, the relevance of anesthetic substrates or binding sites can be tested in biological systems. Halothane and photoactive analogs of isoflurane, propofol, etomidate, neurosteroids, anthracene, and long chain alcohols have been used in anesthetic photolabeling experiments. Interrogated protein targets include the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, GABAA receptor, tubulin, leukocyte function-associated antigen-1, and protein kinase C. In this review, we summarize insights revealed by photolabeling these targets, as well as general features of anesthetics, such as their propensity to partition to mitochondria and bind voltage-dependent anion channels. The theory of anesthetic photolabel design and the experimental application of photoactive ligands are also discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We previously demonstrated that propofol interacted with the leukocyte adhesion molecule leukocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) and inhibited the production of interleukin-2 via LFA-1 in a dependent manner. However, the binding site(s) of propofol on LFA-1 remains unknown. METHODS First, the inhibition of LFA-1's ligand binding by propofol was confirmed in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) ELISA-type assay. The binding site of propofol on LFA-1 was probed with a photolabeling experiment using a photoactivatable propofol analog called azi-propofol-m. The adducted residues of LFA-1 by this compound were determined using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. In addition, the binding of propofol to the ligand-binding domain of LFA-1 was examined using 1-aminoanthracene (1-AMA) displacement assay. Furthermore, the binding site(s) of 1-AMA and propofol on LFA-1 was studied using the docking program GLIDE. RESULTS We demonstrated that propofol impaired the binding of LFA-1 to its ligand intercellular adhesion molecule-1. The photolabeling experiment demonstrated that the adducted residues were localized in the allosteric cavity of the ligand-binding domain of LFA-1 called "lovastatin site." The shift of fluorescence spectra was observed when 1-AMA was coincubated with the low-affinity conformer of LFA-1 ligand-binding domain (wild-type [WT] αL I domain), not with the high-affinity conformer, suggesting that 1-AMA bound only to WT αL I domain. In the 1-AMA displacement assay, propofol decreased 1-AMA fluorescence signal (at 520 nm), suggesting that propofol competed with 1-AMA and bound to the WT αL I domain. The docking simulation demonstrated that both 1-AMA and propofol bound to the lovastatin site, which agreed with the photolabeling experiment. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated that propofol bound to the lovastatin site in LFA-1. Previously we showed that the volatile anesthetics isoflurane and sevoflurane bound to this site. Taken together, the lovastatin site is an example of the common binding sites for anesthetics currently used clinically.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether inflammatory responses to surgery are comparably activated during total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) and during volatile anesthesia remains unclear. We thus compared the perioperative effects of TIVA and isoflurane anesthesia on plasma concentrations of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory interleukins and cell adhesion molecules. METHODS Patients having laparoscopic cholecystectomies were randomly allocated to two groups: 44 were assigned to TIVA and 44 to isoflurane anesthesia. IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-13, and the cellular adhesion molecules intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 were determined preoperatively, before incision, and at 2 and 24 hours postoperatively. Our primary outcomes were area-under-the-curve cytokine and adhesion molecule concentrations over 24 postoperative hours. RESULTS The only statistically significant difference in area-under-the-curve concentrations was for IL-6, which was greater in patients given isoflurane:78 (95% confidence interval (CI): 52 to 109) pg/ml versus 33 (22 to 50) pg/ml, P= 0.006. Two hours after surgery, IL-6 was significantly greater than baseline in patients assigned to isoflurane: 47 (95% CI: 4 to 216, P<0.001) pg/ml versus 18 (95%CI: 4 to 374, P<0.001) pg/ml in the TIVA group. In contrast, IL-10 was significantly greater in patients assigned to TIVA: 20 (95% CI: 2 to 140, P<0.001) pg/ml versus 12 (95% CI: 3 to 126, P<0.001) pg/ml. By 24 hours after surgery, concentrations were generally similar between study groups and similar to baseline values. CONCLUSION The only biomarker whose postoperative area-under-the-curve concentrations differed significantly as a function of anesthetic management was IL-6. Two hours after surgery, IL-6 concentrations were significantly greater in patients given isoflurane than TIVA. However, the differences were modest and seem unlikely to prove clinically important. Further studies are needed.

Abstract
Background In clinical reports, the usage of isoflurane and sevoflurane was associated with more surgical field bleeding in endoscopic sinus surgeries as compared to propofol. The activation of platelet receptor αIIbβ3 is a crucial event for platelet aggregation and clot stability. Here we studied the effect of isoflurane, sevoflurane, and propofol on the activation of αIIbβ3. Methods The effect of anesthetics on the activation of αIIbβ3 was probed using the activation sensitive antibody PAC-1 in both cell-based (platelets and αIIbβ3 transfectants) and cell-free assays. The binding sites of isoflurane on αIIbβ3 were explored using photoactivatable isoflurane (azi-isoflurane). The functional implication of revealed isoflurane binding sites were studied using alanine-scanning mutagenesis. Results Isoflurane and sevoflurane diminished the binding of PAC-1 to wild-type αIIbβ3 transfectants, but not to the high-affinity mutant, β3-N305T. Both anesthetics also impaired PAC-1 binding in a cell-free assay. In contrast, propofol did not affect the activation of αIIbβ3. Residues adducted by azi-isoflurane were near the calcium binding site (an important regulatory site termed SyMBS) just outside of the ligand binding site. The mutagenesis experiments demonstrated that these adducted residues were important in regulating integrin activation. Conclusions Isoflurane and sevoflurane, but not propofol, impaired the activation of αIIbβ3. Azi-isoflurane binds to the regulatory site of integrin αIIbβ3, thereby suggesting that isoflurane blocks ligand binding of αIIbβ3 in not a competitive, but an allosteric manner.

