ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine (DEX) on intestinal barrier function impairment in gynecologic neoplasms patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery and the possible role of silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) in this process.Methods:A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted. Forty patients who were to undergo laparoscopic surgery of gynecologic neoplasms under general anesthesia in the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from May 2022 to May 2023 were prospectively selected. All patients were divided into the experimental group and the control group using the method of randomized numerical table, with 20 cases in each group. The experimental group was given a loading dose of DEX 0.5 μg/kg (intravenously pumped in 10 min) before induction of general anesthesia, and then maintained with DEX 0.2 μg·kg -1·h -1 until 30 min before the end of surgery. In the control group, the same dose of 0.9% sodium chloride injection was pumped intravenously. Taking 5 ml of peripheral venous blood from the upper extremities 10 min before induction of anesthesia (T 1), 1 h after the release of pneumoperitoneum (T 2) and 24 h after the release of pneumoperitoneum (T 3), respectively, the serum levels of SIRT1 and Claudin-1 proteins were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Then the concentrations of SIRT1 and Claudin-1 proteins and the time of first postoperative exhaust in the two groups of patients were compared. Results:The differences in age, body mass index, pneumoperitoneum time, operation time and anesthesia time between the two groups were not statistically significant (all P >0.05). At T 1, there was no statistically significant difference in concentrations of SIRT1 [(10.2±1.5) ng/ml vs. (10.0±1.3) ng/ml, t = 0.46, P = 0.468] and Claudin-1 [(405±45) pg/ml vs. (404±40) pg/ml, t = 0.13, P = 0.901] proteins between the control group and the experimental group. At T 2, the concentrations of SIRT1 [(8.4±1.3) ng/ml vs. (6.1±1.3) ng/ml, t=-5.55, P<0.001] and Claudin-1 [(383±39) pg/ml vs. (331±44) pg/ml, t=-4.02, P<0.001] proteins in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant. At T 3, the concentrations of SIRT1 [(8.4±1.2) ng/ml vs. (6.7±1.1) ng/ml, t=-4.56, P<0.001] and Claudin-1 [(388±40) pg/ml vs. (341±43) pg/ml, t=-3.63, P<0.001] proteins in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant. The time of first postoperative exhaust in the experimental group was shorter than that in the control group [(21.7±2.2) h vs. (27.9±3.4) h], and the difference was statistically significant ( t =6.78, P < 0.001). Conclusions:Dexmedetomidine may reduce the intestinal epithelial cell injury induced by laparoscopic surgery in patients with gynecologic neoplasms via activating SIRT1, and exert a protective effect on intestinal barrier function.

The changes of interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-10 (IL-10), the proportion of CD4 +, the proportion of CD8 + and CD4 +/CD8 + ratio of the three groups were compared, and the cases of bradycardia and hypotension in perioperative period and the time of first exhaust after operation were recorded. Results:At T 1,T 2 and T 3, the expression level of IL-6 in the control group was (7.95±0.26) pg/ml, (8.30±0.24) pg/ml and (8.35±0.28) pg/ml, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 14.14, P < 0.001); the expression level of IL-10 in the control group was (38.9±2.6) pg/ml, (44.5±6.6) pg/ml and (46.3±4.6) pg/ml, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 12.45, P < 0.001); the proportion of CD4 + in the control group was (38.5±2.1)%, (29.5±4.6)% and (29.6±3.5)%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 40.82, P < 0.001); the ratio of CD8 + in the control group was (30.1±3.7)%, (35.1±6.3)% and (40.3±8.2)%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 13.02, P < 0.001); the CD4 +/CD8 + ratio in the control group was 1.29±0.14, 0.84±0.09 and 0.75±0.14, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 99.94, P < 0.001). The expression level of IL-6 in group D1 and group D2 was (8.10±0.32) pg/ml and (8.01±0.30) pg/ml at T 2, and (8.12±0.35) pg/ml and (8.05±0.34) pg/ml at T 3,which were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). The expression level of IL-10 in group D2 was (40.6±3.5) pg/ml at T 2, which was lower than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05). At T 3, the expression level of IL-10 in group D1 and group D2 was (43.7±3.5) pg/ml and (42.4±3.9) pg/ml, which were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). At T 2, the proportion of CD4 + in group D2 was (34.5±4.3)%, which was higher than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05).

