Transcriptional effects of a 6h treatment with 2% isoflurane in the anterior cingulate cortex of the 24h old neonatal piglet brain


ABSTRACT: Exposure of the developing brain to general anesthesia during early infancy may adversely affect its neural and cognitive development. In a range of animal species early developmental exposure to general anaesthesia without surgery, induces an increase in brain cell death, reductions in neuro and synapto-genesis, a disruption to the expression of cognitively salient genes and deficits in cognitive function that persist throughout life. We examined the effects of the anesthetic isoflurane (2% concentration for 6h) without surgery on gene expression in the anterior cingulate cortex of the neonatal male piglet brain. The developing piglet brain demonstrates remarkable neurodevelopmental similarities to that seen in the human infant, which has led to extensive use as models of perinatal neural injury. Isoflurane induced significant disruption to the expression of 79 gene transcripts, of these 26 are important for the control of transcription and 23 are important for the mediation of neural plasticity, memory formation and recall. Overall this data may suggest novel additional mechanisms by which isoflurane may induce adverse neural and cognitive development by disrupting the expression of genes mediating activity dependent development of neural circuits, the predictive adaptive responses of the brain, memory formation and recall.
