The chondrotoxicity of local anesthetics has been previously recognized. Recent introduction of a liposomal formulation of bupivacaine has been found to significantly improve postoperative pain control but its effect on chondrocyte viability has yet to be investigated with this new formulation. We sought to assess the in vitro chondrotoxicity of liposomal bupivacaine.
Chondrocytes were isolated from articular cartilage from fresh stifle joints and grown in culture medium. Cultured chondrocyte-derived cells (CDCs) were treated with 0.9% normal saline solution, 0.5%, 0.25%, and 0.13% bupivacaine and ropivacaine, 1.3% liposomal bupivacaine for 1 hour. Following treatment, cells were washed and incubated in media for 23 hours. The CDCs were then harvested and viability was assessed by flow cytometry using SYTOX green dead cell stain.
Treated CDCs demonstrated a dose-response effect for chondrocyte viability when treated with bupivacaine, ropivacaine, and liposomal bupivacaine. Liposomal bupivacaine demonstrated the highest chondrocyte viability following treatment. Ropivacaine demonstrated higher chondrocyte viability than bupivacaine.
Following 1 hour of treatment, liposomal bupivacaine demonstrated the highest chondrocyte viability. Chondrocyte viability was inversely proportional to anesthetic concentration.
局部麻醉药的软骨毒性此前已得到确认。最近发现,布比卡因脂质体剂型的引入显著改善了术后疼痛控制,但其对软骨细胞活力的影响尚未在这种新剂型中进行研究。我们试图评估布比卡因脂质体的体外软骨毒性。
从新鲜膝关节的关节软骨中分离软骨细胞,并在培养基中培养。将培养的软骨细胞衍生细胞(CDC)用0.9%生理盐水溶液、0.5%、0.25%和0.13%的布比卡因和罗哌卡因、1.3%的布比卡因脂质体处理1小时。处理后,洗涤细胞并在培养基中孵育23小时。然后收获CDC,并使用SYTOX绿色死细胞染色通过流式细胞术评估活力。
在用布比卡因、罗哌卡因和布比卡因脂质体处理时,处理后的CDC对软骨细胞活力表现出剂量反应效应。布比卡因脂质体处理后软骨细胞活力最高。罗哌卡因的软骨细胞活力高于布比卡因。
处理1小时后,布比卡因脂质体的软骨细胞活力最高。软骨细胞活力与麻醉剂浓度成反比。
