Are Volatile Anesthetics Partial Agonists or Partial Inverse Agonists of Ligand-gated ion Channels?<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> 何绍明 ABSTRACT The basic mechanism of anesthetic action by volatile anesthetics is not completely understood. The early hypothesis that the anesthetic state was dependent on nonspecific interactions of anesthetics with the membrane bilayer has largely given way to the current idea that membrane-associated proteins, particularly ion channels, are specifically modulated by volatile anesthetics. Depression of glutamate-mediated excitatory transmission and potentiation of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-mediated inhibitiry transmission appear to be primary mechanisms by which general anesthetics produce anesthesia. More recent studies, however, have revealed that volatile anesthetics both enhance and inhibit ligand-gated ion channels by means of actions at distinct sites. The author proposes that volatile general anesthetics may act as partial agonists or partial inverse agonists of ligand-gated ion channels of central neurons, therefore the overall effect of an anaesthetic agent depends on summation of events occurring at the many individual ion channels of different neurones that make up the network with specific interactions between anesthetics and the receptor or binding sites of some subunits. 全麻原理是麻醉学最重要的基本理论之一,但全麻药作用的确切机制至今不明。一般认为吸入全麻药的作用机制较为复杂,其中可能包涵静脉全麻药[1]、局部麻醉药[2]、甚至乙醇的作用机制。根据近年的大量研究资料,笔者认为挥发性全麻药可能属于中枢神经元配体门离子通道部分激动或部分反激动剂。 一、 目前主流观点 |
