Abstract
BACKGROUND Sevoflurane treatment increases the incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD), and patients with POCD show a decline in cognitive abilities compared to preoperative levels. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate whether the activation of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7nAChR) and the expression of M1 acetylcholine receptor (mAChR M1) in the hippocampus affects the cognitive function of aged rats. METHODS Forty-eight Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats of 1-week- and 12-months-old were divided into eight groups: four groups for α7nAChR and four groups for mAChR M1, respectively. All SD rats received 1.0-02% sevoflurane for α7nAChR and 1.0-02% sevoflurane for mAChR M1 for 2-6 h, respectively. The Y-maze test was used to assess the ability to learn and memory after receiving sevoflurane for 7 days at the same moment portion. RT-PCR was used to determine the expression of α7nAChR and mAChR M1 in the hippocampus of rats. RESULTS The α7nAChR mitigated the formation of sevoflurane-induced memory impairment by modulating the translocation of NR2B from the intracellular reservoir to the cell surface reservoir within the hippocampus. Next, sevoflurane-induced decline of cognitive function and significantly decreased mAChR M1 expression at mRNA levels. CONCLUSION α7nAChR regulates the trafficking of NR2B in the hippocampus of rats via the Src-family tyrosine kinase (SFK) pathway. This regulation is associated with cognitive deficits induced by sevoflurane in hippocampal development. Sevoflurane affects the cognitive function of rats by suppressing the mAChR M1 expression at mRNA levels in the hippocampus.

[PMID: 38928480 PMCID: PMC11204258 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25126774] [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: 04/25/2024] [Revised: 06/10/2024] [Accepted: 06/18/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Our study aimed to investigate the role of ferroptosis in sevoflurane-induced hearing impairment and explore the mechanism of the microRNA-182-5p (miR-182-5p)/Glutathione Peroxidase 4 (GPX4) pathway in sevoflurane-induced ototoxicity. Immunofluorescence staining was performed using myosin 7a and CtBP2. Cell viability was assessed using the CCK-8 kit. Fe2+ concentration was measured using FerroOrange and Mi-to-FerroGreen fluorescent probes. The lipid peroxide level was assessed using BODIPY 581/591 C11 and MitoSOX fluorescent probes. The auditory brainstem response (ABR) test was conducted to evaluate the hearing status. Bioinformatics tools and dual luciferase gene reporter analysis were used to confirm the direct targeting of miR-182-5p on GPX4 mRNA. GPX4 and miR-182-5p expression in cells was assessed by qRT-PCR and Western blot. Ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) pretreatment significantly improved hearing impairment and damage to ribbon synapses in mice caused by sevoflurane exposure. Immunofluorescence staining revealed that Fer-1 pretreatment reduced intracellular and mitochondrial iron overload, as well as lipid peroxide accumulation. Our findings indicated that miR-182-5p was upregulated in sevoflurane-exposed HEI-OC1 cells, and miR-182-5p regulated GPX4 expression by binding to the 3'UTR of GPX4 mRNA. The inhibition of miR-182-5p attenuated sevoflurane-induced iron overload and lipid peroxide accumulation. Our study elucidated that the miR-182-5p/GPX4 pathway was implicated in sevoflurane-induced ototoxicity by promoting ferroptosis.

Abstract
Prolonged sevoflurane anesthesia is the primary factor contributing to the development of perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND). Recent studies have highlighted neuronal apoptosis and abnormal dendritic structures as crucial features of PND. Astrocytes-derived exosomes (ADEs) have been identified as carriers of microRNAs (miRNAs), playing a vital role in cell-to-cell communication through transmitting genetic material. Nevertheless, the specific mechanisms by which miRNAs in ADEs contribute to sevoflurane-induced cognitive deficit are currently unknown. Through a series of in vivo and in vitro experiments, we demonstrated that ADEs contributed to improved neurocognitive outcomes by reducing neuronal apoptosis and promoting dendritic development. Our miRNA microarray analysis revealed a significant increase in the expression level of miR-26a-5p within ADEs. Furthermore, we identified NCAM as the downstream target gene of miR-26a-5p. Subsequent gain- and loss-of-function experiments were conducted to validate the role of the miR-26a-5p/NCAM axis. Finally, we found that the AKT/GSK3-β/CRMP2 signaling pathway was involved in regulating neurons through exosomal miR-26a-5p. Taken together, our findings suggest that the treatment with miR-26a-5p in ADEs can improve neurocognitive outcomes induced by long-term sevoflurane anesthesia, suggesting a promising approach for retarding the progress of PND.

Abstract
Pediatricians use sevoflurane due to its fast action and short recovery time. However, studies have shown that repeated exposure to anesthesia can affect learning and memory. Melatonin, an indole-type neuroendocrine hormone, has significant anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective properties. Melatonin's impact on cognitive behavior in sevoflurane-anesthetized males and females of the Wistar rats during preadolescence was examined in this research. The cognitive function was evaluated by shuttle box and morris water maze tests, while interleukin-10, Catalase (CAT), Malondialdehyde (MDA), and Tumor Necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α) were evaluated using ELISA kits. The expression levels of the apoptosis-linked proteins, Bax, Bcl-2, and caspase-3, were determined using the western blotting technique. The learning and memory latencies of the rats were more significant in the sevoflurane groups than in the control group; however, the latencies were significantly shorter in the sevoflurane and melatonin groups than in the control group. The levels of MDA, TNF-α, Bax, and caspase-3 were significantly higher in the sevoflurane groups than in the control group. We also found that the levels of CAT and Bcl-2 were significantly reduced in the sevoflurane groups compared to the control group. Increasing levels of CAT, Bcl-2, and decreasing levels of MDA, TNF-α, Bax, and caspase-3 in response to melatonin indicate a possible contribution to the recovery from the sevoflurane impairment. Melatonin shows neuroprotective effects in male and female rats with sevoflurane-induced cognitive impairment. This suggests melatonin could be a valuable treatment for learning and memory deficits resulting from repeated exposure to sevoflurane, possibly by controlling apoptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammation.

