Modulation of gene expression and influence of gene polymorphisms related to genotoxicity and redox status on occupational exposure to inhaled anesthetics. Int J Hyg Environ Health 2024; 256:114307. [PMID: 38065035 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijheh.2023.114307] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2022] [Revised: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 11/30/2023] [Indexed: 12/19/2023]
Abstract
The extensive use of inhalational anesthetics contributes to both indoor and outdoor (environmental) pollution. The influence of genetic susceptibility on DNA damage and oxidative stress and the possible modulation of gene expression have not yet been investigated upon occupational exposure to waste anesthetic gases (WAGs). This study assessed 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1 (OGG1) and superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) gene expression, which are related to oxidized DNA repair and antioxidant capacity, respectively, and the influence of their polymorphisms (OGG1 rs1052133 and SOD2 rs4880) in 100 professionals highly exposed to WAGs and 93 unexposed volunteers (control group). Additionally, X-ray repair cross complementing 1 (XRCC1 rs25487 and rs1799782) and ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM rs600931) gene polymorphisms as well as genetic instability (micronucleus-MN and nuclear bud-NBUD) and oxidative stress (malondialdehyde-MDA and ferric reducing antioxidant power-FRAP) biomarkers were assessed in the groups (control and exposed) and in the subgroups of the exposed group according to job occupation (anesthesiologists versus surgeons/technicians). Except for the ATM TT controls (associated with increased FRAP), there were no influences of OGG1, XRCC1, ATM, and SOD2 polymorphisms on MN, NBUD, MDA, and FRAP values in exposed or control subjects. No significant difference in the expression of either gene evaluated (OGG1 and SOD2) was found between the exposed and control groups. Increased OGG1 expression was observed among OGG1 -/Cys individuals only in the control group. Among the exposed group, anesthesiologists had a greater duration of WAG exposure (both h/week and years) than surgeons/technicians, which was associated with increased MDA and decreased antioxidant capacity (FRAP) and SOD2 expression (redox status). Higher expression of OGG1 was found in -/Cys surgeons/technicians than in anesthesiologists with the same genotype. Increased antioxidant capacity was noted in the surgeons/technicians carrying the ATM T allele and in those carrying XRCC1 -/Gln. Increased MN was influenced by OGG1 -/Cys in surgeons/technicians. Anesthesiologists with ATM CC exhibited increased MN, and those carrying the C allele (CC/CT genotype) exhibited increased NBUD. SOD2 polymorphism did not seem to be relevant for WAG exposure. These findings contribute to advancing the knowledge on genetic susceptibility/gene expression/genetic instability/oxidative stress, including differences in job occupation considering the workload, in response to occupational exposure to WAGs.

CABG Patients Develop Global DNA Hypermethylation, That Negatively Affect the Mitochondrial Function and Promote Post-Surgical Cognitive Decline: A Proof of Concept in Small Cohort. J Clin Med 2023; 12:4146. [PMID: 37373839 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12124146] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2023] [Revised: 06/01/2023] [Accepted: 06/13/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Global DNA hypermethylation and mitochondrial dysfunction are reported to be associated with the development of mild cognitive decline (MCI). The present study aims to generate preliminary data that connect the above association with post-surgical coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) cognitive decline in patients. Data were collected from 70 CABG patients and 25 age-matched controls. Cognitive function was assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) test on day 1 (before surgery) and on the day of discharge. Similarly, blood was collected before and one day after the CABG procedure for mitochondrial functional analysis and expression of DNA methylation genes. Test analysis score suggested 31 (44%) patients had MCI before discharge. These patients showed a significant decrease in complex I activity and an increase in malondialdehyde levels (p < 0.001) from the control blood samples. Post-surgical samples showed a significant reduction in blood MT-ND1 mRNA expression from control and from pre-surgical samples (p < 0.005), along with elevated DNMT1 gene expression (p < 0.047), with an insignificant increase in TET1 and TET3 gene expression. Correlation analysis showed a significant positive relation between cognitive decline and elevated blood DNMT1 and declined blood complex I activity, signifying that cognitive decline experienced by post-surgical CABG patients is associated with increased DNMT1 expression and declined complex I activity. Based on the data, we conclude that both DNA hypermethylation and mitochondrial dysfunction are associated with post-CABG MCI, where the former is negatively correlated, and the latter is positively correlated with post-surgical MCI in CABG cases. Additionally, a multimarker approach that comprises MOCA, DNA methylation, DNMT, and NQR activities can be utilized to stratify the population that is sensitive to developing post-CABG MCI.

