Perioperative Levels of IL8 and IL18, but not IL6, are Associated with Nucleus Basalis Magnocellularis Atrophy Three Months after Surgery. J Neuroimmune Pharmacol 2024; 19:10. [PMID: 38483732 PMCID: PMC10940494 DOI: 10.1007/s11481-024-10110-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2023] [Accepted: 02/18/2024] [Indexed: 03/17/2024]
Abstract
Past studies have observed that brain atrophy may accelerate after surgical procedures. Furthermore, an association of systemic inflammation with neurodegeneration has been described. We hypothesize that postoperative interleukin (IL) levels in circulation as well as the perioperative change in interleukin levels are associated with increased postoperative atrophy in the Nucleus basalis magnocellularis (of Meynert, NBM) which is the major source of cortical acetylcholine. We analyzed data from the BioCog cohort which included patients ≥ 65 years presenting for elective major surgery (≥ 60min). Blood samples were taken before surgery and on the first postoperative day. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain and neuropsychological assessments were conducted before surgery and after three months follow-up. We used linear regression analysis to determine the association of three interleukins (IL6, IL8 and IL18) with NBM atrophy (in % volume change from baseline before surgery to follow-up), as well as to examine the associations of NBM atrophy and volume with postoperative cognitive ability and perioperative cognitive change. Receiver-operating curves were used to determine the prognostic value of preoperative interleukin levels. For IL8 (N = 97) and IL18 (N = 217), but not IL6 (N = 240), we observed significant associations of higher postoperative IL levels at the first postoperative day with higher NBM atrophy at three months after surgery. Subsequent analyses suggested that in both IL8 and IL18, this association was driven by a more general association of chronically elevated IL levels and NBM atrophy, reflected by preoperative IL concentrations, rather than IL response to surgery, measured as the difference between pre- and postoperative IL concentrations. At follow-up, NBM volume was positively associated with the level of cognitive performance, but NBM atrophy was not significantly related to perioperative cognitive change. Prognostic value of preoperative IL concentrations for NBM atrophy was low. Our results suggest that an association of postoperative interleukin levels with NBM atrophy is driven by preoperatively elevated interleukins due to pre-existing inflammation, rather than perioperative change in interleukin levels in response to surgery and anesthesia. The BioCog study has been registered at clinicaltrials.gov on Oct 15, 2014 (NCT02265263).

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a significant complication following surgery. The precise mechanisms underlying POCD remain elusive, although it is speculated that they involve central nervous system inflammation, oxidative stress and cellular apoptosis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of non-coding RNAs widely distributed in eukaryotes, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders and could potentially impact POCD. This review explores the association between miRNAs and POCD and provides an overview of the progress of current research on miRNAs in the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of POCD.

Int Immunopharmacol 2024; 126:111331. [PMID: 38061116 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2023.111331] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2023] [Revised: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 11/28/2023] [Indexed: 12/28/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Neuropathic pain significantly impairs quality of life, and effective interventions are limited. NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3 (NLRP3)-mediated microglial pyroptosis and the subsequent proinflammatory cytokine production are critical in exacerbating pain. Considering microglial pyroptosis as a potential target for developing specific analgesic interventions for neuropathic pain, our study investigated the pathogenesis and therapeutic targets in this condition. METHODS In vitro experiments involved the co-culture of the immortalized BV-2 microglia cell line with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to induce microglial pyroptosis. Differentially expressed