This study examined the generation of dihydroxybutyric acid in the coronary sinus blood following administration of salicyclic acid as an indicator of hydroxyl radical during ischemic-reperfusion injury.

This is an interesting study examining the role of inhaled anesthetics in protection against ischemic-reperfusion injury using both in-vivo and in-vitro rabbit heart models. The authors also emphasize the role of adenosine receptors and ATP sensitive potassium channels in the mechanism of the protection offered by the use of volatile anesthetic agents.

This is another related study that demonstrated the protective role of isoflurane through the activation of adenosine receptors type-1 and preservation of myocardial contractility following an ischemic episode.

Anesthesiology 1997; 86:448-458. These researchers investigated the effects of different anesthetics on isolated coronary arteries and calculated the vascular resistance and blood flow in the presence of a blocker of ATP sensitive potassium channels to reveal the role of these channels in the underlying mechanism of anesthetic-induced coronary vasodilation.

Different effects of halothane, isoflurane and sevoflurane on sarcoplasmic reticulum of vascular smooth muscle in dog mesenteric artery. Acta Anaesthesiol Scand 1997; 41:376-380. These investigators studied the effects of different volatile anesthetics on contractility of isolated canine mesenteric artery and calcium ion loading using different concentrations of calcium in the media and caffeine stimulation. The data indicate that calcium loading into the sarcoplasmic reticulum is affected by the use of volatile anesthetics.
