Abstract

Purpose

The aim of the current study was to investigate effects of CO2 atmosphere, mimicking conditions of the pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopy, on epigenetic conditions of Rassf1A and DCR2 oncogenes in neuroblastoma cells.

Methods

SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells were exposed to 100% CO2 for 4 h. Cells were lysed 4, 8 and 168 h after exposure. After methylation analysis of Rassf1A and DCR2 with polymerase chain reaction, results were compared to those of physiologically incubated neuroblastoma cells.

Results

No significant changes were found after exposure to carbon dioxide compared to the control. Values of methylated Rassf1A were 12.6 ± 1.1 versus 13.2 ± 1.4 ng/μl in the controls, respectively (4 h after incubation), 12.6 ± 1.2 versus 15.1 ± 0.9 ng/μl (8 h) and 14.2 ± 1.5 versus 11.7 ± 1.3 ng/μl (168 h). DCR2 showed values of 4.6 ± 0.5 versus 3.7 ± 0.5 ng/μl (4 h), 3.8 ± 0.5 versus 4.1 ± 0.4 ng/μl (8 h) and 3.6 ± 0.4 versus 3.8 ± 0.5 ng/μl (168 h).

Conclusion

Exposure of neuroblastoma cells to 100% CO2 does not alter methylation of two prognostic relevant index genes. It seems therefore unlikely that effects on methylation levels within CO2 pneumoperitoneum lead to epigenetic changes in neuroblastoma.
