The study is to investigate the potential protective effect of sevoflurane on adriamycin induced myocyte injury. We prepared primary myocyte culture from neonatal rats and subjected the cells to adriamycin treatment. We found that adriamycin treatment induced cell apoptosis, decreased cell vitality, which could be reversed with sevoflurane exposure after the drug treatment, potentially through the regulation of Bcl-2 anti-apoptotic pathway. The study suggested the potential roles of sevoflurane in clinical management of patients after adriamycin chemotherapy.