Abstract
Our research aimed at investigating the protective effects in aged mice exposed to sevoflurane anesthesia. To assess learning and memory abilities and exploratory behavior, the novel object recognition (NOR) test, Morris water maze (MWM) test, and open field test were employed. Commercial kits were used to measure levels of malondialdehyde, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase activity, superoxide dismutase activity, catalase activity, and iron. The messenger RNA and protein levels of ferritin heavy chain 1, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), heme oxygenase-1, and glutathione peroxidase 4 in the hippocampus were detected. Treatment with melatonin significantly ameliorated the decrease in exploration time of novel objects and the discrimination index induced by sevoflurane anesthesia. Melatonin also reduced escape latencies and increased the time spent in the target quadrant in the MWM test. In the open field test, melatonin-treated mice exhibited greater exploratory activity, including longer distances traveled and a higher number of rearing events. Further, melatonin treatment markedly decreased the levels of oxidative stress markers and iron in the hippocampus of aged mice exposed to sevoflurane anesthesia. However, the beneficial effects of melatonin were significantly attenuated following treatment with the Nrf2 inhibitor ML385. Our results suggest that melatonin could alleviate learning and memory impairment induced by sevoflurane anesthesia in aged mice through its antioxidant properties, partially through the Nrf2 pathway.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a cluster of cognitive problems that may arise after surgery. POCD symptoms include memory loss, focus inattention, and communication difficulties. Inflammasomes, intracellular multiprotein complexes that control inflammation, may have a significant role in the development of POCD. It has been postulated that the NLRP3 inflammasome promotes cognitive impairment by triggering the inflammatory response in the brain. Nevertheless, there are many gaps in the current literature to understand the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms and develop future therapy. This review article underlines the limits of our current knowledge about the NLRP3 (NOD-, LRR- and pyrin domain-containing protein 3) inflammasome and POCD. We first discuss inflammasomes and their types, structures, and functions, then summarize recent evidence of the NLRP3 inflammasome's involvement in POCD. Next, we propose a hypothesis that suggests the involvement of inflammasomes in multiple organs, including local surgical sites, blood circulation, and other peripheral organs, leading to systemic inflammation and subsequent neuronal dysfunction in the brain, resulting in POCD. Research directions are then discussed, including analyses of inflammasomes in more clinical POCD animal models and clinical trials, studies of inflammasome types that are involved in POCD, and investigations into whether inflammasomes occur at the surgical site, in circulating blood, and in peripheral organs. Finally, we discuss the potential benefits of using new technologies and approaches to study inflammasomes in POCD. A thorough investigation of inflammasomes in POCD might substantially affect clinical practice.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD), an important postoperative neurological complication, is very common and has an elevated incidence in elderly patients. Sevoflurane, an inhaled anesthetic, has been demonstrated to be associated with POCD in both clinical and animal studies. However, how to prevent POCD remains unclear. Minocycline, a commonly used antibiotic can cross the blood-brain barrier and exert an inhibitory effect on inflammation in the central nervous system. The present work aimed to examine the protective effect and mechanism of minocycline on sevoflurane-induced POCD in aged mice. We found that 3% sevoflurane administered 2 h a day for 3 consecutive days led to cognitive impairment in aged animals. Further investigation revealed that sevoflurane impaired synapse plasticity by causing apoptosis and neuroinflammation and thus induced cognitive dysfunction. However, minocycline pretreatment (50 mg/kg, i.p, 1 h prior to sevoflurane exposure) significantly attenuated learning and memory impairments associated with sevoflurane in aged animals by suppressing apoptosis and neuroinflammation. Moreover, a mechanistic analysis showed that minocycline suppressed sevoflurane-triggered neuroinflammation by inhibiting Notch signaling. Similar results were also obtained in vitro. Collectively, these findings suggested minocycline may be an effective drug for the prevention of sevoflurane-induced POCD in elderly patients.

Abstract
Introduction: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia among older persons. This study looked at how Augmentin affected behavior, gene expression, and apoptosis in rats in which AD had been induced by scopolamine.Methods: The rats were divided into five groups: control, sham, memantine, Augmentin, and pre-Augmentin (the last group received Augmentin before scopolamine administration and was treated with memantine). A Morris water maze was utilized to measure spatial memory in the animals, and real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) and flow cytometry were employed to analyze gene expression and neuronal cell apoptosis, respectively.Results: Memantine and Augmentin increased spatial memory in healthy rats. The use of scopolamine impaired spatial memory. Both Augmentin and memantine improved spatial memory in AD rats, particularly in the group that received memantine; however, the outcomes were more substantial when Augmentin was administered before scopolamine was given to induce AD. Furthermore, the expression of presenilin-2 (PSEN2) and inositol-trisphosphate 3-kinase B (ITPKB) increased, whereas the expression of DEAD-box helicase 5 (DDX5) fell in the AD-treated groups; however, the results were more substantial after combination therapy. According to flow cytometry studies, Augmentin pre-treatment reduced apoptosis in AD rats.Discussion: The results showed that administering Augmentin to AD rats before memantine improved their spatial memory, reduced neuronal cell death, upregulated protective genes, and suppressed genes involved in AD pathogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a common complication with its pathophysiological mechanisms not been fully elucidated. Pyroptosis is a novel type of pro-inflammatory cell death and considered to be associated with cognitive dysfunction. Therefore, our study aimed to examine the effect of pyroptosis on sevoflurane-induced cognitive impairment in aged mice as well as its underlying mechanism. METHODS A mice model of cognitive impairment was established by sevoflurane exposure and the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), N-GSDMD, cleaved caspase-1, ASC, IL-1β and IL-18, and NLRP3 in hippocampus was determined. To explore the underlying mechanism, a pyroptosis inhibitor, necrosulfonamide (NSA), and a ROS scavenger, N-acetylcysteine (NAC), were administrated before sevoflurane exposure both in vitro and in vivo. Neurobehavioral tests, western blot, transmission electron microscope (TEM) observation, and immunofluorescence staining were performed. RESULTS Sevoflurane induced hippocampal pyroptosis in the cognitive impairment model. NSA effectively inhibited the pyroptosis and improved cognitive function. Co-labeled immunofluorescence staining suggested sevoflurane induces microglial pyroptosis. Sevoflurane induced pyroptosis accompanied with ROS accumulation in a dose-independent manner in BV2 cells, and NAC effectively reduce the levels of ROS and pyroptosis through NLRP3 inflammasome pathway in both vitro and vivo. Furthermore, NAC could also alleviate sevoflurane-induced cognitive dysfunction. CONCLUSIONS Microglial pyroptosis in hippocampus mediates sevolfurane-induced cognitive impairment in aged mice via ROS-NLRP3 inflammasome pathway. Both pyroptosis inhibition and ROS scavenging might be potential approaches to ameliorate sevoflurane-induced neurocognitive dysfunction.

Abstract
Although both can cause DNA damage, the combined impact of volatile anesthetics halothane/sevoflurane/isoflurane and radiotherapeutic exposure on sensitive brain cells in vivo has not been previously analyzed. Healthy Swiss albino male mice (240 in total, 48 groups) were exposed to either halothane/sevoflurane/isoflurane therapeutic doses alone (2 h); 1 or 2 gray of gamma radiation alone; or combined exposure. Frontal lobe brain samples from five animals were taken immediately and 2, 6, and 24 h after exposure. DNA damage and cellular repair index were analyzed using the alkaline comet assay and the tail intensity parameter. Elevated tail intensity levels for sevoflurane/halothane were the highest at 6 h and returned to baseline within 24 h for sevoflurane, but not for halothane, while isoflurane treatment caused lower tail intensity than control values. Combined exposure demonstrated a slightly halothane/sevoflurane protective and isoflurane protective effect, which was stronger for 2 than for 1 gray. Cellular repair indices and tail intensity histograms indicated different modes of action in DNA damage creation. Isoflurane/sevoflurane/halothane preconditioning demonstrated protective effects in sensitive brain cells in vivo. Owing to the constant increases in the combined use of radiotherapy and volatile anesthetics, further studies should explore the mechanisms behind these effects, including longer and multiple exposure treatments and in vivo brain tumor models.

Abstract
Postoperative neurocognitive impairment (POCD) is a common complication after surgery and anesthesia, especially in elderly patients. Avenanthramide-C (AVC) test is a vascular endothelial cell adhesion molecule inhibitor with strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect and mechanism of AVC on POCD in aged rats to clarify the effect of AVC on POCD in aged rats. The aging rat model was established by continuous 200 mg/kg propofol anesthesia. Repeated propofol anesthesia could severely impair spatial learning ability, memory and cognitive function, and could promote hippocampal apoptosis, oxidative stress injury, neuroinflammation and ferroptosis in aging rats. In addition, AVC not only improved cognitive dysfunction, but also significantly inhibited apoptosis, neuroinflammatory response, ferroptosis and oxidative stress level in the hippocampus of aging rats induced by repeated anesthesia. Further mechanistic studies manifested that the above protective effects of AVC on aging rats induced by repeated propofol anesthesia may be achieved by activating Nrf2/ARE pathway activity. AVC pretreatment has a preventive effect on cognitive dysfunction induced by repeated propofol anesthesia in aging rats, and the preventive effect of AVC may be realized by activating the Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway activity. Our results demonstrate that AVC preconditioning reduces postoperative neuronal loss and neuroinflammation, activates the Nrf2/ARE pathway, reduces oxidative stress injury, and improves POCD in aged rats.

