Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of sevoflurane anesthesia in diabetic pregnant rats on the cognitive function of the offspring rats. Methods Forty female Sprague?Dawley rats and 5 male rats, weighing 200-250 g, were used in the study. Twenty pregnant rats at 7 weeks of gestation were randomly selected, and diabetes mellitus was induced by intraperitoneal streptozotocin 45 mg∕kg and confirmed by blood glucose level>10.4 mmol∕L. Twenty pregnant rats at 20 days of gestation, in which diabetes mellitus was not induced, were selected and divided into 2 groups ( n=10 each) using a random number table:sevoflurane group (group S) and control group (group C). Twenty pregnant rats at 20 days of gestation with diabetes mellitus were selected and divided into 2 groups ( n=10 each) using a random number table:sevoflurane group (group DS) and control group ( group DC). In DS and S groups, the pregnant rats were placed in a self?made anesthetic box and inhaled 2% sevoflurane for 2 h. At 6 weeks after birth, the offspring rats were selected, and Morris water maze test was performed. The rats were sacrificed, brains were removed, and the hippocampi and cortex were removed for determination of phosphorylated cyclic a?denosine monophosphate response element?binding protein ( p?CREB) expression using immuno?histochem?istry. Results Compared with group C, the escape latency was significantly prolonged, and the frequency of crossing the original platform was significantly decreased in S and DC groups ( P<0.05) . Compared with group DC, the escape latency was significantly prolonged, and the frequency of crossing the original plat?form was significantly decreased in group DS (P<0.01). Compared with group S, the escape latency was significantly prolonged, the frequency of crossing the original platform was significantly decreased ( P<0.05) , and lighter staining for p?CREB was found, and the number of p?CREB positive cells was decreased in the hippocampus and cortex in group DS. Conclusion Sevoflurane anesthesia?induced cognitive dys?function is aggravated in the offspring rats of diabetic pregnant rats, and the mechanism is related to inhibi?tion of CREB phosphorylation.
