Abstract
Several volatile anesthetics have presented neuroprotective functions in ischemic injury. This study investigates the effect of desflurane (Des) on neurons following oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) challenge and explores the underpinning mechanism. Mouse neurons HT22 were subjected to OGD, which significantly reduced cell viability, increased lactate dehydrogenase release, and promoted cell apoptosis. In addition, the OGD condition increased oxidative stress in HT22 cells, as manifested by increased ROS and MDA contents, decreased SOD activity and GSH/GSSG ratio, and reduced nuclear protein level of Nrf2. Notably, the oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis were substantially blocked by Des treatment. Bioinformatics suggested potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily A member 1 (Kcna1) as a target of Des. Indeed, the Kcna1 expression in HT22 cells was decreased by OGD but restored by Des treatment. Artificial knockdown of Kcna1 negated the neuroprotective effects of Des. By upregulating Kcna1, Des activated the Kv1.1 channel, therefore enhancing K+ currents and inducing neuronal repolarization. Pharmacological inhibition of the Kv1.1 channel reversed the protective effects of Des against OGD-induced injury. Collectively, this study demonstrates that Des improves electrical activity of neurons and alleviates OGD-induced neuronal injury by activating the Kcna1-dependent Kv1.1 channel.

Front Physiol 2023; 14:1249127. [PMID: 37791348 PMCID: PMC10544940 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2023.1249127] [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: 06/28/2023] [Accepted: 09/05/2023] [Indexed: 10/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Respiratory parameters in experimental animals are often characterised under general anaesthesia. However, anaesthesia regimes may alter the functional and mechanical properties of the respiratory system. While most anaesthesia regimes have been shown to affect the respiratory system, the effects of general anaesthesia protocols commonly used in animal models on lung function have not been systematically compared. Methods: The present study comprised 40 male Sprague-Dawley rats divided into five groups (N = 8 in each) according to anaesthesia regime applied: intravenous (iv) Na-pentobarbital, intraperitoneal (ip) ketamine-xylazine, iv propofol-fentanyl, inhaled sevoflurane, and ip urethane. All drugs were administered at commonly used doses. End-expiratory lung volume (EELV), airway resistance (Raw) and tissue mechanics were measured in addition to arterial blood gas parameters during mechanical ventilation while maintaining positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) values of 0, 3, and 6 cm H2O. Respiratory mechanics were also measured during iv methacholine (MCh) challenges to assess bronchial responsiveness. Results: While PEEP influenced baseline respiratory mechanics, EELV and blood gas parameters (p < 0.001), no between-group differences were observed (p > 0.10). Conversely, significantly lower doses of MCh were required to achieve the same elevation in Raw under ketamine-xylazine anaesthesia compared to the other groups. Conclusion: In the most frequent rodent model of respiratory disorders, no differences in baseline respiratory mechanics or function were observed between commonly used anaesthesia regimes. Bronchial hyperresponsiveness in response to ketamine-xylazine anaesthesia should be considered when designing experiments using this regime. The findings of the present study indicate commonly used anaesthetic regimes allow fair comparison of respiratory mechanics in experimental animals undergoing any of the examined anaesthesia protocols.

Analgaesic efficacy of single-injection serratus anterior plane block for breast surgery: A systematic review, meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis of randomised controlled trials. Indian J Anaesth 2023; 67:343-356. [PMID: 37303883 PMCID: PMC10248900 DOI: 10.4103/ija.ija_919_22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2022] [Revised: 01/16/2023] [Accepted: 03/08/2023] [Indexed: 06/13/2023] Open
Abstract
There is conflicting evidence regarding the analgaesic efficacy of single-shot serratus anterior plane block (SAP) for breast surgery. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the analgaesic efficacy of SAP compared with non-block care (NBC) and other regional blocks, i.e. paravertebral block (PVB) and modified pectoral nerve block (PECS block) for breast surgery. PubMed, Embase, Scopus, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched. We included randomized controlled trials reporting the use of the SAP block in adult breast surgery. The primary outcome was postoperative oral morphine equivalent (OME) consumption for up to 24 hours. Random-effects models were used to pool results and mean difference (MD), and odds ratio (OR) was calculated for continuous and dichotomous outcomes, respectively. GRADE guidelines were used to evaluate the strength of evidence, and trial sequential analysis (TSA) was performed to provide certainty to the conclusion. Twenty-four trials enrolling 1789 patients were included. Moderate strength evidence suggested that SAP provided a significant reduction in 24-hour OME compared with NBC [MD - 24.9 mg (95% CI - 41.54, -8.25; P < 0.001, I2 = 99.68%)]. TSA ruled out the possibility of false-positive results. Subgroup analysis for the SAP demonstrated that the superficial plane approach was more effective in reducing opioid consumption than the deep approach. The odds of developing PONV were significantly lower in SAP compared to NBC. Compared with PVB and PECS, SAP block was not statistically different for 24-hour OME and time to first rescue analgaesia. Single-shot SAP reduced opioid consumption, prolonged analgaesia duration, lowered pain scores, and decreased the incidence of PONV compared to NBC. There was no statistically significant difference in the studied endpoints between SAP, PVB, and PECS blocks.

