Dexmedetomidine attenuates lipopolysaccharide-induced proinflammatory response in primary microglia
Neuroinflammation mediated by microglia has been implicated in delirium. Suppression of microglial activation may therefore contribute to alleviate delirium. It has been reported that dexmedetomidine (DEX) has a potent anti-inflammatory property. In the present study, we investigated the effects of DEX on the production of proinflammatory mediators in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated microglia.
