Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of alpha 7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7 nAchR), cholinesterase (AChE), choline acetyl translocase (ChaT) after sevoflurane anesthesia. Methods A total of 120 healthy Sprague-Dawley rats with both two genders, aged 1 week, were randomly divided into 5 groups: blank group; air/O2 group; sevoflurane group (group SEV); α7 nAchR agonist group (group PUN); α7 nAchR antagonist group (group MLA), 24 in each group. Blank group received free feeding, air/O2 group was inhaled 60% oxygen (carrier gas: 1 L/min O2+1 L/min air) 2 h; group SEV was inhaled 3.4% sevoflurane and carrier gas for 2 h; group PUN and group MLA were injected with PNU-282987 and methyllycaconitine, respectively, after 24 h inhaled of 3.4% sevoflurane and carrier gas for 2 h. After that, hippocampus dissection carried out in 2 h, 1 w, 4 w, and Western blot method was used to detect α7 nAchR, AChE, ChaT proteins expression. Results Two hours after anesthesia recovery, α7 nAchR in groups SEV, PNU and MLA was significantly lower than that in air/O2 group (P < 0.05); AChE in groups PNU and MLA was significantly lower than that in air/O2 group (P < 0.05); ChaT in groups SEV, PNU and MLA was significantly lower than that in air/O2 group (P < 0.05). One week after anesthesia recovery, α7 nAchR in blank group and groups SEV and PNU was significantly higher than that in air/O2 group (P < 0.05), α7 nAchR in group MLA was significantly lower than that in air/O2 group (P < 0.05); AChE in blank group and and group PNU was significantly higher than that in air/O2 group (P < 0.05), ChaT in blank group was significantly higher than that in air/O2 group (P < 0.05), ChaT in group SEV was significantly lower than that in air/O2 group (P < 0.05). Four weeks after anesthesia awake, AChE in each group was not statistically significant; α7 nAchR in group SEV was significantly higher than that in blank group (P < 0.05), α7 nAchR in group PNU and MLA was significantly lower than that in blank group (P < 0.05); ChaT in blank group and group PNU was significantly lower than that in air/O2 group (P < 0.05), ChaT in group MLA was significantly higher than that in air/O2 group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Sevoflurane inhalation can inhibit ChaT, α7 nAChR, which had no direct effect on AChE; α7 nAChR agonist can effectively help α7 nAChR and ChaT inhibition inhaled sevoflurane, and reached a peak at about 1 week; oxygen concentration around 60% can increase α7 nAChR expression quantity, to a certain extent against sevoflurane inhibition.
