Popis: | With the speedy technological advances during the past few decades, human exposure to the electromagnetic field (EMF) has become increasingly common. Exposure to EMF may induce neural injuries and dysfunction of various organs, likely involving neuroinflammation and activation of microglial cells. Isoflurane preconditioning (IP) is shown to provide neuroprotection in various neurological diseases by inhibiting excessive neuroinflammatory responses. Brain samples harvested from rats exposed to electromagnetic pulse (EMP) with or without IP were subjected to qPCR, Western blot assay, and immunohistochemistry to determine the expression of pro-inflammatory/anti-inflammatory microglia markers and a variety of pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators. Suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1) siRNA was used in cultured N9 microglia cells to examine the roles of SOCS1 in the effect of IP. In both in vivo and in vitro experiments, EMP-exposed microglia were predominantly pro-inflammatory microglia, accompanied by increased expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, and activation of TLR4 pathway, leading to neuronal death. IP reversed the changes induced by EMP and switched the activated microglia to an anti-inflammatory phenotype. SOCS1 siRNA abolished the beneficial effects of IP. IP ameliorates EMP-induced neural injuries by shifting microglia polarization from pro-inflammatory to anti-inflammatory phenotype via upregulation of SOCS1. |
