Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effects of sevoflurane on hippocampal neurogenesis in den-tate gyrus (DG) of mice of different ages. Methods Ninety-six SPF healthy male C57BL∕6 mice, aged 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 9 months and 20 months (24 mice for each age, 12 mice for each group), were divided into 2 groups (n＝48 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C) and sevoflurane group (group S). Group S inhaled 3. 0% sevoflurane for 2 h once a day for 3 consecutive days, while group C inhaled the mixture of air and O2. Six mice of each age were selected, and 5′-bromo-2′-deoxyuridine (BrdU) 50 mg∕kg was intraperitoneally injected immediately before and after inhalation once a day for 3 consecutive days in two groups. Mice were sacrificed at 24 h after the last inhalation (T1), brains were re-moved and hippocampi isolated for determination of the number of nestin and doublecortin ( DCX) positive cells in DG by immunohistochemistry. Mice were sacrificed at 4 weeks after the last inhalation ( T2), brains were removed and hippocampi isolated for determination of the number of neuronal nuclei antigen (NeuN)∕BrdU and glial fibrillary acid protein ( GFAP )∕BrdU positive cells by immunofluorescence. Re-sults Compared with group C, the number of nestin and DCX positive cells was significantly reduced at T1, and the number of NeuN∕BrdU and GFAP∕BrdU positive cells was reduced at T2in mice of 2 weeks and 20 months old (P＜0. 05), and no significant change was found in the indices mentioned above in mice of 6 weeks and 9 months old in group S ( P＞0. 05). Conclusion Three percent sevoflurane can inhibit hipp-ocampal neurogenesis in DG of immature and old mice and exerts no influence on hippocampal neurogenesis in DG of juvenile and adult mice.
