Common anesthetic molecules prefer to partition in liquid disorder phase domain in a composite multicomponent membrane [PDF]
Despite a vast clinical application of anesthetics, the molecular level of understanding of general anesthesia is far from our reach. Using atomistic molecular dynamics simulation, we study the effects of common anesthetics: ethanol, chloroform and methanol in the fully hydrated symmetric multicomponent lipid bilayer membrane comprising of an ...

Electroencephalogram of Healthy Horses During Inhaled Anesthesia. [PDF]
BackgroundPrevious study of the diagnostic validity of electroencephalography (EEG) to detect abnormalities in equine cerebral cortical function relied on the administration of various drugs for sedation, induction, and maintenance of general anesthesia ...

Radical pairs may play a role in xenon-induced general anesthesia [PDF]
Understanding the mechanisms underlying general anesthesia would be a key step towards understanding consciousness. The process of xenon-induced general anesthesia has been shown to involve electron transfer, and the potency of xenon as a general anesthetic exhibits isotopic dependence. We propose that these observations can be explained by a mechanism

Membrane Nanodomains Homeostasis During Propofol Anesthesia as Function of Dosage and Temperature [PDF]
Some anesthetics bind and potentiate gamma-aminobutyric-acid-type receptors, but no universal mechanism for general anesthesia is known. Furthermore, often encountered complications such as anesthesia induced amnesia are not understood. General anesthetics are hydrophobic molecules easily dissolving into lipid bilayers.

Binding Site and Affinity Prediction of General Anesthetics to Protein Targets Using Docking [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The protein targets for general anesthetics remain unclear. A tool to predict anesthetic binding for potential binding targets is needed.

Alcohol Interactions with Lipid Bilayers
We investigate the structural changes to lipid membrane that ensue from the addition of aliphatic alcohols with various alkyl tail lengths. Small angle neutron diffraction from flat lipid bilayers that are hydrated through water vapor has been employed ...

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

Cardiac output and the pharmacology of general anesthetics: a narrative review
The relationship between cardiac output and anesthetic drugs is important to anesthesiologists, since cardiac output determines the speed with which a drug infused into the bloodstream reaches its target and the intensity of the drug’s effect.

General Anesthetic Techniques in Swine
General anesthesia techniques for swine can be challenging due to the animal's temperament, anatomic traits, physical condition, and the environment in which the clinician may be working. Taking these factors into consideration, this article provides specific information on preanesthetic considerations, venous catheterization, drug selection ...
