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 ...

Isoflurane induces learning impairment that is mediated by interleukin 1β in rodents. [PDF]
Postoperative cognitive decline is a clinical syndrome. Volatile anesthetics are commonly used during surgery. It is conceivable that volatile anesthetics may contribute to postoperative cognitive decline.

The Effects of Changing from Isoflurane to Desflurane on the Recovery Profile during the Latter Part of Anesthesia [PDF]
It is not known whether changing from isoflurane to desflurane during the latter part of anesthesia shows early emergence and recovery in long surgery.

Isoflurane anesthesia promotes cognitive impairment by inducing expression of β-amyloid protein-related factors in the hippocampus of aged rats. [PDF]
Isoflurane anesthesia has been shown to be responsible for cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and development of AD in the older age groups.

Euthanasia of laboratory mice: Are isoflurane and sevoflurane real alternatives to carbon dioxide?
In the European Union (EU) millions of laboratory mice are used and killed for experimental and other scientific purposes each year. Although controversially discussed, the use of carbon dioxide (CO2) is still permitted for killing rodents according to ...

Isoflurane impairs oogenesis through germ cell apoptosis in C. elegans
Anesthetic isoflurane has been reported to induce toxicity. However, the effects of isoflurane on fecundity remain largely unknown. We established a system in C. elegans to investigate the effects of isoflurane on oogenesis.

Time-Dependent Effects of Anesthetic Isoflurane on Reactive Oxygen Species Levels in HEK-293 Cells [PDF]
The inhalation anesthetic isoflurane has been reported to induce caspase activation and apoptosis, which may lead to learning and memory impairment. However, the underlying mechanisms of these effects are largely unknown.

Lower doses of isoflurane treatment has no beneficial effects in a rat model of intracerebral hemorrhage [PDF]
Background: Intracerebral hemorrhage is a subtype of stroke that has a poor prognosis without an adequate therapy. Recently, the use of anesthetics such as isoflurane has been shown to be protective after cerebral ischemia.
