Front Neurol 2024; 15:1422049. [PMID: 39188709 PMCID: PMC11346340 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2024.1422049] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 07/15/2024] [Indexed: 08/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Dexmedetomidine (DEX) has demonstrated potential as an effective agent for enhancing early postoperative cognitive function. However, there is ongoing debate regarding its optimal dosage and impact on early postoperative inflammatory response. This study aimed to assess and prioritize the effects of varying doses of DEX on early postoperative cognitive function and inflammatory response, in order to identify the most effective intervention dosage. Methods Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and retrospective cohort studies (RCS) from PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library up to January 28, 2024, were included. The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) was utilized to assess the impact of varying doses of DEX on cognitive function during the early postoperative period as the primary outcome, peripheral blood levels of IL-6 and TNF-α were considered as secondary outcomes. Meta-analysis and Bayesian Network Meta-Analysis (NMA) were conducted using R. Funnel plots were generated using Stata 15.0. Results A total of 29 studies involving 2,807 patients and 25 different doses of DEX were included. DEX was given at a loading dose of 0.3-1.0 μg/kg followed by a maintenance dose of 0.1-0.5 μg/kg/h, or at a uniform intraoperative dose of 0.4-0.7 μg/kg/h. Network meta-analysis revealed most doses of DEX were significantly more effective than normal saline (NS) in improving postoperative MMSE scores (on days 1, 3, and 7) and lowering IL-6 and TNF-α levels. Probability results showed that a 1 μg/kg loading dose followed by a 0.6 μg/kg/h maintenance dose was the best dosing regimen for improving MMSE scores on postoperative days 1 (97.3%), 3 (100%), and 7 (99.9%), as well as for reducing postoperative blood IL-6 levels (1.3%). On the other hand, 0.3 μg/kg followed by 0.2 μg/kg/h was the optimal dosing regimen for reducing postoperative blood TNF-α levels (6.6%). Conclusion Compared with NS, intraoperative intravenous DEX improved early postoperative cognitive function and postoperative inflammatory response in patients undergoing elective surgery. In particular, a 1 μg/kg loading dose and a 0.6 μg/kg/h maintenance dose resulted in the best improvement in postoperative MMSE scores and blood IL-6 levels, while a 0.3 μg/kg loading dose followed by a 0.2 μg/kg/h maintenance dose is the optimal regimen for lowering postoperative blood TNF-α levels.Systematic review registration: https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/display_record.php?RecordID=433932, identifier CRD42023433932.

Contemporary Incidence of Cognitive Impairment or Dementia in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Dement Geriatr Cogn Disord 2024:1-15. [PMID: 39047685 DOI: 10.1159/000540450] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Despite the high prevalence of cognitive impairment or dementia post-coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), the incidence of cognitive impairment or dementia post-CABG in contemporary practice is currently unclear. Therefore, this paper aims to investigate the incidence and associated risk factors of cognitive impairment or dementia in patients' post-CABG. METHODS A systematic search across three databases (PubMed, SCOPUS, and Embase) was conducted for studies published in or after 2013 that reported cognitive impairment or dementia post-CABG. Subgroup analyses and meta-regression by risk factors were performed to determine their influence on the results. RESULTS This analysis included 23 studies with a total of 2,620 patients. The incidence of cognitive impairment or dementia less than 1 month, 2 to 6 months, and more than 12 months post-CABG was 35.96% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 28.22-44.51, I2 = 87%), 21.33% (95% CI: 13.44-32.15, I2 = 88%), and 39.13% (95% CI: 21.72-58.84, I2 = 84%), respectively. Meta-regression revealed that studies with more than 80% of the cohort diagnosed with hypertension were significantly associated with incidence of cognitive impairment or dementia less than 1 month post-CABG. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis demonstrates a high incidence of cognitive impairment or dementia in patients' post-CABG in contemporary practice, particularly less than 1 month post-CABG and more than 12 months post-CABG. We found that hypertension was a significant risk factor in the short-term (less than 1 month) follow-up period for cognitive impairment or dementia post-CABG. Future research should be done to assess strategies to reduce cognitive impairment post-CABG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous pairwise meta-analyses demonstrated the efficacy and safety of dexmedetomidine in preventing postoperative delirium (POD) after cardiac surgery; however, the optimal time of applying dexmedetomidine remains unclear. OBJECTIVE This network meta-analysis aimed to determine the optimal time of using dexmedetomidine to reduce the incidence of POD following cardiac surgery. METHODS We first retrieved eligible randomized controlled trials (RCTs) from previous meta-analyses, and then an updated search was performed to identify additional RCTs in PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane library from January 1, 2021 to October 31, 2021. Two authors screened literature, collected data, and evaluated bias risk of eligible studies. Finally, we performed Bayesian network analysis using R version 3.6.1 with the "gemtc" and "rjags" package. RESULTS Eighteen studies with 2636 patients were included, and all studies were identified from previous meta-analyses. Results showed that postoperative dexmedetomidine reduced the risk of POD compared with normal saline (NS) (odds ratio [OR], 0.13; 95% credible interval [CrI], 0.03-0.35) and propofol (PRO) (OR, 0.19; 95%CrI, 0.04-0.66). Postoperative dexmedetomidine was associated with a lower incidence of POD compared with perioperative dexmedetomidine (OR, 0.21; 95% CrI, 0.04-0.82). Moreover, postoperative dexmedetomidine had the highest probability of ranking best (90.98%), followed by intraoperative dexmedetomidine (46.83%), PRO (36.94%), perioperative dexmedetomidine (30.85%), and NS (60.02%). CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE Dexmedetomidine reduces the incidence of POD compared with PRO and NS in patients undergoing cardiac surgery, and postoperative application of dexmedetomidine is the optimal time.