microRNAs (miRNAs) were identified using high-throughput sequencing analysis. The downstream target genes of these miRNAs were determined through Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) databases, and the downstream target genes, combined with miRNAs, were predicted and verified through dual luciferase reporter gene assays. In vivo experiments were conducted to construct a chronic constriction injury (CCI) neuropathic pain model in rats and evaluate the analgesic effects of intrathecal injection of an adeno-associated virus vector (AAV) carrying miR-99b-3p. Gene expression was modulated through mimic or siRNA transfection. Western blot analysis assessed the expression of microglial pyroptosis and autophagy-related proteins, whereas RT-qPCR measured changes in proinflammatory cytokines expression. RESULTS LPS-stimulated up-regulation of proinflammatory cytokines in microglia, accompanied by NLRP3-dependent pyroptosis, including increased NLRP3, GSDMD-N, Caspase1-p20, and mature-IL-1β expression. High-throughput sequencing analysis revealed 16 upregulated and 10 downregulated miRNAs in LPS-stimulated microglia, with miR-99b-3p being the most downregulated. KEGG analysis revealed that the target genes of these miRNAs are primarily enriched in calcium, FoxO, and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signal pathways. Furthermore, overexpression of miR-99b-3p through mimic transfection significantly inhibited the inflammatory response and NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis by promoting autophagy levels in activated microglia. In addition, we predicted that the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of matrix metalloproteinase-13 (Mmp13) could bind to miR-99b-3p, and knockdown of Mmp13 expression through siRNA transfection similarly ameliorated enhanced proinflammatory cytokines expression and microglial pyroptosis by enhancing autophagy. In vivo, Mmp13 was co-localized with spinal dorsal horn microglia and was suppressed by intrathecal injection of the AAV-miR-99b-3p vector. Moreover, overpressed miR-99b-3p alleviated CCI-induced mechanical allodynia and neuroinflammation while suppressing pyroptosis by enhancing autophagy in the spinal cord of CCI rats. CONCLUSION miR-99b-3p exerts analgesic effects on neuropathic pain by targeting Mmp13. These antinociceptive effects are, at least in part, attributed to the promotion of autophagy, thereby inhibiting neuroinflammation and NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis in activated microglia.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD), a neurological complication after surgery, is common among the elderly in particular. Maternal expression gene 3 (MEG3) is a novel long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that contributes to glial cell activation and inflammation. We aim to further explore its role in POCD. Mice were induced with sevoflurane anesthesia and underwent orthopedic surgery to establish a POCD model. BV-2 microglia activation was induced by lipopolysaccharide. The overexpressed lentiviral plasmid lv-MEG3 and its control were injected into mice. pcDNA3.1-MEG3, has-miR-106a-5p mimic, and its negative control were transfected into BV-2 cells. The expressions of has-miR-106a-5p MEG3 and Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) in rat hippocampus and BV-2 cells were quantitatively detected. Levels of SIRT3, TNF-α, and IL-1β were detected by western blot, levels of TNF-α and IL-1β by ELISA, and expression of GSH-Px, SOD, and MDA by kits. The targeting relationship between MEG3 and has-miR-106a-5p was confirmed using bioinformatics and dual-luciferase reporter assay. LncRNA MEG3 was down-regulated in POCD mice, whereas has-miR-106a-5 levels were up-regulated. Overexpression of MEG3 could attenuate cognitive dysfunction and inflammatory response in POCD mice, inhibit lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammatory response and oxidative stress in BV-2 cells, and promote has-miR-106a through competitive binding with has-miR-106a-5-5 expression of target gene SIRT3. Overexpression of has-miR-106a-5p had a reverse effect on overexpression of MEG3 functioning on lipopolysaccharide-induced BV-2 cells. LncRNA MEG3 could inhibit the inflammatory response and oxidative stress via has-miR-106a-5p/SIRT3, thereby reducing POCD, which might be a potential biological target for the diagnosis and treatment of clinical POCD.

