Anesthetic neurotoxicity represents a significant challenge in clinical practice, prompting extensive research into how general anesthetics impact neuronal health. While indispensable for surgery, agents like desflurane, propofol, and ketamine have been linked to neuronal cell death and impaired synaptic function, particularly through their effects on cellular energetics. A critical aspect of this involves mitochondrial health, as these organelles are central to neuronal viability and synaptic activity. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. supports the research and development of compounds that address this vital area of concern.

The integrity of mitochondrial networks is crucial for proper neuronal development and function. However, various anesthetic agents can induce mitochondrial fragmentation, a process that precedes dysfunction and cell death. This leads to reduced ATP production and increased reactive oxygen species (ROS), contributing to the overall neurotoxic burden. Understanding the precise mechanisms of mitochondrial fragmentation prevention anesthetics is therefore paramount for designing safer pharmacological interventions. The goal is to identify and develop agents that can maintain mitochondrial integrity even in the presence of anesthetic exposure.

Promising breakthroughs have emerged with the discovery of compounds like the synthetic P110 peptide. This peptide specifically targets and inhibits Drp1/Fis1-mediated mitochondrial fission, a key pathway involved in pathological mitochondrial fragmentation. Preclinical studies have demonstrated that P110 can effectively reverse anesthetic-induced mitochondrial damage, preserve neuronal cell viability, and restore normal neurite outgrowth and synaptic assembly. This research underscores that preserving mitochondrial networks is a viable and powerful strategy for neuroprotection against the adverse effects of anesthetics, offering novel avenues for therapeutic development.
