1 ONCOLOGY LETTERS 15: , 2018 Effects of dexmedetomidine on inflmmtory fctors, T lymphocyte subsets nd expression of NF κb in peripherl blood mononucler cells in ptients receiving rdicl surgery of colon crcinom KUN WANG nd CHENGWEN LI Deprtment of Anesthesiology, Jining No. 1 People's Hospitl, Jining, Shndong , P.R. Chin Received December 14, 2017; Accepted Februry 16, 2018 DOI: /ol Abstrct. The effects of dexmedetomidine on inflmmtory fctors, T lymphocyte subsets nd expression of nucler fctor-κb (NF-κB) in peripherl blood mononucler cells in ptients receiving rdicl surgery of colon crcinom were investigted. A totl of 141 ptients receiving rdicl surgery of colon crcinom from Jnury 2014 to April 2017 were divided into two groups rndomly. The ptients in the tretment group were given dexmedetomidine, while the ptients in the control group were treted with sline. Results showed tht there were no significnt differences in preopertive levels of NF-κB, sicam-1 nd IL-8 between the two groups. However, the bove three indexes of the groups were ll significntly incresed t 0.5 nd 24 h fter opertion, nd the results showed tht the control group hd higher degree of increse (P<0.05). It ws lso found tht the chnges in levels of IL-6 nd CRP in ptients were the sme s those of the bove three indexes; in other words, the degree of the increse in the control group ws significntly higher thn tht in the tretment group fter opertion. Moreover, it ws found tht there ws little difference in the preopertive Rmsy score of ptients between the two groups. The scores t 0.5 nd 12 h fter opertion in the tretment group were significntly higher thn those in the control group (P<0.05). It ws lso found tht the intropertive nd postopertive dosges of fentnyl in the tretment group were significntly less thn those in the control group (P<0.05). We cn conclude tht the ppliction of dexmedetomidine during nesthesi in ptients receiving rdicl opertion of colon crcinom hs better clinicl tretment effect, which cn reduce the secretion of inflmmtory Correspondence to: Dr Chengwen Li, Deprtment of Anesthesiology, Jining No. 1 People's Hospitl, 6 Jinkng Rod, Jining, Shndong , P.R.

Introduction Ptients receiving rdicl opertion of colon crcinom need nesthesi during the surgicl tretment (1,2). At present, dexmedetomidine, s new type of drenergic receptor gonist, is incresingly widely used in the field of nesthesi (3-5). The drug hs been commonly used s the preopertive sedtive, regionl nesthesi djuvnt nd generl nesthesi djuvnt (6,7). It is cliniclly found tht the drug lso hs n nti-inflmmtory effect (8-10). Therefore, 141 ptients receiving rdicl opertion of colon crcinom in Jining No. 1 People's Hospitl (Jining, Chin) from Jnury 2014 to April 2017 were selected in this study, nd dexmedetomidine nesthesi ws induced, so s to explore the nti-inflmmtory nd immune effects of the sedtive, nd provide more scientific clinicl bsis. Ptients nd methods Generl dt. A totl of 141 ptients receiving rdicl opertion of colon crcinom in Jining No. 1 People's Hospitl (Shndong, Chin) from Jnury 2014 to April 2017 were collected, including 69 cses in the control group nd 72 cses in the tretment group. There were 33 mles nd 36 femles in the control group, nd 36 mles nd 36 femles in the tretment group. In the control group, they were ged yers with n verge ge of 45.3±5.0 yers, nd in the tretment group, they were ged yers with n verge ge of 42.5±4.3 yers. Ptients in the two groups were ll in I-II of Americn Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) grde. This study ws pproved by the Ethics Committee of Jining No. 1 People's Hospitl. Signed written informed consents were obtined from ll ptients or their gurdins before the study. Exclusion criteri: Ptients with dmge in hert, liver or kidney, or systemic immune system diseses. Methods. Before the opertion, the ptients were fsting for 12 h before nesthesi nd generl nesthesi ws performed before the opertion. The method of nesthesi induction is

During ventiltion, end-tidl prtil pressure of crbon dioxide (PETCO2) ws set t mmhg nd fentnyl ws dministered vi veno-micropump trget control with the infusion rte of µg/(kg min). The tidl volume of the ventiltor ws set t 8-10 ml/kg, with frequency of times/min, nd PETCO2 of mmhg. The infusion rte of fentnyl ws controlled to djust the depth of nesthesi.

Discussion Inflmmtion, s physiologicl disese, often occurs in the body. When inflmmtion occurs in the body, it will led to chnges in blood vessels, cells nd other tissues (11,12). Clinicl studies hve found tht the use of nesthetics in the body cn ct on inflmmtory fctors, such s mononucler mcrophges, nd lso ffect inflmmtory meditors (13,14). The reserch on nti-inflmmtory effect of ll nesthetics is bsed on vriety of inflmmtory fctors. The most widely used inflmmtory fctors re IL-6, TNF-α nd IL-8. IL-6 nd IL-8 re produced by mononucler mcrophges in the body, while TNF-α is secreted by neutrophils. A vriety of inflmmtory fctors cn ffect the neutrophil chemotxis nd induce llergic rections, leding to chemotxis of T cells, which cn promote the immune response in the body to certin extent (15,16). NF-κB is key nucler trnscription fctor in the body nd plys n importnt role in the immune nd inflmmtion processes. When the body is stimulted by inflmmtory fctors, IκB, n inhibitor of NF-κB, will be degrded, leding to over-secretion of NF-κB in the body; the excessive NF-κB will be trnsferred into the nucleus, leding to gene expression (17). ICAM-1 is widely used in ntigen production nd leukocyte infiltrtion process, nd it is widely distributed in lymphocytes. As kind of multifunctionl dhesion molecule, it is lso involved in the process of body immunity. T cell subsets hve been cliniclly proven to be importnt indexes of immune disorders of the body, nd Treg is subset of T cells tht cn inhibit the immune response in cncer ptients. Clinicl studies hve found tht dexmedetomidine cts on the blue plque in brin, which cn reduce norepinephrine secretion, inhibit oxidtive stress, nd inhibit the occurrence of inflmmtion (18-20). In this study the degree of the increse in the inflmmtory fctors t 0.5 nd 24 h fter opertion in the tretment group ws significntly lower thn those in the control group (P<0.05). Ptients in two groups hd the sme fctor levels before opertion, indicting tht the dexmedetomidine nesthesi cn significntly inhibit the secretion of inflmmtory fctors nd inhibit the relese of inflmmtory meditors. Clinicl studies hve found tht when dexmedetomidine tkes effect, the ptient's centrl nervous system receptors will be ffected, nd the norepinephrine will be inhibited, leding to less stress response in ptients nd decresed secretion of ctecholmine in drenergic receptor nd glucocorticoid receptor in ptients, which ultimtely inhibits the production of inflmmtory fctors. In this study, it ws lso found tht the sedtion in the tretment group ws better thn tht in the control group (P<0.05). Dexmedetomidine cn ct on the nerve center of the body to reduce the relese of norepinephrine nd increse the threshold of excitement.

5 ONCOLOGY LETTERS 15: , In conclusion, the ppliction of dexmedetomidine in ptients receiving rdicl opertion of colon crcinom hs better clinicl effect, which cn reduce the production of inflmmtory fctors, decrese the inhibition of T lymphocyte subsets, nd lower the impct on NF-κB in peripherl blood mononucler cells, with higher clinicl therpeutic vlue.