Abstract
Background and objective Postoperative neurocognitive dysfunction (PND) occurs in up to 54% of older patients, giving rise to the heavy psychological and economic burdens to patients and society. To date, the development of PND biomarkers remains a challenge. Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A2/B1 (hnRNPA2/B1) is an RNA-binding protein whose prion-like structure is prone to mutation and hence leads to neurodegenerative diseases, but its expression changes in PND remains unclear. Here, we detect the preoperative hnRNPA2/B1 level in patients with PND, and to explore its value in the prediction and diagnosis of PND. Methods The study included 161 elderly patients undergoing lumbar decompression and fusion in Nankai University Affinity the Third Central Hospital from September 2021 to July 2022. Neuropsychological and psychometric evaluations were performed before surgery, 1 week and 3 months after surgery to diagnose the occurrence of PND, then the peripheral blood was collected from patients before induction of anesthesia. The concentration in plasma of hnRNPA2/B1 and amyloid-β 42 were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The median fluorescence intensity and mRNA levels of hnRNPA2/B1 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells was detected by indirect intracellular staining flow cytometry and quantitative real-time PCR, respectively. Results The preoperative hnRNPA2/B1 level in patients with PND was higher both in short-time and long-time follow-up. We found significantly higher concentrations of hnRNPA2/B1 in PND at 7 days after surgery (median, 72.26 pg/mL vs. 54.95 pg/mL, p = 0.022) compared with patients without PND, and so as 3 months after surgery (median, 102.93 pg/mL vs. 56.38 pg/mL, p = 0.012). The area under the curve (AUC) was predicted to be 0.686 at 7 days after surgery and 0.735 at 3 months. In addition, when combining several clinical information, the diagnostic efficiency of hnRNPA2/B1 for PND could further increase (AUC, 0.707 at 7 days, 0.808 at 3 months). Conclusion Based on the findings reported here, hnRNPA2/B1 may serve as a new and powerful predictive biomarker to identify elderly patients with PND.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD), especially in elderly patients, is a serious complication characterized by impairment of cognitive and sensory modalities after surgery. The pathogenesis of POCD mainly includes neuroinflammation, neuronal apoptosis, oxidative stress, accumulation of Aβ, and tau hyperphosphorylation; however, the exact mechanism remains unclear. Non-coding RNA (ncRNA) may play an important role in POCD. Some evidence suggests that microRNA, long ncRNA, and circular RNA can regulate POCD-related processes, making them promising biomarkers in POCD diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. This article reviews the crosstalk between ncRNAs and POCD, and systematically discusses the role of ncRNAs in the pathogenesis and diagnosis of POCD. Additionally, we explored the possible mechanisms of ncRNA-associated POCD, providing new knowledge for developing ncRNA-based treatments for POCD.

Abstract
Our previous study showed that the plasma microRNA-221-3p level could serve as a biomarker for major depression or mood. This study aimed to further investigate the role of plasma microRNA-221-3p level in postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). Patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery were randomly assigned according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. POCD was diagnosed by the Z score method. The relative level of plasma microRNA-221-3p was decided by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Multiple logistic regression analysis and receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curves were used for the analysis of plasma microRNA-221-3p prediction performance for POCD. At 7 days post-surgery, the rate of POCD was 34.04%. Patients in the POCD group had a higher preoperative depression score, older age, and longer operation duration than that in the NPOCD group. The relative level of plasma microRNA-221-3p in the POCD group was 1.78 and 2.73 times higher than that in the NPOCD group at 1 day before and 7 days after the surgery, respectively. The relative content of plasma microRNA-221-3p at 7 days after operation was an independent risk factor for POCD. The ROC curves showed that the area under the curve was 0.938 for plasma microRNA-221-3p at postoperative 7 days, and the threshold for POCD detection was 12.33 with a sensitivity and specificity of 81.3% and 96.3%, respectively. Our results indicate that the plasma postoperative microRNA-221-3p levels could be an effective predictor for POCD after non-cardiac surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to identify microRNAs (miRNAs) involved in the development of perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND). METHODS Plasma exosomal miRNA expression was examined in patients before and after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) using microarray and qRT-PCR and these patients were diagnosed as PND later. Elderly rats were subjected to CPB, and the cognitive functions were examined. Bioinformatics analysis was conducted to predict the targets of miR-214-3p. Rats were administered rno-miR-214-3p agomir before or after CPB to investigate the role of miR-214-3p in PND development. RESULTS We identified 76 differentially expressed plasma exosomal miRNAs in PND patients after surgery (P<0.05, ∣log2FC∣>0.58), including the upregulated hsa-miR-214-3p (P=0.002399392). Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (PTGS2) was predicted as a miR-214-3p target. In rats, CPB reduced the platform crossing numbers and target quadrant stay time, accompanied with hippocampal neuronal necrosis. The rno-miR-214-3p level was significantly increased in plasma exosomes but decreased in rat hippocampus after surgery, exhibiting a negative correlation (P<0.001, r=-0.762). A negative correlation between miR-214-3p and PTGS2 protein expression was also observed in the hippocampus after surgery. Importantly, rno-miR-214-3p agomir treatment, before or after surgery, significantly increased the platform crossing numbers (P=0.035) and target quadrant stay time (P=0.029) compared with negative control. Hippocampal PTGS2 protein level was increased in the untreated surgery group and decreased in response to rno-miR-214-3p agomir treatment before or after surgery (both P<0.05 vs. negative control). CONCLUSION These data suggest that miR-214-3p/PTGS2 signaling contributes to the development of PND, serving as a potential therapeutic target for PND.