Abstract
PURPOSE Neutrophil recruitment to the inflammatory sites is regulated by a variety of adhesion molecules including β2 integrins. The dependency of neutrophil recruitment on β2 integrins is variable in different tissues, but has not yet been verified in the cutaneous passive reverse Arthus reaction. We examined this question and also evaluated the impact of isoflurane on neutrophil recruitment to the skin because we previously showed in vitro that isoflurane binds and inhibits β2 integrins. METHODS The dependency on β2 integrins in neutrophil recruitment to the skin in the Arthus reaction was examined using αL, αM and β2 knockout mice. Then, we evaluated the effect of isoflurane on neutrophil recruitment to the skin. In addition, the effects of isoflurane on neutrophil binding to intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), one of the β2 integrin ligands, were studied in vitro using cell adhesion assays. RESULTS Neutrophil recruitment to the skin in the Arthus reaction model was totally dependent on β2 integrins, as β2 knockout mice completely abolished it. However, the defect of only one of the β2 integrins was not sufficient to abolish neutrophil recruitment. Isoflurane reduced neutrophil recruitment to the skin by approximately 90 %. Also, isoflurane inhibited neutrophil adhesion to β2 integrin ligand ICAM-1. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated that (1) neutrophil recruitment to the skin was totally dependent on β2 integrins, and (2) isoflurane significantly impaired neutrophil recruitment. Based on the previous studies on the contribution of other adhesion molecules in neutrophil recruitment, it is likely that isoflurane at least partially affects on β2 integrins in this model.

Abstract
We previously demonstrated that isoflurane targets lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1), a critical adhesion molecule for leukocyte arrest. However, it remains to be determined how isoflurane interacts with the full ectodomain LFA-1 and modulates its conformation and function. Isoflurane binding sites on the full ectodomain LFA-1 were probed by photolabeling using photoactivatable isoflurane (azi-isoflurane). The adducted residues were determined by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry analysis. Separately, docking simulations were performed to predict binding sites. Point mutations were introduced around isoflurane binding sites. The significance of isoflurane's effect was assessed in both intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) binding assays and epitope mapping of activation-sensitive antibodies using flow cytometry. Two isoflurane binding sites were identified using photolabeling and were further validated by the docking simulation: one at the hydrophobic pocket in the ICAM-1 binding domain (the αI domain); the other at the βI domain. Mutagenesis of the α'1 helix showed that isoflurane binding sites at the βI domain were significantly important in modulating LFA-1 function and conformation. Epitope mapping using activation-sensitive antibodies suggested that isoflurane stabilized LFA-1 in the closed conformation. This study suggested that isoflurane binds to both the αI and βI domains allosteric to the ICAM-1 binding site, and that isoflurane binding stabilizes LFA-1 in the closed conformation.

Abstract
Integrin LFA-1 plays an important role in leukocyte trafficking to inflammatory sites as well as the interaction of T cells with antigen-presenting cells. Inhibition of the LFA-1:ICAM-1 interactions is a promising therapeutic approach for alleviating inflammation and autoimmune diseases. This chapter describes cell-free assays to study the LFA-1:ICAM-1 interactions. These assays may be used for screening novel LFA-1 antagonists.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sedative drugs modify immune cell functions via several mechanisms. However, the effects of sedatives on immune function have been primarily investigated in neutrophils and macrophages, and to the lesser extent lymphocytes. Lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) is an adhesion molecule that has a central role in regulating immune function of lymphocytes including interleukin-2 (IL-2) production and lymphocyte proliferation. Previous clinical studies reported that propofol and isoflurane reduced IL-2 level in patients, but midazolam did not. We previously demonstrated that isoflurane inhibited LFA-1 binding to its counter ligand, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), which might contribute to the reduction of IL-2 levels. In the current study, we examined the effect of propofol, midazolam, and dexmedetomidine on LFA-1/ICAM-1 binding, and the subsequent biological effects. METHODS The effect of sedative drugs on T-cell proliferation and IL-2 production was measured by calorimetric assays on human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Because LFA-1/ICAM-1 binding has an important role in T-cell proliferation and IL-2 production, we measured the effect of sedative drugs on ICAM-1 binding to LFA-1 protein (cell-free assay). This analysis was followed by flow cytometric analysis of LFA-1 expressing T-cell binding to ICAM-1 (cell-based assay). To determine whether the drug/LFA-1 interaction is caused by competitive or allosteric inhibition, we analyzed the sedative drug effect on wild-type and high-affinity LFA-1 and a panel of monoclonal antibodies that bind to different regions of LFA-1. RESULTS Propofol at 10 to 100 μM inhibited ICAM-1 binding to LFA-1 in cell-free assays and cell-based assays (P < 0.05). However, dexmedetomidine and midazolam did not affect LFA-1/ICAM-1 binding. Propofol directly inhibits LFA-1 binding to ICAM-1 by binding near the ICAM-1 contact area in a competitive manner. At clinically relevant concentrations, propofol, but not dexmedetomidine or midazolam, inhibited IL-2 production (P < 0.05). Additionally, propofol inhibited lymphocyte proliferation (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Our study suggests that propofol competitively inhibits LFA-1 binding to ICAM-1 on T-cells and suppresses T-cell proliferation and IL-2 production, whereas dexmedetomidine and midazolam do not significantly influence these immunological assays.

