Increased sensitivity to local anesthetic drugs: bedside to bench.
This issue of Circulation Research contains the surprising report of a middle-aged African American with Brugada syndrome associated with 2 widely separated missense mutations in the Na channel gene and with dramatically increased lidocaine sensitivity.1 Following a seizure in the emergency room, the patient developed an episode of monomorphic ventricular tachycardia terminated by electric shoc...
متن کاملHypersensitivity Reaction to Local Anesthetic in Dentistry: A Case Report
Background and Aim: Local anesthesia plays an important role in dentistry. Although hypersensitivity reactions to local anesthetic drugs are rare,but they are more common in dental cartridge components. This study reports a rare case of hypersensitivity to components of local anesthesia cartridge. Case Report: A 61-year-old female patient referred to The Medical Council to complain the dentist ...
متن کاملMetallothionein null cells have increased sensitivity to anticancer drugs.
Overexpression of metallothioneins (MTs) protects some cells against heavy metals, mutagens, anticancer agents, and reactive oxygen species. We have examined the effect of the loss of MT expression on the cytotoxicity of anticancer agents and mutagens using embryonic fibroblast cells from transgenic mice with targeted disruptions of MT I and II genes (MT -/-). MT -/- cells expressed no detectab...
متن کاملNanogel scavengers for drugs: local anesthetic uptake by thermoresponsive nanogels.
The use of functional nanogels based on poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) for effectively scavenging compounds (here, the model drug bupivacaine) is demonstrated using an in vitro cell-based assay. Nanogels containing higher loadings of acidic functional groups or more core-localized functional group distributions bound more bupivacaine, while nanogel size had no significant effect on drug binding. I...
متن کاملThe Sodium Channel as a Target for Local Anesthetic Drugs
Na channels are the source of excitatory currents for the nervous system and muscle. They are the target for a class of drugs called local anesthetics (LA), which have been used for local and regional anesthesia and for excitatory problems such as epilepsy and cardiac arrhythmia. These drugs are prototypes for new analgesic drugs. The drug-binding site has been localized to the inner pore of th...