BMC Anesthesiol 2022; 22:75. [PMID: 35317728 PMCID: PMC8939177 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-022-01612-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2021] [Accepted: 03/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Although the incidence of postoperative delirium (POD) in the elderly after surgery are rising as individuals are living longer, the pathogenesis of POD remains poorly understood. It has been suggested that miRNA-320 may play a role in POD based on animal study and human study. Methods We first carried out an animal study, and designed and conducted a human study based on the result of animal study. The aged rats were randomly assigned to five groups: the control (C), anesthesia and surgery (AS), saline (NS), agomir-320 (AG), and antagomir-320 (AT) groups. Postoperative spatial learning and memory in rats were analyzed by the Morris water maze and the open field tests. The plasma levels of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), amyloid precursor protein (APP) proteins, miRNA320 and IGF-1mRNA were measured by ELISA and qRT-PCR, respectively. A total of 240 Chinese Han patients over 65 years who underwent tibial fracture internal fixation were included in the PNDABLE study. POD cases and non-POD controls (1:1 matched) were selected by an anesthesiologist using Confusion Assessment Method. Results For Group AS, the escape latency was significantly longer and the ratio of time spent in the target quadrant was significantly reduced, APP and miR-320 were upregulated and IGF-1mRNA was downregulated compared with Group C. For Group AG, the escape latency was significantly longer and the ratio of time spent in the target quadrant was significantly reduced, APP and miR-320 were upregulated and IGF-1mRNA was downregulated compared with Group AS. For Group AT, the escape latency was significantly reduced and the ratio of time spent in the target quadrant was significantly longer, APP and miR-320 were downregulated and IGF-1mRNAwas upregulated compared with Group AS. Compared with NPOD patients, the expressions of plasma miR-320 and APP protein were increased and the expression of plasma IGF-1 mRNA was decreased in POD patients after surgery. Conclusions MiRNA-320 might play a role in up-regulating the levels of IGF-1mRNA and APP protein, which offered a new target for POD treatment.

Perioperative platelet count in peripheral blood is associated with the early stage of PND after major orthopedic surgery: a prospective observational study. BMC Geriatr 2022; 22:200. [PMID: 35287583 PMCID: PMC8919528 DOI: 10.1186/s12877-022-02899-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2021] [Accepted: 03/04/2022] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) are common complications of major surgery among elderly patients, remarkably decreasing patients’ life quality. Platelet count has been proved to be an essential factor in inflammation. However, as far as we know, the relationship between platelet count and PND is not clear yet in the orthopedic area. PND could be a long-term disease, which sometimes lasts for several years, and it is meaningful to find a biomarker of PND at the early stage. Thus, we designed this study to find out the association between perioperative platelet count and occurrence of PND, and determine whether preoperative platelet count could be a biomarker of the early stage of PND. Methods A prospective observational study was performed on the patients who would take total knee arthroplasty or total hip arthroplasty. Their peripheral platelets were counted by blood routine examination 1 day before and 3 days after the surgery. And we assessed their neurocognitive functions 1 day before and 3 days after the surgery. These data were recorded and analyzed to find out the relationship between platelet count and the occurrence of PND. Results Eventually, 70 patients finished the whole process, and 14 of them developed PND. The median preoperative platelet count in the PND group was significantly higher than that in the non-PND group (239 vs 168 × 10^9/L, p = 0.009). Preoperative platelet count was an independent risk factor for PND (odds ratio = 1.014, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.000–1.027, P = 0.043) in the logistic multivariable regression, while the area under the curve of the receiver operating characteristic curve of the prediction model was 0.796 (95% CI 0.676–0.916). Conclusions The higher preoperative and postoperative level of platelet count in the peripheral blood were associated with the early stage of PND, and preoperative platelet count could be a potential predictor of the early stage of PND in patients undergoing major orthopedic surgeries.