Abstract
General anesthetics work through a variety of molecular mechanisms while resulting in the common end point of sedation and loss of consciousness. Generally, the administration of common anesthetics induces reduction in synaptic excitation while promoting synaptic inhibition. Exogenous modulation of the anesthetics' synaptic effects can help determine the neuronal pathways involved in anesthesia. For example, both animal and human studies have shown that exogenously induced increases in acetylcholine in the brain can elicit wakeful-like behavior despite the continued presence of the anesthetic. However, the underlying mechanisms of anesthesia reversal at the cellular level have not been investigated. Here we apply a computational model of a network of excitatory and inhibitory neurons to simulate the network-wide effects of anesthesia, due to changes in synaptic inhibition and excitation, and their reversal by cholinergic activation through muscarinic receptors. We use a differential evolution algorithm to fit model parameters to match measures of spiking activity, neuronal connectivity, and network dynamics recorded in the visual cortex of rodents during anesthesia with desflurane in vivo. We find that facilitating muscarinic receptor effects of acetylcholine on top of anesthetic-induced synaptic changes predicts the reversal of anesthetic suppression of neurons' spiking activity, functional connectivity, as well as pairwise and population interactions. Thus, our model predicts a specific neuronal mechanism for the cholinergic reversal of anesthesia consistent with experimental behavioral observations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The pupillary dilation reflex (PDR), the change in pupil size after a nociceptive stimulus, has been used to assess antinociception during anesthesia. The aim of this study was to compare the antinociceptive properties of sevoflurane and desflurane by measuring the PDR amplitude. METHODS Seventy patients between 20 and 55 years of age were randomly allocated to receive either sevoflurane or desflurane. The PDR amplitude after an electrical standardized noxious stimulation (SNT) was measured using an infrared pupillometer under 1.0 minimum alveolar concentration (MAC). The pupil diameter was measured from 5 seconds before to 5 minutes after the SNT. The mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), and bispectral index (BIS) were also measured immediately before and after SNT as well as 1 minute and 5 minutes after SNT. The primary outcome was the maximum percent increase from the prestimulation value of the pupil diameter, and the secondary outcomes were the maximum percent increase from the prestimulation value of the MAP, HR, and BIS after SNT. RESULTS The maximum percent increase of the pupil diameter after SNT was not different between the 2 groups (median [first quartile to third quartile], 45.1 [29.3-80.3] vs 43.4 [27.0-103.1]; median difference, -0.3 [95% confidence interval, -16.0 to 16.5]; P = .986). Before SNT, the MAP was higher under 1.0 MAC of sevoflurane than desflurane; however, the maximum percent increase of MAP, HR, and BIS was not different between the 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS The amount of change in the PDR amplitude, MAP, and HR after SNT was not different between sevoflurane and desflurane anesthesia. This result might suggest that sevoflurane and desflurane may not have different antinociceptive properties at equivalent MAC.

Abstract
Neural interfaces typically focus on one or two sites in the motoneuron system simultaneously due to the limitation of the recording technique, which restricts the scope of observation and discovery of this system. Herein, we built a system with various electrodes capable of recording a large spectrum of electrophysiological signals from the cortex, spinal cord, peripheral nerves, and muscles of freely moving animals. The system integrates adjustable microarrays, floating microarrays, and microwires to a commercial connector and cuff electrode on a wireless transmitter. To illustrate the versatility of the system, we investigated its performance for the behavior of rodents during tethered treadmill walking, untethered wheel running, and open field exploration. The results indicate that the system is stable and applicable for multiple behavior conditions and can provide data to support previously inaccessible research of neural injury, rehabilitation, brain-inspired computing, and fundamental neuroscience.

Abstract
Experiments on pain processing in animals face several methodological challenges including the reproducible application of painful stimuli. Ideally, behavioral and physiological correlates of pain should be assessed in freely behaving mice, avoiding stress, fear or behavioral restriction as confounding factors. Moreover, the time of pain-evoked brain activity should be precisely related to the time of stimulation, such that pain-specific neuronal activity can be unambiguously identified. This can be achieved with laser-evoked heat stimuli which are also well established for human pain research. However, laser-evoked neuronal potentials are rarely investigated in awake unrestrained rodents, partially due to the practical difficulties in precisely and reliably targeting and triggering stimulation. In order to facilitate such studies we have developed a versatile stimulation and recording system for freely moving mice. The custom-made apparatus can provide both laser- and mechanical stimuli with simultaneous recording of evoked potentials and behavioral responses. Evoked potentials can be recorded from superficial and deep brain areas showing graded pain responses which correlate with pain-specific behavioral reactions. Non-painful mechanical stimuli can be applied as a control, yielding clearly different electrophysiological and behavioral responses. The apparatus is suited for simultaneous acquisition of precisely timed electrophysiological and behavioral evoked responses in freely moving mice. Besides its application in pain research it may be also useful in other fields of sensory physiology.
