N- methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors are important components of pain processing. Ketamine and Mg2+ block NMDA might therefore be useful analgesics, combinations ketamine provide more effective analgesia. We investigated their interactions at receptors. Xenopus oocytes, expressing NR1/NR2A or NR1/NR2B glutamate receptors, were studied. The effects Mg2+, racemic its isomers, the combination S(+)-ketamine on signaling determined. alone inhibited noncompetitively (half-maximal inhibitory...

Numerous studies have demonstrated that general anesthetics might damage the nervous system, thus, effect of on developing brain has attracted much attention. Dexmedetomidine (Dex) exhibits a certain neuroprotective effect, but mechanism is obscure. In our study, pregnant rats gestational day 20 (G20) were exposed to 3% sevoflurane for 2 h or 4 h, and neuronal apoptosis in hippocampal CA1 region offspring was detected by quantification TUNEL positive cells cleaved-caspase3 (cl-caspase3)....

Background: Considerable evidences support the finding that anesthesia reagent isoflurane increases neuronal cell death in young rats. Recent studies have shown dexmedetomidine can reduce isoflurane-induced injury, but mechanism remains unclear. We investigated whether cause neurotoxicity to central nervous system by regulating N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) and excitatory amino acid transporter1 (EAAT1) Furthermore, we examined if could decrease neurotoxicity. Methods: Neonatal rats...

Many studies have reported that sevoflurane can increase neuronal apoptosis and result in cognitive deficits rodents. Although neurotoxicity may be associated with mitochondrial dysfunction oxidative stress, the exact mechanism remains unclear. In order to evaluate potential treatment therapies, we studied effects of hemin on neonatal rat exposure.Postnatal day (P) seven rats were assigned randomly four groups; (1) group C: non-anesthesia, (2) H: intraperitoneal (50 mg kg-1) days 5 6, (3) S:...

To investigate the mechanism dexmedetomidine in relieving neurotoxicity of a developing brain induced by sevoflurane. Sprague-Dawley rats, 6 days old, were randomly divided into three groups. Rats control group inhaled with air after injection normal saline; rats sevoflurane injected saline and 3% for 2 h consecutive day; intraperitoneal 25 μ g/kg. WB results showed that mBDNF, pTrkB/TrkB, CREB significantly decreased hippocampus group, which are upregulated group. In proBDNF, P75NRT, RhoA...
