Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of chronic exposure to low concentration sevoflurance on hippocampus in SD fetal rats.Methods:Totally sixty female SD rats at clean grade weighing 240-260 g were randomly divided into four groups , the control group and sevoflurane groups (n=15).The three experimental groups were respectively treated with 30 mg· L-1(parts permillion1 × 10 -6), 100 mg· L-1 and 300 mg· L-1 sevoflurane with 6-hour inhalation, qd for 2 weeks, while the control group breathed fresh air with the same volume .After mating conception , the rats inhaled the same concentration sevoflurane or air till scarification on the 19 th day.Half of brain in the fetal rats was withdrawn to prepare the paraffin specimens , and immunohistochemistry was used to detect the apoptosis in hippocampal CA 1 region associated with protein Bcl-2 and Bax.The hippocampus was stripped from the other half of brain and 10%homogenate was prepared, and the activity level of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) were detected.Results:Bcl-2 in hippocampus CA1 region in 300 mg· L-1 group was lower than that in the control group , while Bax was higher than that in the control group (P<0.05);SOD was lower in 300mg· L-1 group than that in the control group , and MDA was higher than that in control group (P <0.05) .The other two sevoflurane groups had no differences when compared with the con-trol group (P >0.05).Conclusion:Low concentration inhalation of sevoflurane above 300mg· L-1 can enhance the cell apoptosis in hippocampus through increasing the oxidative stress reaction in embryonic brain of SD rat resulting in excessive MDA and reduced SOD.
