BackgroundNeurotoxicity induced by local anesthetics (LAs) is potentially life threatening, especially for patients with underlying diseases like diabetes. The anesthetic bupivacaine (Bup) has been reported to induce neurotoxicity mediated by reactive oxygen species (ROS), which is aggravated by hyperglycemia. Krüppel-like factor 9 (KLF9), an axon growth-suppressing transcription factor, plays a key role in neuronal maturation and promotes oxidative stress. This study was designed to investigate whether and how KLF9 regulates ROS levels related to LA neurotoxicity under hyperglycemic conditions.MethodsKlf9/GFP ShRNA (LV Sh-Klf9) was used to achieve stableKlf9knockdown in the SH-SY5Y cell line. KLF9-deficient and normal cells were cultured under normal or high-glucose (HG) culture conditions and then exposed to Bup. Cell viability, intracellular and mitochondrial ROS, and mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) were detected to examine the role of KLF9. Thereafter, KLF9-deficient and normal cells were pretreated with small-interfering RNA targeting peroxiredoxin 6 (siRNA-Prdx6) to determine if PRDX6 was the target protein in HG-aggravated Bup neurotoxicity.ResultsThe mRNA and protein levels of KLF9 were increased after Bup and hyperglycemia treatment. In addition, cell survival and mitochondrial function were significantly improved, and ROS production was decreased after Sh-Klf9treatment compared with Sh-Ctrl. Furthermore, the expression of PRDX6 was suppressed by Bup in hyperglycemic cultures and was upregulated in theSh-Klf9group. Moreover, the protection provided by KLF9 deficiency for cell survival, the increase in ROS production in cells and mitochondria, and the disruption of mitochondrial function were abolished byPrdx6knockdown.ConclusionsThe results of this study demonstrated that hyperglycemia aggravated Bup neurotoxicity by upregulating KLF9 expression, which repressed the antioxidant PRDX6 and led to mitochondrial dysfunction, ROS burst, and cell death. Understanding this mechanism may, thus, offer valuable insights for the prevention and treatment of neurotoxicity induced by LAs, especially in diabetic patients.
