Abstract
The early developing brain is especially vulnerable to anesthesia, which can result in long lasting functional changes. We examined the effects of early-life propofol on adult excitatory-inhibitory balance and behavior. Postnatal day 7 male mice were exposed to propofol (250 mg/kg i.p.) and anesthesia was maintained for 2 h; control mice were given the same volume of isotonic saline and treated identically. The behavior and electrophysiology experiments were conducted when the mice were adults. We found that a 2-h neonatal propofol exposure did not significantly reduce paired pulse inhibition, alter the effect of muscimol (3 µM) to inhibit field excitatory postsynaptic potentials or alter the effect of bicuculline (100 µM) to increase the population spike in the CA1 region of hippocampal slices from adult mice. Neonatal propofol did not alter the evoked seizure response to pentylenetetrazol in adult mice. Neonatal propofol did not affect anxiety, as measured in the open field apparatus, depression-like behavior, as measured by the forced swim test, or social interactions with novel mice, in either the three-chamber or reciprocal social tests. These results were different from those with neonatal sevoflurane which demonstrated reduced adult GABAergic inhibition, increased seizure susceptibility and reduced social interaction. Even though sevoflurane and propofol both prominently enhance GABA inhibition, they have unique properties that alter the long-term effects of early-life exposure. These results indicate that clinical studies grouping several general anesthetic agents in a single group should be interpreted with great caution when examining long-term effects.

Sevoflurane-induced amnesia is associated with inhibition of hippocampal cell ensemble activity after learning. Biol Open 2022; 11:286145. [PMID: 36541652 PMCID: PMC9793868 DOI: 10.1242/bio.059666] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2022] [Accepted: 11/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
General anesthesia could induce amnesia, however the mechanism remains unclear. We hypothesized that suppression of neuronal ensemble activity in the hippocampus by anesthesia during the post-learning period causes retrograde amnesia. To test this hypothesis, two experiments were conducted with sevoflurane anesthesia (2.5%, 30 min): a hippocampus-dependent memory task, the context pre-exposure facilitation effect (CPFE) procedure to measure memory function and in vivo calcium imaging to observe neural activity in hippocampal CA1 during context exploration and sevoflurane/home cage session. Sevoflurane treatment just after context pre-exposure session impaired the CPFE memory, suggesting sevoflurane induced retrograde amnesia. Calcium imaging showed sevoflurane treatment prevented neuronal activity in CA1. Further analysis of neuronal activity with non-negative matrix factorization, which extracts neural ensemble activity based on synchronous activity, showed that sevoflurane treatment reduced the reactivation of neuronal ensembles between during context exploration just before and one day after sevoflurane inhalation. These results suggest that sevoflurane treatment immediately after learning induces amnesia, resulting from suppression of reactivation of neuronal ensembles.

Exposure to Sevoflurane, But Not Ketamine, During Early-life Brain Development has Long-Lasting Effects on GABA A Receptor Mediated Inhibitory Neurotransmission. Neuroscience 2021; 472:116-127. [PMID: 34384844 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2021.08.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2021] [Revised: 07/30/2021] [Accepted: 08/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
Understanding the different mechanisms associated with different anesthetic targeted receptors is critical towards identifying accurate long-term outcome measures as a result of early-life anesthetic exposure. We examined changes in GABAA receptor mediated neurotransmission by a predominately GABAA receptor targeted anesthetic, sevoflurane or a predominately NMDA receptor targeted anesthetic, ketamine. Postnatal day 7 male mice were exposed to sevoflurane or ketamine and examined as adults for changes in inhibitory neurotransmission and its associated change in induced seizure activity. Paired pulse stimulation experiment showed that early-life sevoflurane treated mice had significantly less hippocampal CA1 inhibition later in life. There was significantly increased CA1 excitatory output in the sevoflurane treated group compared to the no sevoflurane treated group after the GABA agonist muscimol. Similar to our previously established data for early-life sevoflurane, here we established early-life ketamine administration resulted in neurodevelopmental behavioral changes later in life. However, muscimol did not produce a significant difference on the excitatory CA1 output between early-life ketamine group and saline group. While sevoflurane treated mice showed significantly higher induced seizure intensities and shorter latency periods to reach seizure intensity stage 5 (Racine score) compared with no sevoflurane treated mice, this phenomenon was not observed in the ketamine vs. saline treated groups. Early-life sevoflurane, but not ketamine, exposure reduced GABAergic inhibition and enhanced seizure activity later in life. The results indicate that early-life exposure to different anesthetics lead to distinct long-term effects and their unique pathways require mechanistic studies to understand induced long-lasting changes in the brain.