IRANIAN JOURNAL OF PHARMACEUTICAL RESEARCH : IJPR 2022; 21:e133971. [PMID: 36896324 PMCID: PMC9990511 DOI: 10.5812/ijpr-133971] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2022] [Revised: 12/31/2022] [Accepted: 01/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2023]
Abstract
Background Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) can be described as a clinical phenomenon characterized by cognitive impairment in patients, particularly elderly patients, after anesthesia and surgery. Researchers have focused on the probable effect of general anesthesia drugs on cognitive functioning status in older adults. Melatonin is an indole-type neuroendocrine hormone with broad biological activity and potent anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and neuroprotective effects. This study investigated the effects of melatonin on cognitive behavior in aged mice anesthetized with sevoflurane. In addition, melatonin's molecular mechanism was determined. Objectives This study aimed to investigate the mechanisms of melatonin against sevoflurane-induced neurotoxicity. Methods A total of 94 aged C57BL/6J mice were categorized into different groups, namely control (control + melatonin (10 mg/kg)), sevoflurane (sevoflurane + melatonin (10 mg/kg)), sevoflurane + melatonin (10 mg/kg) + phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt) inhibitor LY294002 (30 mg/kg), and sevoflurane + melatonin (10 mg/kg) + mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor (10 mg/kg). The open field and Morris water maze tests were utilized to assess the neuroprotective effects of melatonin on sevoflurane-induced cognitive impairment in aged mice. The expression levels of the apoptosis-linked proteins, PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway, and pro-inflammatory cytokines in the brain's hippocampus region were determined using the Western blotting technique. The apoptosis of the hippocampal neurons was observed using the hematoxylin and eosin staining technique. Results Neurological deficits in aged, sevoflurane-exposed mice were significantly decreased after melatonin treatment. Mechanistically, melatonin treatment restored sevoflurane-induced down-regulated PI3K/Akt/mTOR expression and significantly attenuated sevoflurane-induced apoptotic cells and neuroinflammation. Conclusions The findings of this study have highlighted the neuroprotective effect of melatonin on sevoflurane-induced cognitive impairment via regulating the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway, which might be effective in the clinical treatment of elderly patients with anesthesia-induced POCD.

Abstract
Background Surgery under general anesthesia leads to neural injury, especially in older patients. Sevoflurane anesthesia without surgery for 2 h does not induce neural injury, however, whether prolonger sevoflurane anesthesia without surgery has the same consequence is still unknown. Methods In the present study, aged marmosets were exposed to a clinical concentration of sevoflurane (1.5–2%) for 6 h to access the effects of prolonged sevoflurane anesthesia on the levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), Caspase3 activity and myelin formation in the brain. Results Sevoflurane anesthesia did not alter the expression of IL-6 (120.1 ± 2.21 vs. 120.8 ± 2.25, p = 0.74), TNF-α (189.3 ± 31.35 vs. 218.7 ± 21.47, p = 0.25) and Caspase3 (57.35 ± 1.54 vs. 58.67 ± 1.19, p = 0.53) in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of aged marmosets. The amount of MBP expression (60.99 ± 6.21 vs. 58.91 ± 2.71, p = 0.77) did not change following sevoflurane exposure. Conclusion Sevoflurane anesthesia did not increase the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α, activated the the expression of Caspase3, and induced myelination deficits in the PFC of aged marmosets.

Melatonin reduces the endoplasmic reticulum stress and polyubiquitinated protein accumulation induced by repeated anesthesia exposure in Caenorhabditis elegans. Sci Rep 2022; 12:5783. [PMID: 35388108 PMCID: PMC8986834 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-09853-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2021] [Accepted: 03/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress has been linked to anesthesia-induced neurotoxicity, but melatonin seems to play a protective role against ER stress. Synchronized Caenorhabditis elegans were exposed to isoflurane during the developmental period; melatonin treatment was used to evaluate its role in preventing the defective unfolded protein response (UPR) and ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD). The induced expression of hsp-4::GFP by isoflurane was attenuated in the isoflurane-melatonin group. Isoflurane upregulated the expression of ire-1, whereas melatonin did not induce ire-1 expression in C. elegans even after isoflurane exposure. With luzindole treatment, the effect of melatonin on the level of ire-1 was significantly attenuated. The reduced expression of sel-1, sel-11, cdc-48.1, and cdc-48.2 due to isoflurane was restored by melatonin, although not up to the level of the control group. The amount of polyubiquitinated proteins was increased in the isoflurane group; however, melatonin suppressed its accumulation, which was significantly inhibited by a proteasome inhibitor, MG132. The chemotaxis index of the isoflurane-melatonin group was improved compared with the isoflurane group. Melatonin may be a potential preventive molecule against defective UPR and ERAD caused by repeated anesthesia exposure. The ire-1 branch of the UPR and ERAD pathways can be the target of melatonin to reduce anesthesia-induced ER stress.

Abstract
An emerging concept termed the "neuro-glia-vascular unit" (NGVU) has been established in recent years to understand the complicated mechanism of multicellular interactions among vascular cells, glial cells, and neurons. It has been proverbially reported that the NGVU is significantly associated with neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Physiological aging is an inevitable progression associated with oxidative damage, bioenergetic alterations, mitochondrial dysfunction, and neuroinflammation, which is partially similar to the pathology of AD. Thus, senescence is regarded as the background for the development of neurodegenerative diseases. With the exacerbation of global aging, senescence is an increasingly serious problem in the medical field. In this review, the coupling of each component, including neurons, glial cells, and vascular cells, in the NGVU is described in detail. Then, various mechanisms of age-dependent impairment in each part of the NGVU are discussed. Moreover, the potential bioenergetic alterations between different cell types in the NGVU are highlighted, which seems to be an emerging physiopathology associated with the aged brain. Bioenergetic intervention in the NGVU may be a new direction for studies on delaying or diminishing aging in the future.

