Representative Western blots (A) and quantitative comparison of protein levels for pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β (B), TNF-α (C), and IL-6 (D) in the hippocampus in type 2 diabetic Goto–Kakizaki (GK) rats and non-diabetic Wistar rats 7 days and 5 months after sevoflurane (SEV) or sham (control, CON) exposure. The levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the hippocampus were higher in GK + CON rats than those in Wistar + CON rats at both time points and were further increased in GK + SEV rats. Data are presented as mean ± SE (n = 6 for each group). P < 0.05 vs. respective Wistar rats at the same time point; P < 0.05 vs. GK + CON rats at the same time point.
