SLO-2 is cytoprotective and contributes to mitochondrial potassium transport. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Mitochondrial potassium channels are important mediators of cell protection against stress. The mitochondrial large-conductance "big" K(+) channel (mBK) mediates the evolutionarily-conserved process of anesthetic preconditioning (APC), wherein exposure ...

A Double-Edged Sword: Volatile Anesthetic Effects on the Neonatal Brain
Brain Sciences, 2014 The use of volatile anesthetics, a group of general anesthetics, is an exceedingly common practice. These anesthetics may have neuroprotective effects. Over the last decade, anesthetic induced neurotoxicity in pediatric populations has gained a certain ...

Volatile anesthetics in preventing acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery: A systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
, 2014 ObjectiveAcute kidney injury is a common clinical complication of cardiac surgery. Volatile anesthetics have been shown to protect against it in animal experiments. Clinically, however, the effect of volatile anesthetics has been unclear.

Volatile anesthetics depress the depolarization-induced cytoplasmic calcium rise in PC 12 cells [PDF]
, 1987 In the rat pheochromocytoma cell line PC 12, the effects of four volatile anesthetics (halothane, isoflurane, enflurane, methoxyflurane) on the K+-evoked intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) rise were investigated using the Ca2+-sensitive fluorescence dye ...

Residual volatile anesthetics after workstation preparation and activated charcoal filtration [PDF]
, 2020 Background Volatile anesthetics potentially trigger malignant hyperthermia crises in susceptible patients. We therefore aimed to identify preparation procedures for the Draeger Primus that minimize residual concentrations of desflurane and sevoflurane ...
