Lidocaine effects on increasing levels of malondiadehyde and lactate in rats cortex brain cells cultured under anoxic condition / 中华麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective: To determine the mechanism of protective effects of lidocaine on brain during ischemia. Method: Wistar rats within 24h after birth were enrolled. The brain cortex cells were separated and then cutured under normal or anoxic condition. The OD value of these cells were detected with rapid colorimetric assay after they were cultured 24h and 48h. According to the above values, other cells were cultured in different condition and divided intc three groups: control group(N) cultured under normal condition (37℃, 5%CO_2+95%air); anoxic group(A) and anoxic+ lidoeaine group(L) cultured under anoxic condition(37℃, 5%CO_2+95%N_2). 6.9?10~(-5)mol/L lidocaine was added to the medium in group L. Cells of these three groups were cultured under different condition for 48h, then malondiadehyde and lactate levels of each group were measured. Result: The survival cells of anoxic group were significantly lower than that of control group after cultured for 48h, the malondiadehyde levels were as follows (nmol/ml): group N(4.93 ?0.43, n=12), group A(5.56?0.34, n=12), group L(4. 80?0.25, n=11); the lactate levels (mmol/L): group N(8.05?1.64, n=21), group A (11.86?2.58, n=22), group L(9.96?1.88, n=21), Conclusion: Lidocaine may protect brain from ischemia through inhibiting malondiadehyde and lactate production induced by anoxia.