Abstract
Sevoflurane exposure can result in serious neurological side effects including neuronal
apoptosis and cognitive impairment. Although the microRNA miR-211-5p is profoundly
upregulated following sevoflurane exposure in neonatal rodent models, the impact of
miR-211-5p on neuronal apoptosis and cognitive impairment postsevoflurane exposure has not
yet been elucidated. Here, we found that sevoflurane upregulated miR-211-5p and
downregulated EGF-Containing Fibulin Extracellular Matrix Protein 2 (Efemp2, Fibulin-4)
levels in vitro and in vivo. Sevoflurane's effect on miR-211-5p expression was based on
enhancing primary miR-211 transcription. miR-211-5p targets Efemp2's mRNA 3′-untranslated
region, reducing Efemp2 expression. RNA immunoprecipitation revealed significant
enrichment of the miR-211-5p:Efemp2 mRNA dyad in the RNA-induced silencing complex.
miR-211-5p mimics downregulated Efemp2, leading to phosphorylation of Smad2 and Smad3,
upregulation of pro-apoptotic Bim, and mitochondrial release of allograft inflammatory
factor 1 and cytochrome C. In contrast, miR-211-5p hairpin inhibitor (AntimiR-211-5p)
negatively regulated this apoptotic pathway and reduced neuronal apoptosis in an
Efemp2-dependent manner. Sevoflurane-exposed mice administered AntimiR-211-5p displayed
reduced cortical apoptosis levels and near-term cognitive impairment. In conclusion,
sevoflurane-induced miR-211-5p promotes neuronal apoptosis via Efemp2 inhibition. Summary
statement: This study revealed the significance of sevoflurane-induced increases in
miR-211-5p on the promotion of neuronal apoptosis via inhibition of Efemp2 and its
downstream targets.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare differential expression protein in hippocampal tissues from mice of perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND) and normal control mice and to explore the possible mechanism of PND. METHODS Mice were randomly divided into a PND group (n = 9) and a control group (n = 9).The mice in the PND group were treated with open tibial fracture with intramedullary fixation under isoflurane anesthesia, while the mice in the control group received pure oxygen without surgery. The cognitive functions of the two groups were examined using Morris water maze experiment, Open field test and Fear conditioning test. The protein expression of the hippocampus of mice was analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were performed to explore the principal functions of dysregulated proteins. RESULTS A total of 21 proteins were differentially expressed between PND and control mice on days 1, 3, and 7 after the operation. These proteins were involved in many pathological processes, such as neuroinflammatory responses, mitochondrial oxidative stress, impaired synaptic plasticity, and neuronal cell apoptosis. Also, the dysregulated proteins were involved in MAPK, AMPK, and ErbB signaling pathways. CONCLUSION The occurrence of PND could be attributed to multiple mechanisms.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a major postoperative neurological complication in children and the elderly. However, the detailed mechanisms underlying this process remain unclear. This study aims to investigate the effect of pleiotrophin on sevoflurane-induced neuroinflammation and cognitive impairment. The novel object recognition test was performed to evaluate the cognitive and motor function of aged C57BL/6 (wild-type, WT) and pleiotrophin-knockout mice treated with sevoflurane. Small molecule inhibitors targeting receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase (RPTP) β/ζ, a pleiotrophin receptor, were used to ameliorate cognitive dysfunction. Sevoflurane treatment induced cognitive dysfunction and motor impairment in aged WT mice. Sevoflurane anesthesia induced the upregulation of certain inflammatory cytokines. Pleiotrophin knockout ameliorated the sevoflurane-induced cognitive dysfunction and motor impairment in vivo. Treatment with small molecule inhibitors targeting RPTP β/ζ inhibited sevoflurane-induced neuroinflammation. In summary, pleiotrophin was shown to potentiate sevoflurane anesthesia-induced cognitive dysfunction and learning deficits in mice.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a complication of the central nervous system (CNS) often occurred after surgery or anesthesia in the elder patients. Mind bomb-2 (MIB2) has been reported to modulate neuronal functions. Here, we aimed to study whether MIB2 exerts roles in the effects of sevoflurane anesthesia on mice hippocampal neurons and function, and how. Aging male C57BL/6 mice were subjected to sevoflurane administration, and primary hippocampal neurons were adopted to study sevoflurane effects in vitro. Western blotting and immunohistochemistry assay were used to study the protein expression of MIB2. CCK-8 assay and propidium iodide (PI) staining were performed to evaluate cell viability and cell death, respectively. Ferroptosis-related indicators malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), and iron levels were checked through indicated ELISA kits. Co-immunoprecipitation was adopted to study the binding effects of MIB2 to GPX4. We found that sevoflurane anesthesia increased MIB2 expression in mice hippocampus tissues and neurons. Knockdown of MIB2 alleviated neuron death and ferroptosis induced by sevoflurane exposure. Downregulated MIB2 enhanced GPX4 stability and reduced its ubiquitination. MIB2 was verified to bind to GPX4. The effects of MIB2 knockdown on the neuron death and ferroptosis can be reversed by further siGPX4 transfection. In vivo results also showed that MIB2 knockdown reduced hippocampal neuron death, ferroptosis, and cognitive impairments in the sevoflurane-exposed mice. Taking all together, downregulation of MIB2 could alleviate the sevoflurane-anesthesia-induced cognitive dysfunction and neuron injury through reducing ferroptosis via GPX4. Our results also provide novel directions for POCD treatment using anti-MIB2-related drugs or strategies.

Abstract
Sevoflurane, a commonly used anesthetic agent has been confirmed to induce cognitive impairment in aged rats. Normobaric hyperoxia preconditioning has been demonstrated to induce neuroprotection in rats. The present study aimed to determine whether normobaric hyperoxia preconditioning could ameliorate cognitive deficit induced by sevoflurane and the possible mechanism by which it may exert its effect. A total of 66, 20-month-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=22 each): Rats in the control (C) and sevoflurane anesthesia (S) groups received no normobaric hyperoxia preconditioning before sevoflurane exposure, rats in the normobaric hyperoxia pretreatment (HO) group received normobaric hyperoxia preconditioning before sevoflurane exposure (95% oxygen for 4 continuous h daily for 6 consecutive days). The anesthesia rats (S and HO groups), were exposed to 2.5% sevoflurane for 5 h, while the sham anesthesia rats (C group) were exposed to no sevoflurane. The neurobehavioral assessment was performed using a Morris water maze test, the expressions of the apoptosis proteins were determined using western blot analysis, and the apoptosis rate and cytosolic calcium concentration were measured by flow cytometry. Normobaric hyperoxia preconditioning improved prolonged escape latency and raised the number of platform crossings induced by sevoflurane in the Morris water maze test, increased the level of bcl-2 protein, and decreased the level of bax and active caspase-3 protein, the apoptosis rate and cytosolic calcium concentration in the hippocampus 24 h after sevoflurane exposure. The findings of the present study may imply that normobaric hyperoxia preconditioning attenuates sevoflurane-induced spatial learning and memory impairment, and this effect may be partly related to apoptosis inhibition in the hippocampus. In conclusion, normobaric hyperoxia preconditioning may be a promising strategy against sevoflurane-induced cognitive impairment by inhibiting the hippocampal neuron apoptosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Animal studies demonstrate that anesthetic exposure during neurodevelopment can lead to persistent behavioral impairment. The changes in neuronal function underlying these effects are incompletely understood. Caenorhabditis elegans is well suited for functional imaging of postanesthetic effects on neuronal activity. This study aimed to examine such effects within the neurocircuitry underlying C. elegans locomotion. METHODS C. elegans were exposed to 8% isoflurane for 3 h during the neurodevelopmentally critical L1 larval stage. Locomotion was assessed during early and late adulthood. Spontaneous activity was measured within the locomotion command interneuron circuitry using confocal and light-sheet microscopy of the calcium-sensitive fluorophore GCaMP6s. RESULTS C. elegans exposed to isoflurane demonstrated attenuation in spontaneous reversal behavior, persisting throughout the animal's lifespan (reversals/min: untreated early adulthood, 1.14 ± 0.42, vs. isoflurane-exposed early adulthood, 0.83 ± 0.55; untreated late adulthood, 1.75 ± 0.64, vs. isoflurane-exposed late adulthood, 1.14 ± 0.68; P = 0.001 and 0.006, respectively; n > 50 animal tracks/condition). Likewise, isoflurane exposure altered activity dynamics in the command interneuron AVA, which mediates crawling reversals. The rate at which AVA transitions between activity states was found to be increased. These anesthetic-induced effects were more pronounced with age (off-to-on activity state transition time (s): untreated early adulthood, 2.5 ± 1.2, vs. isoflurane-exposed early adulthood, 1.9 ± 1.3; untreated late adulthood, 4.6 ± 3.0, vs. isoflurane-exposed late adulthood, 3.0 ± 2.4; P = 0.028 and 0.008, respectively; n > 35 traces acquired from more than 15 animals/condition). Comparable effects were observed throughout the command interneuron circuitry, indicating that isoflurane exposure alters transition rates between behavioral crawling states of the system overall. These effects were modulated by loss-of-function mutations within the FoxO transcription factor daf-16 and by rapamycin-mediated mechanistic Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) inhibition. CONCLUSIONS Altered locomotive behavior and activity dynamics indicate a persistent effect on interneuron dynamics and circuit function in C. elegansafter developmental exposure to isoflurane. These effects are modulated by a loss of daf-16 or mTOR activity, consistent with a pathologic activation of stress-response pathways.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is frequently observed in elderly patients following anesthesia, but its pathophysiological mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Sevoflurane was reported to repress autophagy in aged rat neurons; however, the role of mitophagy, which is crucial for the control of mitochondrial quality and neuronal health, in sevoflurane-induced POCD in aged rats remains undetermined. Therefore, this study investigated whether mitophagy impairment is involved in sevoflurane-induced cognitive dysfunction. We found sevoflurane treatment inhibited mitochondrial respiration and mitophagic flux, changes in mitochondria morphology, impaired lysosomal acidification, and increased Tomm20 and deceased LAMP1 accumulation were observed in H4 cell and aged rat models. Rapamycin counteracted ROS induced by sevoflurane, restored mitophagy and improved mitochondrial function. Furthermore, rapamycin ameliorated the cognitive deficits observed in aged rats given sevoflurane anesthesia as determined by the Morris water maze test; this improvement was associated with an increased number of dendritic spines and pyramidal neurons. Overexpression of PARK2, but not mutant PARK2 lacking enzyme activity, in H4 cells decreased ROS and Tomm20 accumulation and reversed mitophagy dysfunction after sevoflurane treatment. These findings suggest that mitophagy dysfunction could be a mechanism underlying sevoflurane-induced POCD and that activating mitophagy may provide a new strategy to rescue cognitive deficits.

