Distinct effects of general anesthetics on lung metastasis mediated by IL-6/JAK/STAT3 pathway in mouse models

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Metastasis can occur following surgical resection of solid tumors and metastasis is the main cause of cancer death. The role of anesthetics used during surgery in cancer metastasis and the underlying mechanism remains largely unknown.

The effect of lidocaine on apoptotic neurodegeneration in the developing mouse brain [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2014
BackgroundGeneral anesthetics induce neuronal apoptosis in the immature brain. Regional anesthesia using local anesthetics can be an alternative to general anesthesia.

General Anesthetics Activate a Potent Central Pain-Suppression Circuit in the Amygdala

open access: yesNature Neuroscience, 2020
General anesthesia (GA) can produce analgesia (loss of pain) independent of inducing loss of consciousness, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We hypothesized that GA suppresses pain in part by activating supraspinal analgesic circuits.

General Anesthetics on Immune System Cytokines: A Narrative Review Article

open access: yesAnesthesiology and Pain Medicine, 2020
Context According to the previous studies, general anesthesia influences the immune system. Evaluating such impacts on the immune system helps to improve the management of anesthesia.

Volatile anesthetics maintain tidal volume and minute ventilation to a greater degree than propofol under spontaneous respiration

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2021
Background Although general anesthetics depress spontaneous respiration, the comprehensive effect of general anesthetics on respiratory function remains unclear. We aimed to investigate the effects of general anesthetics on spontaneous respiration in non-

Volatile Anesthetics Regulate Anti-Cancer Relevant Signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
Volatile anesthetics are widely used inhalation anesthetics in clinical anesthesia. In recent years, the regulation of anti-cancer relevant signaling of volatile anesthetics has drawn the attention of investigators.

Relevance of Cortical and Hippocampal Interneuron Functional Diversity to General Anesthetic Mechanisms: A Narrative Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2022
General anesthetics disrupt brain processes involved in consciousness by altering synaptic patterns of excitation and inhibition. In the cerebral cortex and hippocampus, GABAergic inhibition is largely mediated by inhibitory interneurons, a heterogeneous

A Double-Edged Sword: Volatile Anesthetic Effects on the Neonatal Brain

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2014
The use of volatile anesthetics, a group of general anesthetics, is an exceedingly common practice. These anesthetics may have neuroprotective effects. Over the last decade, anesthetic induced neurotoxicity in pediatric populations has gained a certain ...

Lasting effects of general anesthetics on the brain in the young and elderly: “mixed picture” of neurotoxicity, neuroprotection and cognitive impairment

open access: yesJournal of Anesthesia, 2019
General anesthetics are commonly used in major surgery. To achieve the depth of anesthesia for surgery, patients are being subjected to a variety of general anesthetics, alone or in combination.