Abstract
Evaluation of the possible toxic effects of occupational exposure to anesthetics is of great importance, and the literature is limited in assessing the possible association between occupational exposure to anesthetics and oxidative stress and genetic damage. To contribute to the gap of knowledge in relation to cause-effect, this cohort study was the first to monitor exposure assessment and to evaluate oxidative stress, DNA damage, and gene expression (OGG1, NRF2, HO-1, and TP53) in young adult physicians occupationally exposed to the most modern halogenated anesthetics (currently the commonly used inhalational anesthetics worldwide) in addition to nitrous oxide gas during the medical residency period. Therefore, the physicians were evaluated before the beginning of the medical residency (before the exposure to anesthetics-baseline), during (1 1/2 year) and at the end (2 1/2 years) of the medical residency. Anesthetic air monitoring was performed in operating rooms without adequate ventilation/scavenging systems, and biological samples were analyzed for lipid peroxidation, protein carbonyl content, primary and oxidative DNA damage, antioxidant enzymes and plasma antioxidant capacity, and expression of some key genes. The results showed induction of lipid peroxidation, DNA damage, glutathione peroxidase activity, and NRF2 and OGG1 expression up to the end of medical residency. Plasma antioxidant capacity progressively increased throughout medical residency; oxidative DNA damage levels started to increase during medical residency and were higher at the end of residency than at baseline. Protein carbonyls increased during but not at the end of medical residency compared to baseline. The antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase activity remained lower than baseline during and at the end of medical residency, and HO-1 (related to antioxidant defense) expression was downregulated at the end of medical residency. Additionally, anesthetic concentrations were above international recommendations. In conclusion, high concentrations of anesthetic in the workplace induce oxidative stress, gene expression modulation, and genotoxicity in physicians during their specialization period.

Abstract
This study assessed, for the first time, the expression of the genes hOGG1, TP53, and IL-6 in leukocytes by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction in surgical patients before (baseline), during (2 h of anesthesia) and 1 day after sevoflurane anesthesia. Additionally, DNA damage was detected by the comet assay, serum interleukin (IL)-6 was detected by flow cytometry, and differential leukocyte counting was also performed. TP53 and hOGG1 expression was downregulated on the day after anesthesia compared to before anesthesia. However, IL-6 expression did not change, and no DNA damage induction was observed during or after anesthesia. At the systemic level, mild neutrophilia and an increase in IL-6 levels occurred after anesthesia. Our findings suggest that sevoflurane anesthesia downregulates gene expression (hOGG1 and TP53) and contributes to an inflammatory status (increased systemic IL-6 and mild neutrophilia) but is not associated with DNA damage in patients without comorbidities who undergo minor elective surgery.

Epigenetic Mechanisms of Postoperative Cognitive Impairment Induced by Anesthesia and Neuroinflammation. Cells 2022; 11:cells11192954.

Abstract
Cognitive impairment after surgery is a common problem, affects mainly the elderly, and can be divided into postoperative delirium and postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Both phenomena are accompanied by neuroinflammation; however, the precise molecular mechanisms underlying cognitive impairment after anesthesia are not yet fully understood. Anesthesiological drugs can have a longer-term influence on protein transcription, thus, epigenetics is a possible mechanism that impacts on cognitive function. Epigenetic mechanisms may be responsible for long-lasting effects and may implicate novel therapeutic approaches. Hence, we here summarize the existing literature connecting postoperative cognitive impairment to anesthesia. It becomes clear that anesthetics alter the expression of DNA and histone modifying enzymes, which, in turn, affect epigenetic markers, such as methylation, histone acetylation and histone methylation on inflammatory genes (e.g., TNF-alpha, IL-6 or IL1 beta) and genes which are responsible for neuronal development (such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor). Neuroinflammation is generally increased after anesthesia and neuronal growth decreased. All these changes can induce cognitive impairment. The inhibition of histone deacetylase especially alleviates cognitive impairment after surgery and might be a novel therapeutic option for treatment. However, further research with human subjects is necessary because most findings are from animal models.

