Background: Preclinical studies have found differential effects of isoflurane and propofol on the Alzheimer's disease (AD)-associated markers tau, phosphorylated tau (p-tau) and amyloid-beta (A beta). Objective: We asked whether isoflurane and propofol have differential effects on the tau/A beta ratio (the primary outcome), and individual AD biomarkers. We also examined whether genetic/intraoperative factors influenced perioperative changes in AD biomarkers. Methods: Patients undergoing neurosurgical/otolaryngology procedures requiring lumbar cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drain placement were prospectively randomized to receive isoflurane (n = 21) or propofol (n = 18) for anesthetic maintenance. We measured perioperative CSF sample AD markers, performed genotyping assays, and examined intraoperative data from the electronic anesthesia record. A repeated measures ANOVA was used to examine changes in AD markers by anesthetic type over time. Results: The CSF tau/A beta ratio did not differ between isoflurane-versus propofol-treated patients (p = 1.000). CSF tau/A beta ratio and tau levels increased 10 and 24 h after drain placement (p = 2.002x10(-6) and p = 1.985x10(-6), respectively), mean CSF p-tau levels decreased (p = 0.005), and A beta levels did not change (p = 0.152). There was no interaction between anesthetic treatment and time for any of these biomarkers. None of the examined genetic polymorphisms, including ApoE4, were associated with tau increase (n = 9 polymorphisms, p > 0.05 for all associations). Conclusion: Neurosurgery/otolaryngology procedures are associated with an increase in the CSF tau/A beta ratio, and this increase was not influenced by anesthetic type. The increased CSF tau/A beta ratio was largely driven by increases in tau levels. Future work should determine the functional/prognostic significance of these perioperative CSF tau elevations.
