Abstract

Background/Aim: For patients undergoing cancer surgery, the risk for cancer progression is enhanced during the perioperative period. To what extent the type of anesthetic can affect the metastatic process and finally the outcome of patients with cancer is under debate. For this reason, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the volatile anesthetics sevoflurane and desflurane on colon cancer cells in vitro. Materials and Methods: SW480 colon carcinoma cells were exposed for 3 or 6 h to sevoflurane (1 or 2.5 vol%) or desflurane (6 or 12 vol%). Cell cycle distribution was analyzed by flow cytometry after a 24-72 h recovery and apoptosis was detected by annexin V staining after a 0-48 h recovery. Viability was tested by measuring ATP content after 0 and 24 h recovery. Results: Treatment with sevoflurane or desflurane caused no or only slight changes in cell-cycle distribution and apoptosis rate. Desflurane at 12vol% significantly reduced cell viability by 17 +/- 25% and 11 +/- 22% after 3 and 6 h incubation and 24 h recovery, respectively, while 2.5 vol% sevoflurane slightly increased viability. Conclusion: At clinically relevant concentrations, sevoflurane and desflurane had only slight effects on SW480 colon cancer cells in vitro.
