Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the relationship between prefrontal cortex and propofol-induced cognitive dysfunction in rats. Methods SPF healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 300-350 g, aged 16 weeks, were used in this study. Thirty rats in which catheters were successfully implanted into the prefrontal lobe were divided into 2 groups ( n=15 each ) using a random number table method: control group (group C) and propofol group (group P). In group P, 50μmol/L propofol 0. 5μl was microinjected into the prefrontal cortex at day 7 after operation, and the equal volume of normal saline was given instead in group C. T-maze test and open field test were performed at 15 min after administration. Results Com-pared with group C, the correct rate of selection in T-maze was significantly decreased ( P<0. 05) , and no significant change was found in the total locomotor or number of rearing in open field test in group P ( P>0. 05) . Conclusion Prefrontal cortex may be involved in propofol-induced cognitive dysfunction in rats.
