Propofol Ameliorates Ischemic Brain Injury by Blocking Toll-like Receptor 4-dependent Pathway and Suppressing Consequent Inflammatory Cytokine Production

Abstract: BackgroundIschemic stroke is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Accumulated evidence suggests that the consequent excessive inflammation plays detrimental roles in the pathogenesis of secondary injury after cerebral infarction and exacerbates the brain tissue damage. Although regulation of the inflammation would be the potential strategy for the novel treatment option, effective methods that control the cerebral inflammation have not yet been established. Recent studies have sugges… Show more

“…In one study, Propofol, a sedative drug, could exert anti-inflammatory properties via the downregulation of TLRs and reduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines [ 178 , 179 ]. The application of propofol significantly reduced infarct volume and pro-inflammatory cytokines in a mouse model of AIS [ 180 ]. As a result, the prophylactic application of TLR4 modulators has been suggested as a novel approach for the prevention of neuroinflammation and AIS tissue injury [ 131 , 181 ].…”
