Abstract
Many factors affect the prognosis of patients undergoing tumor surgery, and anesthesia is one of the potential influencing factors. In general anesthesia, inhalation anesthesia is widely used in the clinic because of its strong curative effect and high controllability. However, the effect of inhalation anesthetics on the tumor is still controversial. More and more research has proved that inhalation anesthetics can intervene in local recurrence and distant metastasis of tumor by acting on tumor biological behavior, immune response, and gene regulation. In this paper, we reviewed the research progress of diverse inhalation anesthetics promoting or inhibiting cancer in the critical events of tumor recurrence and metastasis, and compared the effects of inhalation anesthetics on patients' prognosis in clinical studies, to provide theoretical reference for anesthesia management of patients undergoing tumor surgery.

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

Abstract
Since understanding molecular mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 infection is extremely important for developing effective therapies against COVID-19, we focused on the internalization mechanism of SARS-CoV-2 via ACE2. Although cigarette smoke is generally believed to be harmful to the pathogenesis of COVID-19, cigarette smoke extract (CSE) treatments were surprisingly found to suppress the expression of ACE2 in HepG2 cells. We thus tried to clarify the mechanism of CSE effects on expression of ACE2 in mammalian cells. Because RNA-seq analysis suggested that suppressive effects on ACE2 might be inversely correlated with induction of the genes regulated by aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR), the AHR agonists 6-formylindolo(3,2-b)carbazole (FICZ) and omeprazole (OMP) were tested to assess whether those treatments affected ACE2 expression. Both FICZ and OMP clearly suppressed ACE2 expression in a dose-dependent manner along with inducing CYP1A1. Knock-down experiments indicated a reduction of ACE2 by FICZ treatment in an AHR-dependent manner. Finally, treatments of AHR agonists inhibited SARS-CoV-2 infection into Vero E6 cells as determined with immunoblotting analyses detecting SARS-CoV-2 specific nucleocapsid protein. We here demonstrate that treatment with AHR agonists, including FICZ, and OMP, decreases expression of ACE2 via AHR activation, resulting in suppression of SARS-CoV-2 infection in mammalian cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In clear cell renal cell carcinoma, 80% of cases have biallelic inactivation of the VHL gene, leading to constitutive activation of both HIF1α and HIF2α. As HIF2α is the driver of the disease promoting tumour growth and metastasis, drugs targeting HIF2α have been developed. However, resistance is common, therefore new therapies are needed. METHODS We assessed the effect of the HIF2α antagonist PT2385 in several steps of tumour development and performed RNAseq to identify genes differentially expressed upon treatment. A drug screening was used to identify drugs with antiproliferative effects on VHL-mutated HIF2α-expressing cells and could increase effectiveness of PT2385. RESULTS PT2385 did not reduce cell proliferation or clonogenicity but, in contrast to the genetic silencing of HIF2α, it reduced in vitro cell invasion. Many HIF-inducible genes were down-regulated upon PT2385 treatment, whereas some genes involved in cell migration or extracellular matrix were up-regulated. HIF2α was associated with resistance to statins, addition to PT2385 did not increase the sensitivity. CONCLUSIONS this study shows key differences between inhibiting a target versus knockdown, which are potentially targetable.

CircRNA VIM silence synergizes with sevoflurane to inhibit immune escape and multiple oncogenic activities of esophageal cancer by simultaneously regulating miR-124/PD-L1 axis. Cell Biol Toxicol 2021; 38:825-845. [PMID: 34018092 DOI: 10.1007/s10565-021-09613-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2020] [Accepted: 04/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Circular RNA of vimentin (circ-VIM) is a predictor for poor prognosis of acute myeloid leukemia, but we had little information on its function in esophageal cancer (EC). Here we examined the effects of circ-VIM together with sevoflurane on immune escape and multiple oncogenic activities of EC. METHODS Bioinformatic tools, luciferase assay, and RNA immunoprecipitation were used to examine regulations between circ-VIM, miR-124-3p (miR-124), and PD-L1. CCK-8, wound healing, and Transwell assays were used to measure cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, respectively. The impacts of EC cells on cytotoxicity, proliferation, and apoptosis of CD8+ T cells were examined using LDH assay, CFSE staining, and Annexin V/PI staining, respectively. The in vivo tumorigenesis and lung metastases were assessed using xenograft model and tail vein injection of EC cells. RESULTS Significant upregulation of circ-VIM and PD-L1 and downregulation of miR-124 were detected in EC tissues or cells. Circ-VIM sponged miR-124 and released its suppression on the downstream target PD-L1. Sevoflurane, independent of circ-VIM, also upregulated miR-124 to lower PD-L1 expression. By modulating miR-124/PD-L1 axis, silencing circ-VIM and applying sevoflurane both inhibited immune escape and multiple oncogenic activities of EC in vitro, and suppressed xenograft growth and lung metastases in vivo. The inactivation of Ras/ERK signaling pathway was involved in suppression of malignant phenotypes by silencing circ-VIM and sevoflurane treatment. CONCLUSIONS Silencing circ-VIM and applying sevoflurane, by separately regulating miR-124/PD-L1 axis, presented synergistic effects in inhibiting immune escape and multiple malignant phenotypes of EC cells.