At T 2, the proportion of CD8 + in group D2 was (30.7±5.5)%, which was lower than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05). At T 3, the proportion of CD8 + in group D1 and group D2 was (35.4±5.8)% and (32.5±5.1)%, which were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). The CD4 +/CD8 + ratio in group D1 and D2 was 0.99±0.17 and 1.14±0.16 at T 2, 0.93±0.19 and 1.05±0.16 at T 3, which were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Meanwhile, 1 case of hypotension occurred in the the control group and group D1, respectively; 3 cases of bradycardia and 2 cases of hypotension occurred in the group D2. The time of exhaust in the control group was later than that in group D1 and D2, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05). Conclusions:DEX can inhibit the inflammatory reaction during laparoscopic surgery in patients with gynecological malignant tumors, reduce immune damage. The anti-inflammatory action and immune protection of high-dose of DEX is more significant compared with low-dose of DEX, while high dose of DEX is more likely to cause hemodynamic fluctuations in perioperative period.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the effects of dexmedetomidine (DEX) on intestinal stress response and cellular immune function in patients with gynecologic malignancies undergoing laparoscopic surgery.Methods:A total of 60 patients with gynecologic malignancies who scheduled to undergo laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia in the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from March 2021 to March 2022 were selected. All patients were divided into the DEX group and the control group according to the random number table method, with 30 cases in each group. The DEX group included 12 cases of cervical cancer, 10 cases of endometrial cancer and 8 cases of ovarian cancer; the control group included 14 cases of cervical cancer, 9 cases of endometrial cancer and 7 cases of ovarian cancer. The DEX group: intravenous anesthesia was induced with a dose of DEX 0.5 μg/kg (infusion was completed within 10 min), general anesthesia was maintained with DEX 0.2 μg·kg -1·h -1 pumped intravenously, and the drug was stopped 30 min before surgery. The control group: equal amount of 0.9% sodium chloride solution was pumped intravenously. The venous blood was drawn at the time points of 10 min before general anesthesia (T 0), at the end of operation (T 1) and 1 d after the operation (T 2) to detect the stress response indicators such as cortisol (COR), epinephrine (E), norepinephrine (NE) levels, and immune indicators such as CD4 +, CD8 + proportions and CD4 +/CD8 + at T 0, T 1,and T 2. In addition, the pneumoperitoneum time, general anesthesia time, operation time and intestinal function recovery time were recorded. Results:At T 0, there were no statistically significant differences in the levels of COR, E and NE between the DEX group and the control group (all P > 0.05). At T 1, the levels of COR, E and NE were (146±12) μg/L, (158±14) ng/L, (265±12) ng/L, respectively in the control group, and (136±18) μg/L, (149±15) ng/L, (158±12) ng/L, respectively in the DEX group; the levels of COR, E and NE in the DEX group were lower than those in the control group ( t values were -2.51, -2.37, -2.08, all P < 0.05). At T 2, the levels of COR, E and NE were (124±12) μg/L, (131±16) ng/L, (234±8) ng/L, respectively in the control group, and (116±15) μg/L, (123±12) ng/L, (228±10) ng/L, respectively in the DEX group; the levels of COR, E and NE in the DEX group were also lower than those in the control group ( t values were -2.35, -2.23, -2.17, all P < 0.05). At T 0, there were no statistically significant differences in the proportions of CD4 +, CD8 + and CD4 +/CD8 + between the DEX group and the control group (all P > 0.05). At T 1, the proportions of CD4 +, CD8 + and CD4 +/CD8 + were (23±3)%, (20±3)%, 1.12±0.16, respectively in the control group, and (27±4)%, (23±4)%,1.22±0.19, respectively in the DEX group; the proportions of CD4 +, CD8 + and CD4 +/CD8 + in the DEX group were higher than those in the control group ( t values were -3.43, -2.29, 2.13, all P < 0.05). At T 2, the proportions of CD4 +, CD8 + and CD4 +/CD8 + were (26±3)%, (23±4)%, 1.17±0.16, respectively in the control group, and (31±5)%, (25±4)%, 1.26±0.19, respectively in the DEX group; the proportions of CD4 +, CD8 + and CD4 +/CD8 + in the DEX group were higher than those in the control group ( t values were -4.32, -2.02, 2.02, all P < 0.05). In addition, the time of first exhaust in the DEX group was shorter than that in the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:DEX can reduce the intestinal stress response of gynecologic malignancies patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery, thereby improving the immunosuppression of patients. It is also of great significance to protect intestinal mucosal barrier and recover the intestinal function, and DEX has a high safety.

