Effects of Anesthetics on Barrier Tissue Function
Journal of Immunology Research, 2019 Anesthetics have long been proven to have additional effects other than anesthesia on different organs and tissues of the human body. Barrier tissues play critical roles in human health and diseases, yet the impacts of anesthetics on barrier tissues are ...

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

Volatile Anesthetics and Immunity. [PDF]
Immunol Invest, 2017 Historically, volatile anesthetics have demonstrated interesting interactions with both the innate and adaptive immune systems. This review organizes these interactions into four phases: recognition, recruitment, response, and resolution. These phases represent a range of proinflammatory, inflammatory, and innate and adaptive immune regulatory ...

Use of Volatile Anesthetics in Extracorporeal Circulation
Brazilian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2012 The use of volatile anesthetics in cardiac surgery is not recent. Since the introduction of halothane in clinical practice, several cardiac surgery centers started to use these anesthetics constantly.In the last years a great number of studies have shown that the volatile anesthetics have a protecting effect against myocardial ischemic dysfunction ...

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 ...