Dexmedetomidine Increases MMP-12 and MBP Concentrations after Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery with Extracorporeal Circulation Anaesthesia without Impacting Cognitive Function: A Randomised Control Trial. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:16512.

Abstract
Postoperative neurological deficits remain a concern for patients undergoing cardiac surgeries. Even minor injuries can lead to neurocognitive decline (i.e., postoperative cognitive dysfunction). Dexmedetomidine may be beneficial given its reported neuroprotective effect. We aimed to investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine on brain injury during cardiac surgery anaesthesia. This prospective observational study analysed data for 46 patients who underwent coronary artery bypass graft surgery with extracorporeal circulation between August 2018 and March 2019. The patients were divided into two groups: control (CON) with typical anaesthesia and dexmedetomidine (DEX) with dexmedetomidine infusion. Concentrations of the biomarkers matrix metalloproteinase-12 (MMP-12) and myelin basic protein (MBP) were measured preoperatively and at 24 and 72 h postoperatively. Cognitive evaluations were performed preoperatively, at discharge, and 3 months after discharge using Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination version III (ACE-III). The primary endpoint was the ACE-III score at discharge. Increased MMP-12 and MBP concentrations were observed in the DEX group 24 and 72 h postoperatively. No significant differences in ACE-III scores were observed between the groups at discharge; however, the values were increased when compared with initial values after 3 months (p = 0.000). The current results indicate that the administration of dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant to anaesthesia can increase MMP-12 and MBP levels without effects on neurocognitive outcomes at discharge and 3 months postoperatively.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction is extremely prevalent following cardiac surgery. The increasing patient age and comorbidity profile increases their susceptibility to cognitive impairment. The underlying pathophysiological mechanisms leading to cognitive impairment are not clearly elucidated. Using the contemporary literature (2015-present), this narrative review has three aims. Firstly, to provide an overview of postoperative cognitive impairment. Secondly, to analyse the predominant pathophysiological mechanisms leading to cognitive dysfunction following cardiac surgery such as inflammation, cerebral hypoperfusion, cerebral microemboli, glycaemic control and anaesthesia induced neurotoxicity. Lastly, to assess the current therapeutic strategies of interest to address these pathophysiological mechanisms, including the administration of dexamethasone, the prevention of prolonged cerebral desaturations and the monitoring of cerebral perfusion using near-infrared spectroscopy, surgical management strategies to reduce the neurological effects of microemboli, intraoperative glycaemic control strategies, the effect of volatile vs. intravenous anaesthesia, and the efficacy of dexmedetomidine.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cerebral ischemic injury is associated with long-term disability. Dexmedetomidine (Dex) can exert neuroprotective effects on cerebral ischemic/reperfusion injury. The present study explored the mechanism of Dex in cerebral ischemic injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS To this end, the permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (p-MCAO) mouse model was established and treated with Dex or/and Nrf2 inhibitor ML385. Subsequently, microglia were subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) in sugar-free environment and thereafter treated with Dex, Nrf2 inhibitor, and NLRP3 lentiviral overexpression vector, respectively. RESULTS Dex alleviated the neurobehavioral deficit of p-MCAO mice, reduced brain water content, relieved pathological changes, and reduced cerebral infarction size. Dex promoted the polarization of microglia from M1 to M2, thus ameliorating oxidative stress and inflammatory responses. Our results showed that Dex promoted M2-polarization of microglia in vivo and in vitro by promoting HO-1 expression via Nrf2 nuclear import. Moreover, the Nrf2/HO-1 axis inhibited the activation of NLRP2 inflammasome and NLRP3 overexpression reversed the effect of Dex. CONCLUSION In conclusion, Dex promoted M2-polarization of microglia and attenuated oxidative stress and inflammation, and thus protected against cerebral ischemic injury by activating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway and inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome.