Abstract
PURPOSE Sevoflurane is a widely used anesthetics, however, it has been reported that sevoflurane has neurotoxic effects. Studies have shown that miR-221-3p can ameliorate neuron damage. This study was to investigate whether miR-221-3p could reduce the neurotoxic effect of sevoflurane on nerve cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS The rat hippocampal neuron cells were treated with sevoflurane or cultured normally. And we constructed neuron cells that overexpressed or low expression of miR-221-3p in the presence or absence of sevoflurane. The cells were transfected with CDKN1B or siCDKN1B, and co-transfected with miR-221-3p mimic and CDKN1B or miR-221-3p inhibitor and siCDKN1B. Cell viability and apoptosis were detected by CCK-8 and flow cytometer. Target gene of miR-221-3p were predicted by TargetScan and luciferase reporter assay. The expressions of related genes were detected by western blotting and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS Sevoflurane decreased miR-221-3p level and increased CDKN1B level, inhibited cell viability and promoted apoptosis. Overexpress of miR-221-3p decreased CDKN1B level, up-regulated cell viability and inhibited apoptosis, and reversed the effects of sevoflurane on cell viability and apoptosis, while the effects low expression of miR-221-3p was contrary. CDKN1B was the target gene of miR-221-3p, which inhibited cell viability and promoted apoptosis, and reversed the effects of miR-221-3p mimic, whereas siCDKN1B did the opposite effects. CONCLUSIONS Sevoflurane can cause nerve cell injury, and miR-221-3p may promote cell activity and inhibit apoptosis by inhibiting CDKN1B expression, thereby ameliorating cell injury induced by sevoflurane.

Sevoflurane-induced cognitive decline in aged mice: Involvement of toll-like receptors 4. Brain Res Bull 2020; 165:23-29.

Abstract
Toll-like receptors 4 (TLR4) contributes to the pathogenesis of some neurodegenerative diseases. However, little is known about whether TLR4 is associated with sevoflurane-induced cognitive decline. This investigation aims to address the effect of global TLR4 gene knockout on cognitive decline following sevoflurane exposure to mice. Wild-type and TLR4-/- mice were exposed to 3% sevoflurane. Novel object recognition test and Y-maze test were used to analyze cognitive function. Tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in plasma and hippocampus were measured by ELISA. Peripheral administration of recombinant TNF-α to TLR4-/- mice was used to observed the role of TNF-α in cognitive function following sevoflurane. Our results showed that, in contrast to wild-type mice, TLR4 deficiency protected against the cognitive function impairment following sevoflurane exposure, and abrogated IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α response to sevoflurane in the system and the hippocampus. Subcutaneous administration of recombinant TNF-α elevated these cytokine levels in the hippocampus, and resulted in cognitive decline in TLR4-/- mice exposed to sevoflurane. Taken together, our results identify the crucial role of TLR4 in sevoflurane-induced cognitive decline, and showed that TLR4 mediated pro-inflammatory cytokine response to sevoflurane, and consequent cognitive decline in aged mice exposed to sevoflurane, and imply a novel target for improvement and therapy of sevoflurane-associated cognitive decline.

Abstract
Sevoflurane is one of the most widely used anesthetics with recent concerns rising about its pediatric application. The synaptic toxicity and mechanisms underlying its long‐term cognition impairment remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the expression and roles of homeodomain interacting protein kinase 2 (HIPK2), a stress activating kinase involved in neuronal survival and synaptic plasticity, and its downstream c‐Jun N‐terminal kinase (JNK)/c‐Jun signaling in the long‐term toxicity of neonatal Sevoflurane exposure. Our data showed that neonatal Sevoflurane exposure results in impairment of memory, enhancement of anxiety, less number of excitatory synapses and lower levels of synaptic proteins in the hippocampus of adult rats without significant changes of hippocampal neuron numbers. Up‐regulation of HIPK2 and JNK/c‐Jun was observed in hippocampal granular neurons shortly after Sevoflurane exposure and persisted to adult. 5‐((6‐Oxo‐5‐(6‐(piperazin‐1‐yl)pyridin‐3‐yl)‐1,6‐dihydropyridin‐3‐yl)methylene)thiazolidine‐2,4‐dione trifluoroacetate, antagonist of HIPK2, could significantly rescue the cognition impairment, decrease in long‐term potentiation, reduction in spine density and activation of JNK/c‐Jun induced by Sevoflurane. JNK antagonist SP600125 partially restored synapse development and cognitive function without affecting the expression of HIPK2. These data, in together, revealed a novel role of HIPK2‐JNK/c‐Jun signaling in the long‐term synaptic toxicity and cognition impairment of neonatal Sevoflurane exposure, indicating HIPK2‐JNK/c‐Jun cascade as a potential target for reducing the synaptic toxicity of Sevoflurane. ![]()

