Abstract

Anesthetic agents are often used in surgical procedures to relieve pain in patients with traumatic injuries. Several anesthetic agents can cause immunosuppression by suppressing the secretion of immune factors such as cytokines. However, the effects of different anesthetic agents on inflammation are not completely understood. In the present study, three cell lines, Caco‑2, HK‑2 and HepG2, were treated with five anesthetic agents, including sodium barbiturate, midazolam, etomidate, ketamine and propofol, to investigate the effects of different anesthetic agents on inflammation in in vitro models. The expression levels of inflammatory genes, including NF‑κB and its downstream cytokines, were detected via reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR. The results indicated that anesthetic agents, including sodium barbiturate, ketamine and propofol, but not midazolam and etomidate, exerted significant inhibitory effects on NF‑κB expression in the three different cell lines. Sodium barbiturate, ketamine and propofol also decreased the expression levels of the NF‑κB downstream cytokines, including IL‑1β and IL‑18. Moreover, sodium barbiturate, ketamine and propofol reduced the effect of TNF‑α on inflammatory activity in the three cell lines. The results of the present study may provide novel insight into the effects of anesthetic agents on inflammation and may aid with selecting the most appropriate anesthetic agent in surgical procedures.