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis With Trial Sequential Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials. Front Med (Lausanne) 2021; 8:645975. [PMID: 34660613 PMCID: PMC8511308 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2021.645975] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2020] [Accepted: 08/30/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: To assess the effect of dexmedetomidine on the reducing risk of perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PNDs) following cardiac surgery. Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis with trial sequential analysis (TSA) of randomized controlled trials were performed. PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and CNKI databases (to August 16, 2020) were searched for relevant articles to analyze the incidence of PND for intraoperative or postoperative dexmedetomidine administration after cardiac surgery. PND included postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and postoperative delirium (POD). Results: A total of 24 studies with 3,610 patients were included. Compared with the control group, the incidence of POD in the dexmedetomidine group was significantly lower (odds ratio [OR]: 0.59, 95% CI: 0.43–0.82, P = 0.001), with firm evidence from TSA. Subgroup analyses confirmed that dexmedetomidine reduced the incidence of POD with firm evidence following coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (OR: 0.45, 95% CI: 0.26–0.79, P = 0.005), and intervention during the postoperative period (OR: 0.48, 95% CI: 0.34–0.67, P < 0.001). Furthermore, the incidence of POD in the dexmedetomidine group was also decreased in mixed cardiac surgery (OR: 0.68, 95% CI: 0.47–0.98, P = 0.039). Irrespective of whether “Confusion Assessment Method/Confusion Assessment Method for intensive care unit” or “other tools” were used as diagnostic tools, the results showed a decreased risk of POD in the dexmedetomidine group. There was no significant difference in the incidence of POCD (OR: 0.47, 95% CI: 0.22–1.03, P = 0.060) between the two groups, but this result lacked firm evidence from TSA. Conclusion: The administration of dexmedetomidine during the perioperative period reduced the incidence of POD in patients after cardiac surgery, but there was no significant benefit in the incidence of POCD. The effect of dexmedetomidine on the incidence of POD or POCD following different types of surgery and the optimal dose and timing of dexmedetomidine warrant further investigation.

Abstract
Background This study aims to analyze the influence of different dexmedetomidine doses on cognitive function. It works on early periods of patients undergoing laparoscopic extensive total hysterectomy. Method 119 patients with gynecological cancer underwent a laparoscopic extensive total hysterectomy. The operation was performed at the Affiliated Women's and Children's Hospital of Xiamen University from January 2019 to June 2020. The score of MoCA and the level of TNF-α, IL-6, S-100β protein, NSE, and GFAP of each group were compared 1 day before and after operation and 3 and 7 days after operation. Result In four groups, remifentanil, sufentanil, and propofol were given in the following order: group A > group D > group C > group B. Group A > group D > group C in terms of time spent in the recovery room, extubation, and recovery from anesthesia. The difference between groups B and C was not significant (P > 0.05). Compared with group A, group B scored higher in MoCA at 1 day (T1), 3 days (T2), and 7 days (T3) after operation (P < 0.05). At the same scoring point, the score was group B > group C > group D > group A. The POCD of four groups all occurred at 3 days after surgery. Compared with the T0 point, the level of TNF-α and IL-6 of the four groups at T1 and T2 was significantly increased (P < 0.05). At T3, the level of TNF-α and IL-6 gradually decreased. At various periods, the levels of S-100 protein, NSE, and GFAP in groups B, C, and D were lower than those in group A (P0.05). Group B had a substantially higher rate of bradycardia than the other three groups (P0.05). The incidence of chills, respiratory depression, and restlessness in group A differed significantly from the other three groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion Using 0.5 μg/kg dexmedetomidine during the perianaesthesia can effectively reduce anesthetic drugs in patients. They had a laparoscopic extensive complete hysterectomy, which helps to reduce the adverse responses and the occurrence of POCD while also protecting brain function.