Abstract
Postoperative recovery for patients (particularly elderly) will be commonly encountered for postoperative neurocognitive disorders. Although effort has been undertaken to better understand and prevent these disorders, little improvement has been observed, due to largely unknown mechanisms. Emerging evidence indicates that noncoding RNAs including microRNA(s), long noncoding RNA(s), and circular RNA(s) are promising biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, and novel pathways to reveal mechanisms of postoperative neurocognitive disorders. However, there has been little crosstalk between noncoding RNA biology and development of postoperative neurocognitive disorders. We discuss the major noncoding RNAs in mechanisms, diagnosis, risk-stratification, prognosis, and treatment in postoperative neurocognitive disorders in a novel approach.

J Neuroinflammation 2021; 18:68.

Abstract
Objective Neuroinflammation plays a critical role in central nervous system diseases. Exosomal miRNAs released from various cells are implicated in cell-to-cell communication. Prior studies have placed substantial emphasis on the role of cytokines in mast cell-microglia interactions during neuroinflammation. However, it has never been clearly determined whether exosomal miRNAs participate in the interaction between mast cells and microglia and thus mediate neuroinflammation. Methods The characteristics of exosomes isolated from cell culture supernatants were confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nanoparticle-tracking analysis (NTA) and Western blot. The transfer of PKH67-labelled exosomes and Cy3-labelled miR-409-3p was observed by fluorescence microscopy. Migration and activation of murine BV-2 microglial cells were evaluated through Transwell assays and immunofluorescence staining for Iba1 and CD68. CD86, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α were assessed via qRT-PCR and ELISA. MiR-409-3p was detected by qRT-PCR. Nr4a2 and NF-κB levels were measured by western blot. Regulatory effects were identified by luciferase reporter assays. Results Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated murine P815 mast cells secreted exosomes that were efficiently taken up by murine BV-2 cells, which promoted murine BV-2 cell migration and activation. LPS-P815 exosomes increased the CD86, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α levels in murine BV-2 microglia. Furthermore, activated mast cells delivered exosomal miR-409-3p to murine BV-2 microglia. Upregulated miR-409-3p promoted murine BV-2 microglial migration, activation and neuroinflammation by targeting Nr4a2 to activate the NF-κB pathway. Conclusion Exosomal miR-409-3p secreted from activated mast cells promotes microglial migration, activation and neuroinflammation by targeting Nr4a2 to activate the NF-κB pathway, which provides evidence that not only cytokines but also exosomal miRNAs participate in neuroinflammation. In the future, targeting exosomal miRNAs may provide new insights into neuroinflammation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Post-operative delirium (POD) and post-operative neurocognitive disorder (NCD) are frequently seen in the elderly. Development of biomarkers for pre-operative risk prediction is of major relevance. As inflammation present before surgery might predispose to POD and post-operative NCD development, we aim to determine associations between pre-operative C-reactive protein (CRP) and the incidence of POD and post-operative NCD. METHODS In this observational study, we analyzed 314 patients enrolled in the SuDoCo trial, who had a pre-operative CRP measurement the day before surgery. Primary outcomes were POD assessed according DSM-4 from day 1 until day 7 after surgery and post-operative NCD assessed 3 months after surgery. We conducted multivariable logistic regression analysis adjusted for age, sex, randomization, body mass index, MMSE, ASA status, infection/autoimmune disease/malignoma and types of surgery to determine associations between CRP with POD and post-operative NCD, respectively. RESULTS Pre-operative CRP was independently associated with POD [OR 1.158 (95% CI 1.040, 1.291); P = .008]. Patients with CRP values ≥5 mg/dL had a 4.8-fold increased POD risk [OR 4.771 (95% CI 1.765, 12.899; P = .002)] compared to patients with lower CRP values. However, no association was seen between pre-operative CRP and post-operative NCD [OR 0.552 (95% CI 0.193, 1.581); P = .269]. CONCLUSIONS Pre-operative CRP levels were independently associated with POD but not post-operative NCD after three months. Moreover, higher pre-operative CRP levels showed higher risk for POD. This strengthens the role of inflammation in the development of POD. Assessment of CRP before surgery might allow risk stratification of POD.

