Rapamycin improves sevoflurane-induced cognitive dysfunction in aged rats by mediating autophagy through the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway. (A) Western blot assays were performed to determine the protein expression levels of LC3II/I, Beclin1 and p62 proteins. (B) ELISA was performed to determine the expression levels of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and IL-10. (C) An MWM experiment was conducted to determine the effects of the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway on learning and memory abilities. *P<0.05 vs. the RAP group. TLR4, toll-like receptor 4; MyD88, myeloid differentiation primary response 88; NF-κB, nuclear factor-κB; MWM, Morris water maze; TLR, TLR4 inhibitor.