Abstract
Objective: The possible effect of NMDAR (N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor)-NMNAT1/2 (nicotinamide/nicotinic acid mono-nucleotide adenylyltransferase) signaling pathway on the neuronal cell damage and cognitive impairment of aged rats anesthetized by sevoflurane was explored.Methods: Adult male Wistar rats were selected and divided into Control, Sevo (Sevoflurane), Sevo+DCS (NMDAR agonist D-cycloserine) 30 mg/kg, Sevo+DCS 100 mg/kg, and Sevo+DCS 200 mg/kg groups. Morris water maze and fear conditioning text were used to observe cognitive function changes of rats. The inflammatory cytokines were determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) assay, neuronal apoptosis by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT)-mediated dUTP nick-end labelling (TUNEL) staining and MDAR-NMNAT1/2 pathway-related proteins by Western blotting.Results: The longer escape latency, decreased platform crossing times and reduced staying time spent in platform quadrant were found in rats from Sevo group, with decreased percentage of freezing time in contextual test and tone cued test; and meanwhile, these rats had increased inflammatory cytokines (interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), IL-6, and IL-8) and neuronal apoptosis, but declined expressions of MDAR-NMNAT1/2 pathway-related proteins. However, the above changes were exhibited an opposite tendency in those Sevo rats treated with different concentrations of DCS (including 30, 100, and 200 mg/kg, respectively). Particularly, the improving effect of low-dose DCS on each aspect in aged rats was better than high-dose ones.Conclusion: Activation of NMDAR-NMNAT1/2 signaling pathway could not only reduce neuronal apoptosis, but also alleviate sevoflurane-induced neuronal inflammation and cognitive impairment in aged rats.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cancer-induced bone pain (CIBP) is the pain caused by bone metastasis from malignant tumors, and the largest source of pain for cancer patients. miR-300 is an important miRNA in cancer. It has been shown that miR-300 regulates tumorigenesis of various tumors. PURPOSE This study aims to investigate the role of miR-300 in CIBP and its underlying molecular mechanisms in vitro and in vivo. METHODS We constructed CIBP model in rats and investigated the mechanism through which miR-300 affects CIBP. We first examined expression level of miR-300 in CIBP rats and then tested the effect of its overexpression. Next, we identified the target of miR-300 using TargetScan analysis and double luciferase assay. Finally, we studied genetic interactions between miR-300 and its target and their roles in CIBP. RESULTS We found that miR-300 was downregulated in CIBP rats. Overexpression of miR-300 significantly attenuated cancer-induced neuropathic pain (p < 0.01). Furthermore, TargetScan analysis and double luciferase assay show High Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1) is a target of miR-300. Notably, HMGB1 is overexpressed in CIBP rats, while up-regulation of miR-300 significantly suppresses expression of HMGB1 (p < 0.01). Moreover, knockdown of HMGB1 by siRNA significantly relieves cancer-induced neuropathic pain in rats (p < 0.01). On the other hand, HMGB1 overexpression partially blocked the effect of miR-300 on cancer-induced nerve pain. CONCLUSION miR-300 relieves cancer-induced neuropathic pain by inhibiting HMGB1 expression. These results may be beneficial for the treatment of CIBP in clinical practice.

J Cell Mol Med 2019; 24:1345-1359. [PMID: 31802591 PMCID: PMC6991648 DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.14807] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2019] [Revised: 09/06/2019] [Accepted: 09/29/2019] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the protective effects and underlying mechanisms of cistanche on sevoflurane‐induced aged cognitive dysfunction rat model. Aged (24 months) male SD rats were randomly assigned to four groups: control group, sevoflurane group, control + cistanche and sevoflurane + cistanche group. Subsequently, inflammatory cytokine levels were measured by ELISA, and the cognitive dysfunction of rats was evaluated by water maze test, open‐field test and the fear conditioning test. Three days following anaesthesia, the rats were killed and hippocampus was harvested for the analysis of relative biomolecules. The oxidative stress level was indicated as nitrite and MDA concentration, along with the SOD and CAT activity. Finally, PPAR‐γ antagonist was used to explore the mechanism of cistanche in vivo. The results showed that after inhaling the sevoflurane, 24‐ but not 3‐month‐old male SD rats developed obvious cognitive impairments in the behaviour test 3 days after anaesthesia. Intraperitoneal injection of cistanche at the dose of 50 mg/kg for 3 consecutive days before anaesthesia alleviated the sevoflurane‐induced elevation of neuroinflammation levels and significantly attenuated the hippocampus‐dependent memory impairments in 24‐month‐old rats. Cistanche also reduced the oxidative stress by decreasing nitrite and MDA while increasing the SOD and CAT activity. Moreover, such treatment also inhibited the activation of microglia. In addition, we demonstrated that PPAR‐γ inhibition conversely alleviated cistanche‐induced protective effect. Taken together, we demonstrated that cistanche can exert antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, anti‐apoptosis and anti‐activation of microglia effects on the development of sevoflurane‐induced cognitive dysfunction by activating PPAR‐γ signalling.

Abstract
Aim: Sevoflurane could induce apoptosis of rat hippocampal neurons, while theaflavins (TFs) have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. This study aims to explore whether TFs could alleviate sevoflurane-induced neuronal cell injury.Materials and methods: Cells were treated by concentration gradient of sevoflurane and TFs. Cell viability, level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and apoptosis rate were determined by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and flow cytometry, respectively. Quantitative PCR (qPCR) and western blot were performed to determine mRNA and protein expressions.Results: TFs promoted viability of cells under the treatment of sevoflurane, while it suppressed apoptosis and down-regulated ROS level in a concentration-dependent manner. TFs could also down-regulate expression levels of caspase-3 and caspase-9 and cytosol and intranuclear nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) in rat hippocampal nerve cells, while it up-regulated those of heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1), NADPH quinine oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1), glutamate cysteine ligase (GCL) and peroxiredoxin 1 (Prx1).Conclusions: Our study suggests that TFs exert protective effects on sevoflurane-induced neurocytotoxicity and therefore could be used as a potential drug for treatment of neuronal injury.

Sevoflurane induces cognitive impairment in young mice via autophagy. PLoS One 2019; 14:e0216372.

Abstract
Background Anesthesia may induce neurotoxicity and neurocognitive impairment in young mice. However, the underlying mechanism remains largely to be determined. Meanwhile, autophagy is involved in brain development and contributes to neurodegenerative diseases. We, therefore, set out to determine the effects of sevoflurane on autophagy in the hippocampus of young mice and on cognitive function in the mice. Methods Six day-old mice received 3% sevoflurane, for two hours daily, on postnatal days (P) 6, 7 and 8. We then decapitated the mice and harvested the hippocampus of the young mice at P8. The level of LC3, the ratio of LC3-II to LC3-I, and SQSTM1/p62 level associated with the autophagy in the hippocampus of the mice were assessed by using Western blotting. We used different groups of mice for behavioral testing via the Morris Water Maze from P31 to P37. Results The anesthetic sevoflurane increased the level of LC3-II and ratio of LC3-II/LC3-I, decreased the p62 level in the hippocampus of the young mice, and induced cognitive impairment in the mice. 3-Methyladenine, the inhibitor of autophagy, attenuated the activation of autophagy and ameliorated the cognitive impairment induced by sevoflurane in the young mice. Conclusion These data showed that sevoflurane anesthesia might induce cognitive impairment in the young mice via activation of autophagy in the hippocampus of the young mice. These findings from the proof of concept studies have established a system and suggest the role of autophagy in anesthesia neurotoxicity and cognitive impairment in the young mice, pending further investigation.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and autophagy are two highly complex and interrelated components of cell physiopathology, but our understanding of their integration and their contribution to cell homeostasis and disease is still limited. Sestrins (SESNs) belong to a family of highly conserved stress-inducible proteins that orchestrate antioxidant and autophagy-regulating functions protecting cells from various noxious stimuli, including DNA damage, oxidative stress, hypoxia, and metabolic stress. They are also relevant modulators of metabolism as positive regulators of the key energy sensor AMP-dependent protein kinase (AMPK) and inhibitors of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). Since perturbations in these pathways are central to multiple disorders, SESNs might constitute potential novel therapeutic targets of broad interest. In this review, we discuss the current understanding of regulatory and effector networks of SESNs, highlighting their significance as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for different diseases, such as aging-related diseases, metabolic disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer.

Abstract
Background: This study investigated the effects of propofol and isoflurane on endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in an animal model under general anaesthesia. Methods: Rats were randomly divided into Propofol and Isoflurane groups. Anaesthesia was maintained with propofol for Propofol group or isoflurane for Isoflurane group during 3 h. ER stress from lymphocytes in blood and tissues was evaluated between two groups after euthanasia. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) from lymphocytes in blood and tissues, and cytokines in blood were also checked. An immunohistochemical assay for ER stress marker from tissues was performed. Results: After anaesthesia, the levels of CCAAT-enhancer-binding protein homologous proteins (CHOP) in blood and liver were significantly higher in Isoflurane group, compared to Propofol group [blood, 31,499 ± 4,934 (30,733, 26,441-38,807) mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) in Isoflurane group vs. 20,595 ± 1,838 (20,780, 18,866-22,232) MFI in Propofol group, p = 0.002; liver, 28,342 ± 5,535 (29,421, 23,388-32,756) MFI in Isoflurane group vs. 20,004 ± 2,155 (19,244, 18,197-22,191) MFI in Propofol group, p = 0.020]. ROS in blood was significantly higher in Isoflurane group, compared to Propofol group. However, cytokines in blood and immunohistochemical assays in tissues were similar between groups. Conclusion: Significant higher of ER stress from blood and liver were observed in rats under anaesthesia with isoflurane, compared to those that received propofol. ROS from blood also showed significant higher under anaesthesia with isoflurane. However, these findings were not associated with any changes in cytokines in blood or immunohistochemical assay in tissues.