Abstract
Background Dexmedetomidine (Dex) was reported to exhibit anti-inflammatory effect in the nervous system. However, the mechanism by which Dex exhibits anti-inflammation effects on LPS-stimulated BV2 microglia cells remains unclear. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the role of Dex in LPS-stimulated BV2 cells. Methods The BV2 cells were stimulated by lipopolysaccharides (LPS). BV2 cells were infected with short-hairpin RNAs targeting NF-κB (NF-κB-shRNAs) and NF-κB overexpression lentivirus, respectively. In addition, miR-340 mimics or miR-340 inhibitor was transfected into BV2 cells, respectively. Meanwhile, the dual-luciferase reporter system assay was used to explore the interaction of miR-340 and NF-κB in BV2 cells. CCK-8 was used to detect the viability of BV2 cells. In addition, Western blotting was used to detect the level of NF-κB in LPS-stimulated BV2 cells. The levels of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-12, IL-10 and MCP-1 in LPS-stimulated BV2 cells were measured with ELISA. Results The level of miR-340 was significantly upregulated in Dex-treated BV2 cells. Meanwhile, the level of NF-κB was significantly increased in BV2 cells following infection with lenti-NF-κB, which was markedly reversed by Dex. LPS markedly increased the expression of NF-κB and proinflammatory cytokines in BV2 cells, which were reversed in the presence of Dex. Moreover, miR-340 mimics enhanced the anti-inflammatory effects of Dex in LPS-stimulated BV2 cells via inhibiting NF-κB and proinflammatory cytokines. Furthermore, Dex obviously inhibited LPS-induced phagocytosis in BV2 cells. Conclusion Taken together, our results suggested that Dex might exert anti-inflammatory effects in LPS-stimulated BV2 cells via upregulation of miR-340. Therefore, Dex might serve as a potential agent for the treatment of neuroinflammation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) affects a large number of post-surgery patients, especially for the elderly. However, the etiology of this neurocognitive disorder is largely unknown. Even if several studies have reported a small number of miRNAs as the essential modulatory factors in POCD, these findings are still rather limited. The aim of current study was to screen the POCD-related miRNAs in the hippocampus tissues and investigate the target genes of differentially expressed miRNAs and their biological functions underlying POCD pathophysiology. METHODS The miRNA microarray was used to find the abnormal expression of miRNAs in the hippocampus tissues from the POCD model mice to normal mice (Discovery cohort, 3 vs 3). The nominal significant results were validated in an independent sample of hippocampus tissues of 10 mice based on same miRNA microarray (Replication cohort, 5 vs 5). Expression level of the most significantly abnormal miRNA was further validated by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR). To determine the expression pattern among miRNAs and genes and detect the interactions, we conducted a weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) in the miRNAs and genes expression data from hippocampus tissue of wild type mice (n = 24). The target genes of miRNAs were predicted using the miRWalk3.0 software. Furthermore, we used the ClueGO software to decipher the pathways network and reveal the biological functions of target genes of miRNAs. RESULTS We found that nine miRNAs showed significant associations with POCD in both datasets. Among these miRNAs, mmu-miR-190a-3p was the most significant one. By performing WGCNA analysis, we found 25 co-expression modules, of which mmu-miR-190a-3p was significantly anti-correlated with red module. Moreover, in the red module, 314 genes were significantly enriched in four pathways such as axon guidance and calcium signaling pathway, which are well-documented to be associated with psychiatric disorders and brain development. Also, 169 of the 314 genes were highly correlated with mmu-miR-190a-3p, and four genes (Sphkap, Arhgef25, Tiam1, and Ntrk3) had putative binding sites at 3'-UTR of mmu-miR-190a-3p. Based on protein-protein network analysis, we detected that Tiam1 was a central gene regulated by the mmu-miR-190a-3p. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, we conclude that mmu-miR-190a-3p is involved in the etiology of POCD and may serve as a novel predictive indicator for POCD.

