Abstract
Anesthesia serves as a pivotal tool in modern medicine, creating a transient state of sensory deprivation to ensure a pain-free surgical or medical intervention. While proficient in alleviating pain, anesthesia significantly modulates brain dynamics, metabolic processes, and neural signaling, thereby impairing typical cognitive functions. Furthermore, anesthesia can induce notable impacts such as memory impairment, decreased cognitive function, and diminished intelligence, emphasizing the imperative need to explore the concealed repercussions of anesthesia on individuals. In this investigation, we aggregated gene expression profiles (GSE64617, GSE141242, GSE161322, GSE175894, and GSE178995) from public repositories following second-generation sequencing analysis of various anesthetics. Through scrutinizing post-anesthesia brain tissue gene expression utilizing Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA), Robust Rank Aggregation (RRA), and Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA), this research aims to pinpoint pivotal genes, pathways, and regulatory networks linked to anesthesia. This undertaking not only enhances comprehension of the physiological changes brought about by anesthesia but also lays the groundwork for future investigations, cultivating new insights and innovative perspectives in medical practice.

Neurodevelopment of children exposed to prolonged anesthesia in infancy: GABA study interim analysis of resting-state brain networks at 2, 4, and 10-months old. Neuroimage Clin 2024; 42:103614. [PMID: 38754325 PMCID: PMC11126539 DOI: 10.1016/j.nicl.2024.103614] [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: 01/30/2024] [Revised: 04/30/2024] [Accepted: 05/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have raised concerns regarding neurodevelopmental impacts of early exposures to general anesthesia and surgery. Electroencephalography (EEG) can be used to study ontogeny of brain networks during infancy. As a substudy of an ongoing study, we examined measures of functional connectivity in awake infants with prior early and prolonged anesthetic exposures and in control infants. METHODS EEG functional connectivity was assessed using debiased weighted phase lag index at source and sensor levels and graph theoretical measures for resting state activity in awake infants in the early anesthesia (n = 26 at 10 month visit, median duration of anesthesia = 4 [2, 7 h]) and control (n = 38 at 10 month visit) groups at ages approximately 2, 4 and 10 months. Theta and low alpha frequency bands were of primary interest. Linear mixed models incorporated impact of age and cumulative hours of general anesthesia exposure. RESULTS Models showed no significant impact of cumulative hours of general anesthesia exposure on debiased weighted phase lag index, characteristic path length, clustering coefficient or small-worldness (conditional R2 0.05-0.34). An effect of age was apparent in many of these measures. CONCLUSIONS We could not demonstrate significant impact of general anesthesia in the first months of life on early development of resting state brain networks over the first postnatal year. Future studies will explore these networks as these infants grow older.

Abstract
Background This observation aimed to investigate the effect of colorectal neoplasia differentially expressed (CRNDE) targeted miR-212-5p on cognitive impairment induced by isoflurane (ISO) anesthesia in rats. Methods The cognitive function of rats was measured by Morris water maze test. QRT-PCR detection of CRNDE and miR-212-5p expression levels in rats in each group. Double luciferase was used to verify the targeting relationship between miR-212-5p and CRNDE, and commercial kits were used to detect the level of inflammatory cytokines in hippocampus. Results The concentration of CRNDE was enhanced in rats treated by ISO anesthetic. The neurological severity score was elevated, the escape latency of rats was prolonged, the stay time in the quadrant of the platform, and the number of times crossing the platform decreased in the ISO group. The above indexes of rats in ISO + si-CRNDE were improved. MiR-212-5p is a mediator in the management of CRNDE on cognition and inflammation. Conclusion CRNDE led to the deterioration of impairment on cognition induced by ISO through suppressing miR-212-5p expression and promoting neuroinflammation.
