Neuroinflammation plays an important pathological role in experimental surgical brain injury (SBI). Apoptotic associated with phosphatidylserine (PS) externalization promotes anti-inflammatory mediator TGF-1 release. In the present study, we investigated the anti-neuroinflammation effect of PS liposome or isoflurane pretreatment via PS/CD36/TGF-1 signaling in a rat model of SBI. A total of 120 male Sprague-Dawley rats (weighing 280-330 gms) were used. SBI was induced by partial right frontal lobe corticotomy. Intranasal PS liposome or isoflurane inhalation was administered prior to SBI induction. CD36 small interfering RNA (siRNA) was administered intracerebroventricularly. Recombinant Annexin V protein (rAnnexin V) was delivered intranasally. Post-SBI assessments included neurological tests, brain water content, Western blot, and immunohistochemistry. Endogenous CD36 protein levels but not TGF-1 was significantly increased within peri-resection brain tissues over 72 h after SBI. SBI rats were associated with increased brain water content surrounding corticotomy and neurological deficits. PS liposome pretreatment significantly reduced brain water content and improved some neurological deficits at 24 hours and 72 hours after SBI. PS liposome increased CD36 and TGF-1 protein levels, but decreased IL-1 and TNF protein levels in peri-resection brain tissues at 24 hours after SBI. CD36 siRNA or rAnnexin V partially countered the protective effect of PS liposome. Isoflurane pretreatment produced similar antineuroinflammation and neurological benefits in SBI rats partially by upregulating CD36/Lyn/TGF-1 signaling. Collectively, our findings suggest that the activation of PS/CD36/TGF-1 pathway by PS liposome or isoflurane prior to SBI could attenuate neuroinflammation and improve neurological outcomes in rats. PS liposome or isoflurane pretreatment may serve as an effective preventive strategy to minimize the brain injury caused by neurosurgical procedures in patients.

Objective: This study aimed to determine whether an infiltrative block with liposomal bupivacaine was associated with less rescue analgesia administration and lower pain scores than a bupivacaine splash block after ovariohysterectomy in dogs.
Animals: Eligible dogs included those that were spayed as part of a veterinary teaching laboratory. Dogs were up to 7 years old and otherwise healthy.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the volatile anesthetic agents isoflurane and sevoflurane, at clinically relevant concentrations, on the fluidity of lipid membranes and permeability of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). We analyzed the in vitro effects of isoflurane or ketamine using erythrocyte ghosts (sodium fluorescein permeability), monolayers of brain microvascular endothelial cells ([C]sucrose and fluorescein permeability), or liposomes (fluorescence anisotropy). Additionally, we determined the effects of 30-minute exposure of mice to isoflurane on the brain tight junction proteins.

There is an on-going debate whether anesthetic drugs, such as isoflurane, can cause meaningful structural changes in cell membranes at clinical concentrations. In this study, the effects of isoflurane on lipid membrane fluidity were investigated using fluorescence anisotropy and spectroscopy. In order to get a complete picture, four very different membrane systems (erythrocyte ghosts, a 5-lipid mixture that mimics brain endothelial cell membrane, POPC/Chol, and pure DPPC) were selected for the study.

The effect of inhalation anesthetics (enflurane, isoflurane, sevoflurane or halothane) on the lipid chain-melting phase transition of negatively charged phospholipid membranes was studied using near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy supported by Principal Component Analysis (PCA). NIR spectra of anesthetics-mixed dipalmitoylphosphatidylglycerol (DPPG) membranes were recorded in a range of the first overtone of the symmetric and antisymmetric stretching vibrations of CH groups of lipid aliphatic chains as a function of increasing temperature. Anesthetic-dependent changes in the trans to gauche conformers ratio of CH groups in the hydrocarbon lipid chains were characterized in detail and compared with the zwitterionic lipid membranes, which were built of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) molecules.
