We hypothesized that preconditioning with a short exposure to isoflurane (ISO) would reduce neurodegeneration induced by prolonged exposure to ISO in neonatal rats, as previously shown in neuronal cell culture. We randomly divided 7-day-old Sprague-Dawley rats into 3 groups: control, 1.5% ISO, and preconditioning (PC) + 1.5% ISO. The control group was exposed to carrier gas (30% oxygen balanced in nitrogen) for 30 min and then carrier gas again for 6 h the following day. The 1.5% ISO group was exposed to carrier gas for 30 min and then 1.5% ISO for 6 h the following day. The PC + 1.5% ISO group was preconditioned with a 30 min 1.5% ISO exposure and then exposed to 1.5% ISO for 6 h the following day. Blood and brain samples were collected 2 h after the exposures for determination of neurodegenerative biomarkers, including caspase-3, S100β, caspase-12, and an autophagy biomarker Beclin-1. Prolonged exposure to ISO significantly increased cleaved caspase-3 expression in the cerebral cortex of 7-day old rats compared to the group preconditioned with ISO and the controls using Western blot assays. However, significant differences were not detected for other markers of neuronal injury. The ISO-mediated increase in cleaved caspase-3 in the postnatal day 7 rat brain is ameliorated by preconditioning with a brief anesthetic exposure, and differences were not detected in other markers of neuronal injury.
