Abstract

The potential neurotoxic effects of propofol, an extensively utilized anesthetic, underline the urgency to comprehend its influence on neuronal health. Insights into the role of the RARα-Snhg1-Bdnf network can offer significant advancements in minimizing these effects. The study targets the exploration of the RARα and Snhg1 regulatory network's influence on Bdnf expression in the realm of propofol-induced neurotoxicity. Harnessing the GEO database and utilizing JASPAR and RPISeq for projections, the study embarks on an in-depth analysis employing both in vitro and in vivo models. The findings draw a clear link between propofol-induced neurotoxicity and the amplification of RAR signaling pathways, impacting hippocampal development and apoptosis and leading to increased RARα and Snhg1 and decreased Bdnf. Propofol is inferred to accentuate neurotoxicity by heightening RARα and Snhg1 interactions, culminating in Bdnf suppression.
