Effect of basal forebrain somatostatin and parvalbumin neurons in propofol and isoflurane anesthesia.
CNS Neuroscience & Therapeutics 2021 July
AIMS: The basal forebrain (BF) plays an essential role in wakefulness and cognition. Two subtypes of BF gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) neurons, including somatostatin-expressing (GABASOM ) and parvalbumin-positive (GABAParv ) neurons, function differently in mediating the natural sleep-wake cycle. Since the loss of consciousness induced by general anesthesia and the natural sleep-wake cycle probably share similar mechanisms, it is important to clarify the accurate roles of these neurons in general anesthesia procedure.
METHODS: Based on two transgenic mouse lines expressing SOM-IRES-Cre and PV-IRES-Cre, we used a combination of genetic activation, inactivation, and chronic ablation approaches to further explore the behavioral and electroencephalography (EEG) roles of BFSOM and BFParv neurons in general anesthesia. After a single intravenous injection of propofol and the induction and recovery times of isoflurane anesthesia, the anesthesia time was compared. The changes in cortical EEG under different conditions were also compared.
RESULTS: Activation of BF GABASOM neurons facilitates both the propofol and isoflurane anesthesia, manifesting as a longer anesthesia duration time with propofol anesthesia and a fast induction time and longer recovery time with isoflurane anesthesia. Moreover, BF GABASOM -activated mice displayed a greater suppression of cortical electrical activity during anesthesia, showing an increase in δ power bands or a simultaneous decrease in high-frequency power bands. However, only a limited and nuanced effect on propofol and isoflurane anesthesia was observed with the manipulated BF GABAParv neurons.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggested that BF GABASOM neurons play a critical role in propofol and isoflurane general anesthesia, while BF GABAParv neurons appeared to have little effect.
