Which molecular targets are most relevant to general anaesthesia?
1. In view of the large number of possible molecular targets of general anaesthetics, it is necessary to have some criteria for judging which targets are important for producing general anaesthesia and which are probably not. 2. We consider in detail two criteria: sensitivity to clinically relevant concentrations of anaesthetics and stereoselectivity to anaesthetic optical isomers. 3. The targe...
متن کاملMolecular Targets Underlying the Anticancer Effects of Quercetin: An Update
Quercetin, a medicinally important member of the flavonoid family, is one of the most prominent dietary antioxidants. It is present in a variety of foods-including fruits, vegetables, tea, wine, as well as other dietary supplements-and is responsible for various health benefits. Numerous pharmacological effects of quercetin include protection against diseases, such as osteoporosis, certain form...
متن کاملGeneral anaesthesia for neurosurgery.
Anaesthesia for neurosurgery, especially intracranial operations, requires conditions which maintain the perfusion of the brain with blood. This perfusion results from the cerebral perfusion pressure: the difference between the arterial and the intracranial pressures. Anaesthesia must also facilitate surgical access by reducing brain volume and minimizing surgical haemorrhage. Other common prob...
متن کامل3 General Anaesthesia
General anaesthesia is a tetrad of amnesia (unconsciousness), analgesia, control of autonomic reflexes and muscle relaxation. Amnesia (unconsciousness) is usually induced by intra-venous anaesthetic agents and then maintained by using inhalational anaesthetic agents. Analgesia is provided by various analgesic drugs or by regional/peripheral nerve blocks. Muscle relaxation component of general a...
متن کاملGeneral Anaesthesia in Cattle
General anaesthesia is the controlled and reversible loss of consciousness, which is helpful in ruminants for many surgical procedures that warrant effective control of pain and movement. General anaesthesia is indicated when the demands of technical and anatomical aspects of surgical procedure exceed the capabilities of sedative drugs and local analgesia. Moreover, the patient co-operation and...