Abstract
A critical goal of patient management for anesthesiologists and intensivists is to maintain oxygen homeostasis in patients admitted to operation theaters and intensive care units. For this purpose, it is imperative to understand the strategies of the body against oxygen imbalance—especially oxygen deficiency (hypoxia). Adaptation to hypoxia and maintenance of oxygen homeostasis involve a wide range of responses that occur at different organizational levels in the body. These responses are greatly influenced by perioperative patient management including factors such as perioperative drugs. Herein, the influence of perioperative patient management on the body's response to oxygen imbalance was reviewed with a special emphasis on hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs), transcription factors whose activity are regulated by the perturbation of oxygen metabolism. The 2019 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to three researchers who made outstanding achievements in this field. While previous studies have reported the effect of perioperatively used drugs on hypoxia-induced gene expression mediated by HIFs, this review focused on effects of subacute or chronic hypoxia changes in gene expression that are mediated by the transcriptional regulator HIFs. The clinical implications and perspectives of these findings also will be discussed. Understanding the basic biology of the transcription factor HIF can be informative for us since anesthesiologists manage patients during the perioperative period facing the imbalances the oxygen metabolism in organ and tissue. The clinical implications of hypoxia-dependent signaling in critical illness, including Coronavirus disease (COVID-19), in which disturbances in oxygen metabolism play a major role in its pathogenesis will also be discussed.

Abstract
Cigarette smoking (CS) is a major contributing factor in the development of a large number of fatal and debilitating disorders, including degenerative diseases and cancers. Smoking and passive smoking also affect the establishment and maintenance of pregnancy. However, to the best of our knowledge, the effects of smoking on the human endometrium remain poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the regulatory mechanism underlying CS-induced hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α activation using primary human endometrial stromal cells and an immortalized cell line (KC02-44D). We found that the CS extract (CSE) increased reactive oxygen species levels and stimulated HIF-1α protein stabilization in endometrial stromal cells, and that CS-induced HIF-1α-dependent gene expression under non-hypoxic conditions in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. Additionally, we revealed the upregulated expression of a hypoxia-induced gene set following the CSE treatment, even under normoxic conditions. These results indicated that HIF-1α might play an important role in CS-exposure-induced cellular stress, inflammation, and endometrial remodeling.

Abstract
Surgery is a critical period in the survival of patients with cancer. While resective surgery of primary tumors has shown to prolong the life of these patients, it can also promote mechanisms associated with metastatic progression. During surgery, patients require general and sometimes local anesthetics that also modulate mechanisms that can favor or reduce metastasis. In this narrative review, we summarized the evidence about the impact of local, regional and general anesthesia on metastatic mechanisms and the survival of patients. The available evidence suggests that cancer recurrence is not significantly impacted by neither regional anesthesia nor volatile or total intravenous anesthesia.

Pharmacological polysulfide suppresses glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in an ATP-sensitive potassium channel-dependent manner. Sci Rep 2019; 9:19377.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenous gaseous transmitter synthesized in various cell types. It is well established that H2S functions in many physiological processes, including the relaxation of vascular smooth muscle, mediation of neurotransmission, regulation of inflammation, and modulation of insulin signaling. In recent years, it has been revealed that polysulfides, substances with a varying number of sulfur atoms (H2Sn), are generated endogenously from H2S in the presence of oxygen. A series of studies describes that sulfane sulfur has the unique ability to bind reversibly to other sulfur atoms to form hydropersulfides and polysulfides, and that polysulfides activate ion channels and promote calcium influx. Furthermore, polysulfides regulate tumor suppressor activity, promote the activation of transcription factors targeting antioxidant genes and regulate blood pressure by vascular smooth muscle relaxation. Insulin secretion from pancreatic β cells plays a critical role in response to increased blood glucose concentration. H2S has emerged as an important regulator of glycemic control and exhibits characteristic regulation of glucose homeostasis. However, the effects of polysulfides on glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) are largely unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that pharmacological polysulfide salts including Na2S2, Na2S3, and Na2S4 considerably inhibit GSIS in mouse and rat pancreatic β-cell-derived MIN6 and INS-1 cell lines, and that the effect is dependent on the activation of ATP-sensitive potassium channels. In addition, we demonstrated that a mixture of Na2S and diethylamine NONOate inhibits GSIS in a similar way to the pharmacological administration of polysulfide salts.
