Pancreatic cancer (PC) is heterogeneous cancer having a high death rate and poor prognosis. The perioperative variables, such as anesthetics, may affect the cancer progression. Ciprofol is an intravenous anesthetic widely used recently. We aimed to explore the influence of ciprofol on PC and investigate its possible pathway. The proliferation, migration and invasion roles and apoptosis of ciprofol in human PC cells were examined using methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide, trans well and flow cytometery analysis. Then the putative targeted genes were examined using RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis. When differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were found, a protein-protein interaction network and pathway analyses were made. Moreover, MMP1 gene expression was confirmed in PC cells using quantitative real-time PCR. PANC-1 cells of PC were significantly suppressed with ciprofol in a dose-dependent and time-dependent way, and 20µg/mL ciprofol significantly suppressed tumor cell aggressiveness. Additionally, the RNA-seq analysis demonstrated that ciprofol controls the expression of 929 DEGs. 5 of 20 hub genes with increased connection were selected. Survival analysis demonstrated that MMP1 may be involved in the carcinogenesis and establishment of PC, reflecting the possible roles associated with ciprofol. Moreover, one target miRNA (hsa-miR-330-5p) of MMP1 was identified.

Ciprofol, a novel γ-aminobutyric acid receptor agonist, outperforms propofol with minimal cardiovascular effects, higher potency, reduced injection pain, and a broader safety margin. Despite these advantages, ciprofol's clinical research is still emerging. This study compares the median effective dose (ED) and adverse reactions of ciprofol and propofol, in conjunction with sufentanil, for suppressing cardiovascular responses during tracheal intubation.

Traditional sedatives like Propofol can lead to adverse effects. This study compares the safety and efficacy of Ciprofol monotherapy versus combined Propofol for painless gastroscopy. Patients underwent painless gastroscopy at our hospital from January 2023 to December 2023 were studied.

Background: Ciprofol, a novel intravenous anesthetic derived from propofol, exhibits high lipophilicity. Its pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics may vary across different body mass indices (BMI) categories, but data on its optimal dosing as well as its safety and efficacy during colonoscopy anesthesia in varying BMI groups are lacking.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ciprofol during anesthesia for painless colonoscopy in patients with varying BMI, and to explore the correlation between BMI and induction dose.

Background: We investigated the consistency and accuracy of the Index of Consciousness (IoC) and the Bispectral Index (BIS) in monitoring the sedative effect of ciprofol during the induction of general anesthesia. There is extensive literature that reports good consistency and correlations between the IoC1 and the BIS in reflecting the sedation levels induced by propofol and sevoflurane but not by ciprofol.

Objective: The aim was to compare the consistency and accuracy of the IoC and BIS in monitoring the sedative effect of ciprofol during the induction of general anesthesia.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines the necessary dose of remifentanil to suppress cough during fiberoptic bronchoscopy under ciprofol sedation in elderly patients.
  • The research involved 39 patients, revealing that males require a higher effective concentration (3.25 ng/mL) of remifentanil compared to females (2.25 ng/mL) to manage responses during the procedure.
  • Overall, findings suggest gender differences in medication dosage requirements for effective cough suppression during bronchoscopy while maintaining normal breathing.