Preoperative red cell distribution width predicts postoperative cognitive dysfunction after coronary artery bypass grafting. Biosci Rep 2021; 40:222630. [PMID: 32271371 PMCID: PMC7178207 DOI: 10.1042/bsr20194448] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2019] [Revised: 04/01/2020] [Accepted: 04/06/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
We assessed the relationship between red blodd cell distribution width (RDW) and postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients who usually had obvious hemodynamic changes. We enrolled 362 coronary heart disease patients who received CABG. POCD was assessed through neuropsychological examination at 21 days after operation. Demographics, history of diseases, blood biochemical parameters and perioperative data were collected. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to find the best cut-off value of RDW for diagnosis of POCD. Logistic regression was used to explore the relationship between RDW and POCD. The 21-day incidence of POCD in patients receiving CABG was 27.1% (98/362). The RDW of POCD patients was significantly higher than in the non-POCD patients (17.4 vs. 13.2). The sensitivity and specificity of RDW for predicting POCD were 82.7 and 64.8%, respectively. The POCD patients also tended to be older and had higher fasting plasma glucose, hypersensitive c-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor-α, white blood cell levels and longer surgery time. No significant differences were found in other parameters. The 21-day neuropsychological test results were better in the POCD patients than the non-POCD patients. After adjustment of potential factors, the preoperative high RDW was still associated with an increased risk of POCD (odds ratio (OR) = 2.52, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.28–4.31). Our study indicates that preoperative RDW is significantly elevated in POCD patients receiving CABG. The elevated preoperative RDW is associated with an increased risk of POCD and preoperative RDW can be an independent predictor of POCD.

Assessment of risk factors for postoperative cognitive dysfunction after coronary artery bypass surgery: a single-center retrospective cohort study. Biosci Rep 2021; 41:227701. [PMID: 33511391 PMCID: PMC7901012 DOI: 10.1042/bsr20190719] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2019] [Revised: 01/15/2021] [Accepted: 01/27/2021] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Aim: To find out risk factors for postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), and to provide basis for clinical prevention of POCD. A total of 88 patients who underwent CABG were surveyed with Telephone Questionnaire (TICS-M) for their cognitive impairment after 3, 7, 21, 90, 180 days post-surgery. The occurrence of POCD was diagnosed by Neuropsychological Battery which included Vocabular Learning Test (VLT), Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST), Trail Making Test (TMT) and Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT). The preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative risk factors were assessed by the χ2 or t test. Multivariate analysis was used to study the correlation between the risk factors and the occurrence of POCD. Age, aortic plaque, carotid artery stenosis, cerebrovascular disease, anesthesia time, the rate of decline in intraoperative hemoglobin concentration (ΔHb) and systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) score on postoperative day 2 had statistically significant (P<0.05) influence on the occurrence of POCD. Aortic plaque, carotid artery stenosis, anesthesia time and SIRS score (odds ratio (OR) value > 1, P<0.05) are the risk factors for POCD. The incidence of day-21 and -180 POCD was approximately 26.1 and 22.7%, respectively.

Preoperative Chronic and Acute Pain Affects Postoperative Cognitive Function Mediated by Neurotransmitters. J Mol Neurosci 2020; 71:515-526. [PMID: 32901371 DOI: 10.1007/s12031-020-01673-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2020] [Accepted: 07/20/2020] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
The effective prevention of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) needs to be explored, and the effect of preoperative pain on POCD remains unclear. We established a chronic pain model induced by chronic constriction injury (CCI) and models of acute pain and anxiety without pain in mice that were subsequently subjected to partial hepatectomy surgery. Morris water maze (MWM) tests were performed to evaluate the learning and memory abilities of the mice. ELISA was used to measure IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in serum, and HPLC-MS was used to detect neurotransmitters in the prefrontal cortices and hippocampi of the mice. The results indicated that chronic pain induced by CCI might have significantly impaired the learning and memory abilities of mice, while acute pain and anxiety without pain only affected the memory abilities of mice. Perioperative acute pain increased the level of IL-1β in serum, and CCI might have increased the level of IL-6. CCI and acute pain increased dopamine (DA) levels in the cortex, similar to anxiety. Like anxiety, CCI increased 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) levels in the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus. Acute pain led to a decrease in the acetylcholine (ACH) level in the hippocampus. Our results suggest that acute pain and CCI-induced chronic pain might aggravate postoperative cognitive dysfunction via neurotransmitters and by changing the levels of inflammatory factors such as IL-1β and IL-6.

