Abstract：
:The aim of this study was to investigate the in vivo and in vitro effects of miR-665 on sevoflurane anesthesia-induced cognitive dysfunction. SH-SY5Y cells and male SD rats were treated with sevoflurane to simulate anesthesia-induced cognitive dysfunction. The cells and rats both were transfected with a miR-665 mimic, inhibitor, scramble, IGF-2 siRNA, or treated with P13K/Akt inhibitor LY294002. The cell apoptosis, autophagy, growth related proteins, and mRNA levels were measured using different methods. The motor performance was assessed using the Morris water maze (MWM) test. Finally, the differences were statistically analyzed. It was noted that sevoflurane-induced miR-665 downregulation accompanied with the upregulation of IGF-2 in vivo and motor deficits in vitro. Moreover, sevoflurane also induced hippocampal neuroapoptosis; reduced regular autophagy; increased Bax/Bcl-2 ratio; decreased the expression of Beclin 1, PSD95, and p-CREB; and activated P13K/Akt signaling pathway. However, the treatment by miR-665 mimics significantly reversed all the molecular changes and improved motor performance. Our data demonstrate the neuroprotective effect of miR-665 against sevoflurane anesthesia-induced cognitive impairment. This study suggests that miR-665 might be explored as a potential target of therapy for sevoflurane-induced cognitive impairment.