Abstract
Considering the importance and lack of data of toxicogenomic approaches on occupational exposure to anesthetics, we evaluated possible associations between waste anesthetic gases (WAGs) exposure and biological effects including oxidative stress, DNA damage, inflammation, and transcriptional modulation. The exposed group was constituted by anesthesia providers who were mainly exposed to the anesthetics sevoflurane and isoflurane (10 ppm) and to a lesser degree to nitrous oxide (150 ppm), and the control group was constituted by physicians who had no exposure to WAGs. The oxidative stress markers included oxidized DNA bases (comet assay), malondialdehyde (high-performance liquid chromatography [HPLC]), nitric oxide metabolites (ozone-chemiluminescence), and antioxidative markers, including individual antioxidants (HPLC) and antioxidant defense marker (ferric reducing antioxidant power by spectrophotometry). The inflammatory markers included high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (chemiluminescent immunoassay) and the proinflammatory interleukins IL-6, IL-8 and IL-17A (flow cytometry). Telomere length and gene expression related to DNA repair (hOGG1 and XRCC1), antioxidant defense (NRF2) and inflammation (IL6, IL8 and IL17A) were evaluated by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. No significant differences (p > .0025) between the groups were observed for any parameter evaluated. Thus, under the conditions of the study, the findings suggest that occupational exposure to WAGs is not associated with oxidative stress or inflammation when evaluated in serum/plasma, with DNA damage evaluated in lymphocytes and leucocytes or with molecular modulation assessed in peripheral blood cells in university anesthesia providers. However, it is prudent to reduce WAGs exposure and to increase biomonitoring of all occupationally exposed professionals.

Abstract
There is growing interest in assessing possible immunotoxicological effects in anesthetized patients. There are controversial findings concerning the effect of nitrous oxide (N2O) anesthetic gas effect on inflammatory response. We tested the hypothesis that N2O associated with desflurane (inhalational anesthetic) was likely to worsen neuro-immune-endocrine effects when compared with desflurane alone in this randomized trial. The primary endpoint of this study was to evaluate the systemic proinflammatory interleukin (IL)-6, and the secondary endpoints included other systemic (IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-8, IL-10, IL-17A and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein - hs-CRP) and genetic inflammatory markers (NF-kB, IL-6 and COX-2) as well as hormones (adrenocorticotropic hormone, cortisol and prolactin) comparing patients undergoing minor surgery with or without N2O-desflurane. As a second aim, we assessed whether there were changes in the neuro-immune-endocrine profiles within each group. Blood samples were collected before anesthesia, 90 min after anesthesia induction, and the day after surgery. We assessed serum cytokines using a cytometric bead array and hs-CRP by chemiluminescent immunoassay. Expression of three proinflammatory transcripts was assessed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and neuroendocrine hormones were detected by chemiluminescent microparticle immunoenzymatic assay. There were no significant between-group differences for any analyzed biomarkers. However, there was a significant increase in: (a) systemic IL-6 and hs-CRP values one day after surgery in both groups and (b) prolactin levels in the intraoperative period compared to baseline and postoperative period levels for both groups. In conclusion, N2O does not impair the inflammatory profile and neuroendocrine response compared to patients who receive only desflurane anesthesia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Post-operative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a decline of cognitive status that commonly occurs after surgery in elderly patients. Whether DNA methylation is associated with the development of POCD remains unclear. METHODS Subjects (N = 124) older than 65 years-of-age undergoing hip replacement surgery were enrolled. A battery of neuropsychiatric tests was used to examine the perioperative cognitive function of the patients. Early POCD was analyzed using the reliable change index (RCI), and subjects were diagnosed with POCD if RCI < -1.96. Peripheral leukocyte DNA was isolated, and DNA methylation was measured via 5-methylcytosine (mC) using Elisa. RESULTS Twenty-four patients (19.4%) developed early POCD. There was no difference in baseline 5-mC levels by POCD status. The 5-mC levels significantly decreased on day 7 after surgery in patients who developed early POCD (P = .004), but did not change in non-POCD patients. Moreover, post-operative 5-mC levels were significantly lower in POCD patients than those in non-POCD patients (P = .003). Bivariate logistic models adjusted for age, gender, BMI, duration of anesthesia, and education level clearly demonstrated an independent association between post-operative 5-mC level and early POCD. CONCLUSIONS Post-operative global hypomethylation of leukocyte DNA was associated with the development of early POCD. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrial, NCT02965235.