Analysis of postoperative cognitive dysfunction and influencing factors of dexmedetomidine anesthesia in elderly patients with colorectal cancer. Oncol Lett 2019; 18:3058-3064. [PMID: 31402961 PMCID: PMC6676718 DOI: 10.3892/ol.2019.10611] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2019] [Accepted: 05/28/2019] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Effect of dexmedetomidine-assisted general anesthesia on early postoperative cognitive dysfunctions in elderly patients with colorectal cancer was explored. In total, 140 patients with radical colorectal cancer under general anesthesia from March 2012 to June 2015 were enrolled in the Guizhou Provincial People's Hospital, including 80 patients in the dexmedetomidine group and 60 patients in the saline group. Surgery conditions were recorded, and the incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and cognitive function score (MMSE score) were compared between the two groups. Serum levels of S-100β protein (S-100β) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The anesthesia time and intraoperative blood loss in the experiment group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The MMSE scores of the two groups on the 1st and 3rd day after surgery were lower than those before surgery (P<0.05). The incidence rates of the experiment group were significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). The levels of serum IL-6 and S-100β were increased on the 1st and 3rd day after surgery compared with those before surgery (P<0.05). The levels of serum IL-6 and S-100β in the control group were significantly higher than those in the experiment group on the 1st and 3rd day after surgery (P<0.05). Age, duration of anesthesia, intraoperative blood loss, expression of IL-6 and S-100β were the influencing factors of POCD. Age ≥70 years, anesthesia duration ≥3 h, intraoperative blood loss ≥350 ml, and high expression of IL-6 and S-100β was an important factor related to the occurrence (P<0.05). Dexmedetomidine can significantly improve postoperative cognitive dysfunction in elderly patients with colorectal cancer, and the occurrence of cognitive dysfunction can be affected by age, duration of anesthesia, intraoperative blood loss and the high expression of IL-6 and S-100β.

Malondialdehyde on postoperative day 1 predicts postoperative cognitive dysfunction in elderly patients after hip fracture surgery. Biosci Rep 2019; 39:BSR20190166. [PMID: 31138765 PMCID: PMC6616043 DOI: 10.1042/bsr20190166] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2019] [Revised: 05/04/2019] [Accepted: 05/22/2019] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a great problem for anesthetized subjects and is associated with poor short- and long-term outcomes. We explored promising predictors for POCD in elderly patients after hip fracture surgery.Methods: Elderly subjects (aged ≥65 years) undergoing surgery for hip fracture were consecutively recruited. Neuropsychological assessments were performed 1 day preoperatively (baseline) and 7 days postoperatively, and POCD was defined using the 'Z scores' method. Clinical data and laboratory tests were compared between patients with and without POCD development. Binary univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted for risk factor assessment. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to investigate the predictive value of malondialdehyde (MDA) on postoperative day 1 (POD1) for POCD.Results: A total of 198 patients were finally enrolled in the analysis and 51 patients exhibited POCD within 7 postoperative days, with an incidence rate of 25.8%. MDA expression on POD1 (OR: 1.12, 95%CI: 1.03-1.23, P=0.017) was the only independent risk factor for POCD according to the final multivariate logistic regression analysis. ROC curve analysis indicated that MDA on POD1 was a predictor for POCD, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.683 and 95%CI of 0.590-0.775 (P<0.001).Conclusions: In conclusion, we demonstrated that MDA on POD1 was an independent risk factor for POCD in elderly subjects undergoing hip fracture surgery.

