The effect of volatile anesthetics on cellular responses in the microcirculation of free tissue transfers [PDF]
Advances in Interventional Cardiology, 2021 The purpose of this review was to summarize the anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties of volatile anesthetics and present their potential impact on the outcomes of major surgical procedures as well as microsurgical cases of free tissue ...

Nephrotoxicity and Modern Volatile Anesthetics: A Narrative Review [PDF]
ToxicsVolatile anesthetics, while increasingly utilized in intensive care medicine, are associated with significant renal adverse effects. A critical safety concern—particularly with sevoflurane—involves its potential impact on renal function ...

Mechanisms underlying neonate-specific metabolic effects of volatile anesthetics [PDF]
eLife, 2021 Volatile anesthetics (VAs) are widely used in medicine, but the mechanisms underlying their effects remain ill-defined. Though routine anesthesia is safe in healthy individuals, instances of sensitivity are well documented, and there has been significant

Development of a simple method for differential delivery of volatile anesthetics to the spinal cord of the rabbit. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2020 Emulsified volatile anesthetic can be directly injected into the circulation and eliminated from blood through lungs. Taking advantage of the unique pharmacokinetics of the emulsified volatile anesthetics, we aimed to develop a less traumatic method to ...

Volatile anesthetics and ischemia-reperfusion injury [PDF]
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2015 Ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury can occur under various clinical conditions in which the restoration of blood and oxygen to ischemic tissues results in a massive release of oxygen free radicals. For example, cardiac surgery, stroke, tourniquet application for orthopedic surgery, organ transplantation, and restoration of shock can cause IR injury ...

Volatile anesthetics as a neuroprotective agent [PDF]
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2011 Pharmacologic protection of brain from ischemic insult has been intensively investigated since the early 1960s [1] and a considerable amount of work has been performed to show the effectiveness of various drugs. Among these studies, anesthetic agents, including intravenous and volatile drugs, were shown to be promising agents.

The Differential Effects of Anesthetics on Bacterial Behaviors. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Volatile anesthetics have been in clinical use for a long period of time and are considered to be promiscuous by presumably interacting with several ion channels in the central nervous system to produce anesthesia. Because ion channels and their existing
