| Abstract | The increased intracranial pressure caused by brain edema following traumatic brain injury (TBI) always leads to poor patient prognosis. Aquaporin-4 (AQP-4) plays an important role in edema formation and resolution, which may provide a novel therapeutic target for edema treatment. In this present study, we found that propofol treatment, within a short time, after TBI significantly reduced brain edema in a controlled cortical injury rat model and suppressed in vivo expression of AQP-4. The ameliorating effect of propofol was associated with attenuated expression of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). In addition, the regulatory effect of propofol on AQP-4 expression was investigated in cultured astrocytes. Results showed that propofol could block the stimulatory effect of IL-1β and TNF-α on AQP-4 expression in cultured astrocytes. We also found that both NFκB and p38/MAPK pathways were involved in IL-1β and TNF-α-induced AQP-4 expression and that propofol functions as a dual inhibitor of NFκB and p38/MAPK pathways. In conclusion, treatment with propofol, within a short time, after TBI attenuates cerebral edema and reduces the expression of AQP-4. Propofol modulates acute AQP-4 expression by attenuating IL-1β and TNF-α expression and inhibiting IL-1β and TNF-α induced AQP-4 expression. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
