Effects of isoflurane anesthesia on hippocampus synaptosomes proteome in aged rats / 中华麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of isoflurane anesthesia on hippocampus synaptosomes proteome in aged rats.MethodsTwenty-seven 22- month-old SD rats weighing 480-550 g were randomly divided into 2 groups control group (group C,n =6) and isoflurane group (group Ⅰ,n =21 ).In group C inhaled mixed gas containing 80％ oxygen for 2 h.In group Ⅰ the animals were endotracheal intubated after induction by 3％ isoflurane and inhaled 2％ isoflurane and 80％ oxygen for 2 h.Cognition function was evaluated by Y-maze at 24 h after anesthesia and the total training times were recorded.The total training times ＞ 75 was defined as cognitive dysfuction.In group Ⅰ the animals were divided into cognitive dysfuction group (group ⅠA) and non-cognitive dysfuction group (group IB) according to the results of Y-maze test.The animals were sacrificed and their hippocampi were removed and synaptosomes were extracted for two-dimensional gel electrophoresis.The different protein spots were analyzed by mass chromatographic analysis.ResultsSix rats had cognitive dysfuction (group IA) and another thirteen rats had no cognitive dysfuction (group IB).The total training times were significantly higher in group IA than in groups C and IB( P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the total training times between groups C and IB (P ＞ 0.05).There were 21 (11/10) different protein spots between groups IB and IA,and 19 (12/7) different protein spots between groups C and IA.Thirty-one protein spots were identified by means of MALDI-TOF-MS.ConclusionThe cognitive dysfuction after isoflurane anesthesia in aged rats may be related to the changes of energy metabolism protein,cytoskeletal structure and regulatory protein in synapse of hippocampus.
