Prolonged exposure to volatile anesthetics, such as isoflurane and sevoflurane, causes neurodegeneration in the developing animal brains. Recent studies showed that dexmedetomidine, a selective α2-adrenergic agonist, reduced isoflurane-induced cognitive ...

The introduction of isoflurane to clinical practice follows the search for a nonflammable, potent inhalation anesthetic which, above all, is chemically stable so as to resist biodegradation or attack by other chemicals. These attributes characterize isoflurane (Table 2).

Paired assessment of volatile anesthetic concentrations with synaptic actions recorded in vitro. [PDF]
The volatile anesthetic isoflurane poses a number of experimental challenges in the laboratory. Due to its rapid evaporation, the open conditions of most in vitro electrophysiological recording systems make the determination of actual isoflurane ...

The volatile anesthetic isoflurane increases endothelial adenosine generation via microparticle ecto-5'-nucleotidase (CD73) release. [PDF]
Endothelial dysfunction is common in acute and chronic organ injury. Isoflurane is a widely used halogenated volatile anesthetic during the perioperative period and protects against endothelial cell death and inflammation.

Isoflurane for conscious sedation [PDF]
SummaryIsoflurane 0.5% in oxygen for conscious sedation was compared with placebo (oxygen) and with an equipotent concentration of nitrous oxide in oxygen, in patients scheduled for surgical removal of bilateral, similarly impacted lower third molars. The majority of patients were sedated with 0.5% isoflurane in oxygen and preferred it to both placebo ...