Abstract
Dexmedetomidine (DEX) was widely used in clinical work. However, the effectiveness of DEX on postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) was still need to be confirmed. The aim of this meta-analysis was to explore whether DEX can reduce the incidence of POCD on the first day and seventh postoperative day. The results showed that lower incidence of POCD associated with DEX treatment on the first (odds ratio [OR]: 0.41; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.31-0.54) or seventh postoperative day (OR: 0.53; 95% CI: 0.36-0.77). Mini-Mental State Examination scores on the first (mean difference [MD]: 4.67; 95% CI: 1.72-7.63) and seventh postoperative days (MD: 3.71; 95% CI: 2.51-4.90) were higher in DEX use group than that in physiological saline group. Meanwhile, neuron-specific enolase (NSE; MD: −3.99; 95% CI: −6.20 to −1.78) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) levels (MD: −17.53; 95% CI: −21.51 to −13.54) on the first postoperative day in DEX group were lower than that in the physiological saline group. This meta-analysis suggested that DEX use could reduce the risk of POCD and the reduction in levels of NSE and IL-6 can improve long-term cognitive dysfunction and anti-inflammation.

Abstract
The risk of dementia increases in patients with cognitive impairment. However, it is not clear what factors contribute to the onset of dementia in those with cognitive impairment. In this prospective cohort study, we will investigate the every-five-year incidence of cognitive impairment and prognostic factors for cognitive impairment. The Jidong cognitive impairment cohort was established from April 2012 to August 2015, during which we recruited 5854 healthy participants (55.1% male) older than 45 years (mean, 57 years). Participants received a health examination in the Staff Hospital, Jidong Oilfield Branch, China National Petroleum Corporation. Baseline data and blood samples were collected. Cognitive impairment was evaluated using the Mini-Mental State Examination, and was defined as a Mini-Mental State Examination score of less than 24. Dementia was assessed using the criteria of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (Fourth edition), the International Working Group criteria, and the Mini-Mental State Examination score. The follow-up will continue until December 2024, during which a prognostic model will be constructed. The primary outcome is the presence/absence of dementia and the secondary outcome is quality of life. Baseline screening results showed the following: (1) Cognitive impairment was apparent in 320 participants (5.5%). These participants will be excluded from the Jidong cohort study, and the remaining participants will be followed up. (2) Of the 320 participants with cognitive impairment, there was a significantly higher prevalence of illiteracy than other education levels (35.9%, P < 0.05). Age, arterial hypertension, alcohol consumption, and passive smoking differed significantly between the cognitive impairment and healthy groups (P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression models showed that age (odds ratio [OR] = 1.059, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.044–1.074) and arterial hypertension (OR = 1.665, 95% CI: 1.143–2.427) were risk factors for mild cognitive impairment. With the increase of educational level (illiteracy, primary school, junior high school, high school, university, and above), cognitive impairment gradually decreased (OR < 1, P < 0.05). (3) This cohort study has initially screened for several risk factors for cognitive impairment at baseline, and subsequent prospective data will further describe, validate, and evaluate the effects of these risk factors on cognitive impairment and dementia. These results can provide clinical evidence for the early prevention of cognitive impairment and dementia. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Kailuan General Hospital of Tangshan City and the Medical Ethics Committee, Staff Hospital, Jidong Oilfield Branch, China National Petroleum Corporation on July 12, 2013 (approval No. 2013 YILUNZI 1).

DRUG DESIGN DEVELOPMENT AND THERAPY 2019; 13:3465-3475. [PMID: 31631971 PMCID: PMC6781164 DOI: 10.2147/dddt.s210511] [Citation(s) in RCA: 49] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2019] [Accepted: 08/30/2019] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
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.