Liu X, Yu Y, Zhu S. Inflammatory markers in postoperative delirium (POD) and cognitive dysfunction (POCD): A meta-analysis of observational studies. PLoS One 2018; 13:e0195659. [PMID: 29641605 PMCID: PMC5895053 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0195659] [Citation(s) in RCA: 121] [Impact Index Per Article: 20.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2017] [Accepted: 03/27/2018] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to summarize and discuss the similarities and differences in inflammatory biomarkers in postoperative delirium (POD) and cognitive dysfunction (POCD). Methods A systematic retrieval of literature up to June 2017 in PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, the China National Knowledge Infrastructure database, and the Wanfang database was conducted. Extracted data were analyzed with STATA (version 14). The standardized mean difference (SMD) and the 95% confidence interval (95% CI) of each indicator were calculated using a random effect model. We also performed tests of heterogeneity, sensitivity analysis, assessments of bias, and meta-regression in this meta-analysis. Results A total of 54 observational studies were included. By meta-analysis we found significantly increased C-reactive protein (CRP) (9 studies, SMD 0.883, 95% CI 0.130 to 1.637, P = 0.022 in POD; 10 studies, SMD -0.133, 95% CI -0.512 to 0.246, P = 0.429 in POCD) and interleukin (IL)-6 (7 studies, SMD 0.386, 95% CI 0.054 to 0.717, P = 0.022 in POD; 16 studies, SMD 0.089, 95% CI -0.133 to 0.311, P = 0.433 in POCD) concentrations in both POD and POCD patients. We also found that the SMDs of CRP and IL-6 from POCD patients were positively correlated with surgery type in the meta-regression (CRP: Coefficient = 1.555365, P = 0.001, 10 studies; IL-6: Coefficient = -0.6455521, P = 0.086, 16 studies). Conclusion Available evidence from medium-to-high quality observational studies suggests that POD and POCD are indeed correlated with the concentration of peripheral and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) inflammatory markers. Some of these markers, such as CRP and IL-6, play roles in both POD and POCD, while others are specific to either one of them.

[PMID: 28832497 PMCID: PMC5618479 DOI: 10.3390/ijms18091830] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2017] [Revised: 08/14/2017] [Accepted: 08/18/2017] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
During surgery or infection, peripheral inflammation can lead to neuroinflammation, which is associated with cognitive impairment, neurodegeneration, and several neurodegenerative diseases. Dexmedetomidine, an α-2-adrenoceptor agonist, is known to exert anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties and reduces the incidence of postoperative cognitive impairments. However, on the whole the molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. This study aims to explore whether dexmedetomidine influences microRNAs (miRNAs) in a rat model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced neuroinflammation. Adult Wistar rats were injected with 1 mg/kg LPS intraperitoneal (i.p.) in the presence or absence of 5 µg/kg dexmedetomidine. After 6 h, 24 h, and 7 days, gene expressions of interleukin 1-β (IL1-β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and microRNA expressions of miR 124, 132, 134, and 155 were measured in the hippocampus, cortex, and plasma. Dexmedetomidine decreased the LPS-induced neuroinflammation in the hippocampus and cortex via significant reduction of the IL1-β and TNF-α gene expressions after 24 h. Moreover, the LPS-mediated increased expressions of miR 124, 132, 134, and 155 were significantly decreased after dexmedetomidine treatment in both brain regions. In plasma, dexmedetomidine significantly reduced LPS-induced miR 155 after 6 h. Furthermore, there is evidence that miR 132 and 134 may be suitable as potential biomarkers for the detection of neuroinflammation.
