Strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors mediate the analgesic but not the hypnotic effects of emulsified volatile anaesthetics.
The present study was designed to investigate the role of strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors in hypnosis and analgesia induced by emulsified volatile anesthetics. After having established the mice model of hypnosis and analgesia by intraperitoneally injecting (i.p.) appropriate doses of ether, enflurane, isoflurane or sevoflurane, we intracerebroventricularly (i.c.v.) or intrathecally (i.t....
متن کاملThe evidence for the existence of cannabinoid receptors.
Recent advances in cannabis research have led to the conclusion that many of the characteristic effects of cannabis are mediated by cannabinoid receptors. It is the purpose of this article to review the evidence for the existence of such receptors by considering the extent to which the putative cannabinoid receptor satisfies a set of interrelated criteria that have often been used in the past t...
متن کاملClimate effect of inhaled anaesthetics.
Almost all areas of human activity have the potential to influence climate. The administration of inhalation anaesthetics is one such activity. However, since the first dedicated study in 1989 of the possible role of halogenated anaesthetics, they have received only sporadic interest. Two recent papers, published in this issue of the British Journal of Anaesthesia and in Anesthesia and Analgesi...

The topic may be approached by defining the concept of anaesthesia, a term introduced by Oliver Wendell Holmes for defining the elimination of surgical pain, characterised by immobility, eliminating pain, amnesia and lack of consciousness, effects provoked by using anaesthetic agents reversibly affecting different areas of the central nervous system (CNS). These conditions were successfully met...
متن کاملLocal anaesthetics inhibit signalling of human NMDA receptors recombinantly expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes: role of protein kinase C.
BACKGROUND N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-receptor activation contributes to postoperative hyperalgesia. Studies in volunteers have shown that intravenous local anaesthetics (LAs) prevent the development of hyperalgesic pain states. One potential explanation for this beneficial effect is the inhibition of NMDA receptor activation. Therefore, we studied the effects of LA on NMDA receptor function. ...
