Effect of general anesthetics on the developing brain
Studies on rodents and subhuman primates suggest that prolonged exposure to general anesthetics may induce widespread neuronal cell death and neurological sequelae; seriously questioning the safety of pediatric anesthesia.

Are Local Anesthetics and General Anesthetics Different? [PDF]
It is widely believed that general and local anesthetics act by different mechanisms. While there is general agreement that the mode of action of general anesthetics is poorly understood, local anesthetics are believed to block voltage-gated sodium channels and thereby affect action potentials in nerves.

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

Long-term effects of neonatal single or multiple isoflurane exposures on spatial memory in rats
General anesthetics are neurotoxic to neonatal rodents and nonhuman primates. Neonatal exposure to general anesthetics has been associated with long-term cognitive deficits in animal models. Some data from humans are consistent with long-term deleterious

The GABAA receptor (GABAAR) is a target channel for the loss of awareness of general anesthesia. General anesthetic (GA) spans a wide range of chemical structures, such as monatomic molecules, barbital acids, phenols, ethers, and alkanes.

Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer
Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.