Abstract
Background: Most neurodegenerative diseases are sporadic and develop with age. Degenerative neural tissues often contain intra- and extracellular protein aggregates, suggesting that the proteostasis network that combats protein misfolding could be dysfunctional in the setting of neurodegenerative disease. Binding immunoglobulin protein (BiP) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperone that is crucial for protein folding and modulating the adaptive response in early secretory pathways. The interaction between BiP and unfolded proteins is mediated by the substrate-binding domain and nucleotide-binding domain with ATPase activity. The interaction facilitates protein folding and maturation. BiP has a recovery motif at the carboxyl terminus. The aim of this study is to examine cognitive function in model mice with an impaired proteostasis network by expressing a mutant form of BiP lacking the recovery motif. We also investigated if impairments of cognitive function were exacerbated by exposure to environmental insults, such as inhaled anesthetics. Methods: We examined cognitive function by performing radial maze testing with mutant BiP mice and assessed the additional impact of general anesthesia in the context of proteostasis dysfunction. Testing over 8 days was performed 10 weeks, 6 months, and 1 year after birth. Results: Age-related cognitive decline occurred in both forms of mice. The mutant BiP and anesthetic exposure promoted cognitive dysfunction prior to the senile period. After senescence, when mice were tested at 6 months of age and at 1 year old, there were no significant differences between the two genotypes in terms of the radial maze testing; furthermore, there was no significant difference when tested with and without anesthetic exposure. Conclusion: Our data suggest that aging was the predominant factor underlying the impairment of cognitive function in this study. Impairment of the proteostasis network may promote age-related neurodegeneration, and this is exacerbated by external insults.

Abstract
Objective This study was aimed at investigating whether sevoflurane inhalation induced cognitive impairment in rats with a possible mechanism involved in the event. Methods Thirty-two rats were randomly divided into four groups of normal saline (NS) + O2, NS + sevoflurane (sevo), amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) + O2, and Aβ + sevo. The rats in the four groups received bilateral intrahippocampus injections of NS or Aβ. The treated hippocampus was harvested after inhaling 30% O2 or 2.5% sevoflurane. Evaluation of cognitive function was performed by Morris water maze (MWZ) and an Aβ1–42 level was determined by ELISA. Protein and mRNA expressions were executed by immunohistochemical (IHC) staining, Western blotting, and qRT-PCR. Results Compared with the NS-treated group, sevoflurane only caused cognitive impairment and increased the level of Aβ1–42 of the brain in the Aβ-treated group. Sevoflurane inhalation but not O2 significantly increased glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and ionized calcium-binding adaptor molecule (IBA)1 expression in Aβ-treated hippocampus of rats. Expression levels for Bcl-xL, caspase-9, receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) were significantly different in quantification of band intensity between the rats that inhaled O2 and sevoflurane in Aβ-treated groups (all P < 0.05). Interleukin- (IL-) 1β, nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA expression increased after the rats inhaled sevoflurane in the Aβ-treated group (both P < 0.01). There were no significant differences in the change of GFAP, IBA1, Bcl-xL, caspase-9, RAGE, BDNF, IL-1β, NF-κB, and iNOS in the NS + O2 and NS + sevo group (all P > 0.05). Conclusion Sevoflurane exacerbates cognitive impairment induced by Aβ1–40 in rats through initiating neurotoxicity, neuroinflammation, and neuronal apoptosis in rat hippocampus.

Abstract
Sevoflurane has been commonly utilized in nonobstetric surgeries in pregnant women, and its impacts on fetal brain are still not completely known. Ectopic NR4A2 expression has been reported to be related with familial Parkinson disease, and through dual luciferase we found that NR4A2 is a target gene of microRNA-183 (miR-183). We proposed a hypothesis that miR-183 may participate in the process by targeting NR4A2 in neurons after sevoflurane anesthesia. To verify the effect of sevoflurane on hippocampal neural stem cells (NSCs) proliferation and differentiation, we conducted EdU assay and immunofluorescence staining. Next, for better understanding of the impact of miR-183, we altered the miR-183 expression using mimic and inhibitor. Meanwhile, the targeting relationship between miR-183 and NR4A2 was validated by a bioinformatics website and dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Finally, expressions of miR-184, NR4A2, SRY (sex-determining region Y)-box 2 (Sox2), and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) were determined and evaluated by reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot analysis. First, sevoflurane was determined a crucial factor in biological behaviors of hippocampal NSCs. Moreover, upregulated miR-183 expression by mimic inhibited the proliferation and differentiation of NSCs. Sevoflurane negatively regulated NR4A2 and Sox2 expressions but positively regulated miR-183 and BDNF expressions. Our findings revealed the underlying novel mechanism by which sevoflurane inhibits hippocampal NSC proliferation and differentiation through interaction with miR-183 and NR4A2. The study provides reliable reference for safe application of sevoflurane anesthesia in neonates.

Abstract
Sevoflurane, an inhaled ether general anesthetic agent, exerts a variety of neurotoxic effects, including oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and neuronal apoptosis. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be elucidated. DJ-1 is a protein that exerts neuroprotective effects against different kinds of stress through multiple pathways. This study aimed to investigate the neuroprotective effects of DJ-1 against sevoflurane-induced neurotoxicity. Here, we found that sevoflurane treatment significantly increased DJ-1 expression in human neuroblastoma M17 cells in a dose-dependent manner at both the mRNA and protein levels. Interestingly, we found that overexpression of wild-type (WT) DJ-1 prevented sevoflurane-induced generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO), deletion of reduced GSH, reduction of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and mitochondrial membrane potential. Interestingly, we found that WT DJ-1 could inhibit sevoflurane-induced apoptosis by modulating the mitochondrial pathway. However, its "loss of function" mutation DJ-1(L166P) exacerbated sevoflurane-induced neurotoxicity in M17 cells. Our findings suggest that WT DJ-1 protects neuronal cells against sevoflurane-induced neurotoxicity.

Abstract
The present study was designed to investigate the effects of sevoflurane inhalation anesthesia on the cognitive function of rats and to investigate the molecular mechanisms mediating this effect. A total of 100 healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups: i) Control (air inhalation), ii) low-dose (1.5% sevoflurane inhalation for 2 h), iii) high-dose (3% sevoflurane inhalation for 2 h), and iv) nimodipine group (3% sevoflurane inhalation for 2 h + nimodipine). Sevoflurane inhalation anesthesia resulted in cognitive dysfunction in a dose-dependent manner. Sevoflurane also upregulated the expression of tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL) −6, −8, and Caspase-3 in the hippocampus. The intervention with nimodipine partially recovered the cognitive function and the abnormal expression of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8, and Caspase-3 induced by sevoflurane. The results showed that the cognitive dysfunction caused by sevoflurane inhalation in rats may be related to the activation of inflammatory and apoptotic pathways. The neuroprotective effect of nimodipine suggests that abnormal calcium transport is partially responsible for the sevoflurane toxicity.

Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to explore the potential genes and transcription factors involved in postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) via bioinformatics analysis. Material/Methods GSE95070 miRNA expression profiles were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus database, which included five hippocampal tissues from POCD mice and controls. Moreover, the differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) between the two groups were identified. In addition, the target genes of DEMs were predicted using Targetscan 7.1, followed by protein-protein interaction (PPI) network construction, functional enrichment analysis, pathway analysis, and prediction of transcription factors (TFs) targeting the potential targets. Results A total of eight DEMs were obtained, and 823 target genes were predicted, including 170 POCD-associated genes. Furthermore, potential key genes in the network were remarkably enriched in focal adhesion, protein digestion and absorption, ECM-receptor interaction, and Wnt and MAPK signaling pathways. Conclusions Most potential target genes were involved in the regulation of TFs, including LEF1, SP1, and AP4, which may exert strong impact on the development of POCD.

Abstract
Anesthesia-induced postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) has been confirmed in elderly patients, while studies have shown that Nampt protein is critical for learning and memory. To better understand the mechanism of anesthesia-induced POCD, we studied the behavioral and biochemical changes in aged rats that were exposed to sevoflurane (Sev) and nitrous oxide (N2O) for 4 hours. Rats were randomly divided into control group and anesthesia group. The anesthesia group rats were given 1.3% Sev and 50% N2O for 4 hours, and controls with 50% O2 for same time. Morris Water Maze test was used to test the rat's ability to learn and remember 24 hours exposure. The result shown that Sev-N2O anesthesia induced a significant deficit in short-term spatial learning acquisition and memory retention, but it had no significant deficit in long-term. After 48 hours Sev-N2O anesthesia, the neuronal apoptosis and the expression of Bax, PARP-1 in hippocampus of rats increased significantly, and the expression of Nampt, RelB decreased significantly. However, Nampt activators could reduce the apoptosis of hippocampal primary cells in vitro after 4 hours exposed with Sev-N2O. Thus, we believed that down-regulation of Nampt/RelB signaling was closely related to neuronal apoptosis in the hippocampus contributed to the neurotoxicity and cognitive dysfunction induced by general anesthesia with sevoflurane-nitrous oxide.

Abstract
AbstractBrain ageing is a complex process which in its pathologic form is associated with learning and memory dysfunction or cognitive impairment. During ageing, changes in cholinergic innervations and reduced acetylcholinergic tonus may trigger a series of molecular pathways participating in oxidative stress, excitotoxicity, amyloid-β toxicity, apoptosis, neuroinflammation, and perturb neurotrophic factors in the brain. Nicotine is an exogenous agonist of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) and acts as a pharmacological chaperone in the regulation of nAChR expression, potentially intervening in age-related changes in diverse molecular pathways leading to pathology. Although nicotine has therapeutic potential, paradoxical effects have been reported, possibly due to its inverted U-shape dose-response effects or pharmacokinetic factors. Additionally, nicotine administration should result in optimum therapeutic effects without imparting abuse potential or toxicity. Overall, this review aims to compile the previous and most recent data on nicotine and its effects on cognition-related mechanisms and age-related cognitive impairment.

Abstract
Chronic arsenic exposure has been associated to cognitive deficits. However, mechanisms remain unknown. The present study investigated the neurotoxic effects of sodium arsenite in drinking water over different dosages and time periods. Based on results from the Morris water maze (MWM) and morphological analysis, an exposure to sodium arsenite could induce neuronal damage in the hippocampus, reduce learning ability, and accelerate memory impairment. Sodium arsenite significantly increased homocysteine levels in serum and brain. Moreover, sodium arsenite triggered unfolded protein response (UPR), leading to the phosphorylation of RNA-regulated protein kinase-like ER kinase (PERK) and eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit α (eIF2α), and the induction of activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4). Arsenite exposure also stimulated the expression of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress markers, glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) and the cleavage of caspase-12. Furthermore, exposure to arsenite enhanced apoptosis as demonstrated by expression of caspase-3 and TUNEL assay in the hippocampus. The results suggest that exposure to arsenite can significantly decrease learning ability and accelerate memory impairment. Potential mechanisms are related to enhancement of homocysteine and ER stress-induced apoptosis in the hippocampus.

Abstract
Sevoflurane (Sev) is a widely used anaesthetic agent in clinical patients. Growing evidences indicated that Sev resulted in cognitive impairment via inducing endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress mediated neurons apoptosis in vivo. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms have not yet fully understood. In this study, we found that Sev exposure suppresses cell viability, and induces apoptosis by activating caspase-3 apoptotic signaling pathway. Our results further verified that Sevtriggers ER stress via upregulating its markers glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP), caspase-12 and cleaved-PARP proteins. Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been proven to regulate ER stress in a variety of cells, especially neuronal cells. Therefore, we performed the microarray analysis to identified miRNA levels in HT22 cells after treatment with Sev. Our results showed that Sev induces miRNAs aberrant expression and miR-15b-5p was one of the miRNAs being most upregulated in HT22 cells. Furthermore, the Sev-induced apoptosis and ER stress were rescued by knockdown of miR-15b-5p. Additionally, we demonstrated that miR-15b-5p suppresses Rab1A, a regulator in inducing ER stress, by directly targeting its 3'-UTR in HT22 cells. These results suggested that Sev exposure induces ER stress mediated apoptosis in HT22 cells via regulating miR-15b-5p/Rab1A signaling pathway. These data may provide an important therapeutic strategy for fighting against Sev through ER stress mediated neuronal apoptosis in clinical patients.

Abstract
Sevoflurane, a typical inhaled anesthetic, is widely used in patients of all ages during surgery. The negative effects, such as inducing cell death and damaging spatial memory, of sevoflurane on neurodevelopment have raised increasing concerns in recent years. However, the molecular mechanism remains unclear. This study focused on the crucial role of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in sevoflurane-induced hippocampal injury. Three-week-old rats were exposed to sevoflurane or control air for 5 h with or without ER stress inhibitor (4-phenylbutyric acid, 4-PBA) injection. The hippocampus was harvested to measure the ER stress sensors by western immunoblotting. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end-labeling staining was used to detect cell apoptosis and electrophysiology was used to measure the intrinsic excitability of neurons in hippocampus. We measured learning and memory ability by Morris water maze tests 5 weeks after sevoflurane exposure. Interestingly, persistent sevoflurane exposure significantly increased the levels of ER stress sensors in hippocampus. But it resulted in different effects in CA1 and dentate gyrus. Greatly increased caspase-12-mediated apoptotic cells, which were proved to be the neural stem cells, were detected in the dentate gyrus. Meanwhile, CA1 pyramidal neurons exhibited significantly reduced intrinsic excitability. Furthermore, the administration of ER stress inhibitor attenuated the above mentioned detrimental effects evidently and prevented the following relevant learning and memory deficits. In conclusion, sevoflurane-mediated ER stress performs distinct effects on the different subfields of the immature hippocampus and inhibiting ER stress during sevoflurane anesthesia will be a potential method to prevent the following learning and memory deficits in adulthood.

Abstract
Current understanding on the mechanisms of brain injury and neurodegeneration highlights an appreciation of multicellular interactions within the neurovascular unit (NVU), which include the evolution of blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage, neuronal cell death or degeneration, glial reaction, and immune cell infiltration. Aging is an important factor that influences the integrity of the NVU. The age-related physiological or pathological changes in the cellular components of the NVU have been shown to increase the vulnerability of the NVU to ischemia/reperfusion injury or neurodegeneration, and to result in deteriorated brain damage. This review describes the impacts of aging on each NVU component and discusses the mechanisms by which aging increases NVU sensitivity to stroke and neurodegenerative diseases. Prophylactic or therapeutic perspectives that may delay or diminish aging and thus prevent the incidence of these neurological disorders will also be reviewed.
