Research Abstract |
Intravenous anesthetics have been reported to modulate cytokine responses, but the mechanism of action on inflammatory response remains unclear. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the mechanism of intravenous anesthetic's action on cytokine and inflammatory responses. We evaluated the effects of midazolam, a intravenous anesthetic, on LPS-induced cytokine (interleukin-6) response in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells, focusing on a cyclooxygenase (COX) pathway. In results, the effect of midazolam was inhibited by indomethacin, a non-selective COX inhibitor, and NS-398, a COX-2 selective inhibitor, but not by SC-560, a COX-1 selective inhibitor. Midazolam did not alter any prostaglandins (prostaglandin E2, prostaglandin D2, and prostaglandin F2) production, although GW9662, an antagonist of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ), masked the effect of midazolam. The results suggest that midazolam modulates the LPS-induced cytokine response via a COX-2 pathway around PPARγ. Furthermore, we evaluated the inhibitory effect of midazolam and dexmedetomidine, another intravenous anesthetic, on carrageenin-induced inflammatory edema at injection site in the mouse paw in vivo. The results suggest that they have an anti-inflammatory potency in vivo.
