Structure and Dynamics of Brain Lobe's Functional Networks at the Onset of Anesthesia-Induced Loss of Consciousness [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 Anesthetic agents are neurotropic drugs capable of inducing significant alterations in the thalamocortical system, promoting a profound decrease in awareness and level of consciousness. There is experimental evidence that general anesthesia affects large-scale functional networks, leading to alterations in the brain's state.

Certain General Anesthetics Used in Pediatrics Hinder Neurological Development in Infants [PDF]
, 2015 General anesthetics act by either blocking N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors or over stimulating γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors.1–3 The actions of these receptors are responsible for the anesthetized state and are also crucial in the ...

Propofol inhibits prokaryotic voltage-gated Na+ channels by promoting activation-coupled inactivation [PDF]
, 2018 Propofol is widely used in the clinic for the induction and maintenance of general anesthesia. As with most general anesthetics, however, our understanding of its mechanism of action remains incomplete.

Vibrational Infrared Lifetime of the Anesthetic nitrous oxide gas in solution [PDF]
Biophysical Review Letters, 1:309-316 (2006), 2007 The lifetime of the asymmetric fundamental stretching 2218 cm$^{-1}$ vibration of the anesthetic gas nitrous oxide (N$_2$O) dissolved in octanol and olive oil is reported. These solvents are model systems commonly used to assess anesthetic potency. Picosecond time-scale molecular dynamics simulations have suggested that protein dynamics or membrane ...