Accroding to the random number table method, the patients were divided into control group (group C), low-dose Dex group (group D 1) and high-dose Dex group (group D 2), with 20 cases in each group. Patients in group D 1 were given Dex 0.5 μg·kg -1·h -1 by constant rate intravenous infusion pump after induction until 30 min before the end of operation. Patients in group D 2 were given Dex 1.0 μg·kg -1·h -1 by constant rate intravenous infusion pump after induction until 30 min before the end of operation. Group C adopted the same calculation method and received the same amount of 0.9% sodium chloride solution by infusion pump. At 10 min before induction (T 1), 1 hour after pneumoperitoneum (T 2) and 12 hours after pneumoperitoneum (T 3), 5 ml of brachial vein blood was collected from the patients, and the levels of claudin-1 protein, DAO and blood glucose were measured. Results:At T 1, T 2 and T 3, the expression levels of claudin-1 in group C were (77.05±17.61) pg/ml, (66.76±12.97) pg/ml and (55.93±12.71) pg/ml, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 10.449, P<0.05); the expression levels of DAO in group C were (4.83±0.93) ng/ml, (5.62±1.01) ng/ml and (5.98±1.21) ng/ml, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 6.139, P < 0.05); the levels of blood glucose in group C were (4.82±0.66) mmol/L, (7.55±0.94) mmol/L and (6.51±0.54) mmol/L, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 70.197, P < 0.05). At T 2, the expression level of claudin-1 in group D 1 was (69.12±13.02) pg/ml, which was not significantly different from group C ( t = -0.575, P > 0.05); the expression level of claudin-1 in group D 2 was (76.36±14.89) pg/ml, which was higher than that in group C, and the difference was statistically significant ( t = -2.175, P < 0.05). At T 3, the expression levels of claudin-1 in group D 1 and group D 2 were (66.14±14.36) pg/ml and (73.37±16.93) pg/ml, which were higher than that in group C, and the differences were statistically significant ( t values were -2.380 and -3.682, both P < 0.05). The expression levels of DAO in group D 1 and group D 2 were (5.02±0.84) ng/ml and (4.91±0.93) ng/ml at T 2, and (5.29±0.86) ng/ml and (5.20±0.98) ng/ml at T 3, which were lower than those in group C, and the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.051, 2.295, 2.079 and 2.285, all P < 0.05).

ABSTRACT

Aim To investigate the effects of 17β-es-tradiol on the apoptosis induced by ketamine in primary cultured cortical neurons. Methods Primary cultured cortical neurons were treated with different concentra-tions of ketamine or 17β-estradiol respectively. 24 hours after various treatments, neuron viability was measured by MTT assay. The structure of neurons was analyzed using microscope. Apoptotic neurons were de-termined by the TUNEL assay. The level of pAkt ex-pression was analyzed by Western blot. ResultsCompared with the control group, ketamine decreased neuron viability in a dose-dependent manner. Com-pared with ketamine group, 17β-estradiol increased neuron viability in a dose-dependent manner. Lack of three-dimensional sense,faded color,uncleared outline were observed, and fractured neuron axons or neurons death were also observed in neurons treated by 100μmol · L-1 ketamine. 100 μmol · L-1 ketamine in-creased the number of apoptotic neurons and decreased the expression of pAkt. 0.1 μmol · L-1 17β-estradiol decreased the number of apoptotic neurons and in-creased the expression of pAkt. LY294002 inhibited the protective effects of 17β-estradiol, the number of apoptotic neurons increased, and the level of pAkt de-creased significantly. Conclusion 17β-estradiol ex-erts the neuroprotective effects against ketamine-in-duced neuroapoptosis by activating the PI3 K/Akt sig-naling pathway.
