ANGPTL2 Deletion Attenuates Neuroinflammation and Cognitive Dysfunction Induced by Isoflurane in Aged Mice through Modulating MAPK Pathway

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a well-known complication after surgery with cognitive impairments. Angiopoietin-like protein 2 (ANGPTL2) has been found to be associated with inflammation. However, the role of ANGPTL2 in inflammation of POCD is unclear. Here, mice were subjected into i...

description Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a well-known complication after surgery with cognitive impairments. Angiopoietin-like protein 2 (ANGPTL2) has been found to be associated with inflammation. However, the role of ANGPTL2 in inflammation of POCD is unclear. Here, mice were subjected into isoflurane anesthesia. It was demonstrated that isoflurane increased ANGPTL2 expression and promoted pathological change in brain tissues. However, downregulation of ANGPTL2 alleviated the pathological change and elevated learning and memory abilities, improving isoflurane-induced cognitive dysfunction in mice. In addition, isoflurane-induced cell apoptosis and inflammation were repressed via ANGPTL2 knockdown in mice. Downregulation of ANGPTL2 was also verified to suppress isoflurane-induced microglial activation, evidenced by a decrease of Iba1 and CD86 expressions and an increase of CD206 expression. Further, the isoflurane-induced MAPK signaling pathway was repressed through downregulation of ANGPTL2 in mice. In conclusion, this study proved that downregulation of ANGPTL2 attenuated isoflurane-induced neuroinflammation and cognitive dysfunction in mice via modulating the MAPK pathway, which provided a new therapeutic target for POCD.
