Isoflurane 25-35 kininogen 1 Bos taurus 39-49 8916833-6 1996 Although basal [Ca2+]i was unaltered by the anesthetics, both halothane and enflurane, in a dose-dependent manner, depressed the peak and plateau of the [Ca2+]i transient elicited by 10 nM bradykinin, whereas isoflurane had no effect. Isoflurane 209-219 kininogen 1 Bos taurus 189-199 8712453-4 1996 METHODS: The effect of halothane and isoflurane on the Ca2+ response to bradykinin of bovine aortic endothelial (BAE) cells was investigated using the fluorescent Ca2+ indicator fura-2. Isoflurane 37-47 kininogen 1 Bos taurus 72-82 8712453-10 1996 RESULTS: The results of the current study indicate that the initial Ca2+ increase in response to bradykinin stimulation is not affected by halothane, but that pulse applications of halothane (0.4-2 mM) or isoflurane (0.5-1 mM) reversibly reduce the sustained cytosolic Ca2+ increase initiated either by bradykinin or by the Ca2+ pump inhibitor thapsigargin. Isoflurane 205-215 kininogen 1 Bos taurus 303-313 8712453-14 1996 CONCLUSIONS: These observations suggest that the effects of halothane and isoflurane on Ca2+ homeostasis in BAE cells reflect, for the most part, a reduction of the thapsigargin- or bradykinin-evoked Ca2+ influx, which would be consequent to a cellular depolarization caused by an inhibition of the Ca(2+)-dependent K+ channel activity initiated after cell stimulation.
