Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of erythropoietin (EPO) attenuating apoptosis in old rat hippocampal neuronal cells exposed to sevoflurane and the role of toll like receptor 4.Methods Twenty months old SD rats,male,550-750 g,in accordance with the random number table,were divided into 3 groups (n =9):control group (group C),sevoflurane treatment (group S),and sevoflurane plus EPO treatment (group ES).The rats in group S and ES were subjected to inhale 4％ sevoflurane for 6 h,but the rats in group C were inhaled air-oxygen only.The rats in group ES were injected with EPO into caudal vein at 24 h,48 h,and 72 h after sevoflurane exposure.The cognitive ability was assessed by Morris water maze test;the effects of hippocampal apoptosis were assessed by TUNEL assays;the expressions of TLR4 mRNA was measured by RT-PCR assay;mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was assessed by JC-1 fluorescence;the expressions of APP and Aβ were assessed by western blot.Results Compared with group C,there were significant increases of escape latency period,neuronal apoptosis,TLR4 mRNA,and APP and Aβ expression,but a decrease of MMP in group S (P＜0.05).Compared with group S,there were significant decreases of escape latency period,neuronal apoptosis,TLR4 mRNA,and APP and Aβ expression,but a increase of MMP in group ES (P＜0.05).Conclusion The attenuation of rat hippocampal neuronal apoptosis induced by EPO could be associated with inhibition of TLR4,improvement of MMP,as well as inhibition of APP and Aβ activity.
