ABSTRACT
Central nervous system oxygen toxicity (CNS-OT) is a complication of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment, with limited prevention and treatment options available. In this study, we aimed to explore the effect of polyethylene glycol 300 (PEG300) on CNS-OT and underlying mechanisms. Motor and cognitive functions of mice in normobaric conditions were evaluated by Morris water maze, passive active avoidance, and rotarod tests. HBO was applied at 6 atmospheres absolute (ATA) for 30 min after drug administration. The latency period of convulsion in mice was recorded, and hippocampal tissues were extracted for biochemical experiments. Our experimental results showed that PEG300 extended the convulsion latencies in CNS-OT mice, reduced oxidative stress and inflammation levels in hippocampal tissues. Furthermore, PEG300 preserved mitochondrial integrity and maintained mitochondrial membrane potential in hippocampal tissue by upregulating Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Gamma Coactivator 1-alpha (PGC-1α). This protective effect was enhanced following the administration of ZLN005, an agonist of PGC-1a. Hence, our study suggests that PEG300 might exert protective effects by upregulating PGC-1α expression and preserving mitochondrial health, offering promising prospects for CNS-OT treatment.