Abstract
The integrins are a large family of cell adhesion molecules that are essential for the regulation of cell growth and function. The identification of key roles for integrins in a diverse range of diseases, including cancer, infection, thrombosis and autoimmune disorders, has revealed their substantial potential as therapeutic targets. However, so far, pharmacological inhibitors for only three integrins have received marketing approval. This article discusses the structure and function of integrins, their roles in disease and the chequered history of the approved integrin antagonists. Recent advances in the understanding of integrin function, ligand interaction and signalling pathways suggest novel strategies for inhibiting integrin function that could help harness their full potential as therapeutic targets.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Volatile anesthetics have been shown to modify immune cell functions via several mechanisms, some of which have been only partially elucidated. We demonstrated that isoflurane inhibits primary leukocyte integrin lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) by binding to the allosteric cavity critical for conformational activation to its high-affinity form. It remains to be determined whether the allosteric inhibition of LFA-1 by isoflurane can be generalized to other anesthetics such as sevoflurane. METHODS The effects of sevoflurane on the ability of LFA-1 to bind to its counter-ligand, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, was studied in leukocytes by flow cytometry. To examine whether sevoflurane acts directly on LFA-1, we measured ligand-binding using beads coated with purified LFA-1 protein. To distinguish between competitive versus allosteric inhibition, we analyzed the effects of sevoflurane on both wild-type and mutant-locked high-affinity LFA-1. One-way analysis of variance was employed for statistical analysis of the data. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to identify sevoflurane binding site(s). RESULTS Sevoflurane at clinically relevant concentrations inhibited the ligand-binding function of LFA-1 in leukocytes as well as in cell-free assays (P<0.05). Sevoflurane blocked wild-type but not locked high-affinity LFA-1, thereby demonstrating an allosteric mode of inhibition. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy revealed that sevoflurane bound to the allosteric cavity, to which LFA-1 allosteric antagonists and isoflurane also bind. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that sevoflurane also blocks the activation-dependent conformational changes of LFA-1 to the high-affinity form. The allosteric mode of action exemplified by sevoflurane and isoflurane via LFA-1 might represent one of the underlying mechanisms of anesthetic-mediated immunomodulation.

Abstract
Volatility and low-affinity hamper an ability to define molecular targets of the inhaled anesthetics. Photolabels have proven to be a useful approach in this regard, although none have closely mimicked contemporary drugs. We report here the synthesis and validation of azi-isoflurane, a compound constructed by adding a diazirinyl moiety to the methyl carbon of the commonly used general anesthetic isoflurane. Azi-isoflurane is slightly more hydrophobic than isoflurane, and more potent in tadpoles. This novel compound inhibits Shaw2 K(+) channel currents similarly to isoflurane and binds to apoferritin with enhanced affinity. Finally, when irradiated at 300 nm, azi-isoflurane adducts to residues known to line isoflurane-binding sites in apoferritin and integrin LFA-1, the only proteins with isoflurane binding sites defined by crystallography. This reagent should allow rapid discovery of isoflurane molecular targets and binding sites within those targets.

Abstract
Volatile anesthetics (VAs), such as isoflurane, induce a general anesthetic state by binding to specific targets (i.e., ion channels) in the central nervous system (CNS). Simultaneously, VAs modulate immune functions, possibly via direct interaction with alternative targets on leukocytes. One such target, the integrin lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1), has been shown previously to be inhibited by isoflurane. A better understanding of the mechanism by which isoflurane alters protein function requires the detailed information about the drug-protein interaction at an atomic level. Here, we describe the crystal structure of the LFA-1 ligand-binding domain (I domain) in complex with isoflurane at 1.6 A. We discovered that isoflurane binds to an allosteric cavity previously implicated as critical for the transition of LFA-1 from the low- to the high-affinity state. The isoflurane binding site in the I domain involves an array of amphiphilic interactions, thereby resembling a "common anesthetic binding motif" previously predicted for authentic VA binding sites. These results suggest that the allosteric modulation of protein function by isoflurane, as demonstrated for the integrin LFA-1, might represent a unified mechanism shared by the interactions of volatile anesthetics with targets in the CNS.
