摘要:
The effects of volatile anesthetics upon the function of bovine rhodopsin were estimated from the measurements of light-induced proton uptake. The light-inducedpH changes were measured at both 20° C and 37° C with suspensions to which volatile anesthetics were added in the liquid form. Each anesthetic depressed the light-induced proton uptake concentration-dependently. The anesthetic-induced depression was greater at 37° C than at 20° C. For each anesthetic the concentration needed to depress the proton uptake by 10% was roughly identical to that used clinically. Anesthetics also were added to the suspensions in the gaseous form with air. The light-induced proton uptake was decreased in proportion to the partial pressure of the anesthetic. The partial pressures of halothane and methoxyflurane that depressed the proton uptake by 10% at 37° C were 2.0 X 10-2and 1.1 X 10-2atm., respectively. From these facts it is suggested that volatile anesthetics affect the light-induced conformational changes of rhodopsin molecule during the metarhodopsin I to metarhodopsin II transition and cause inhibition of the light-induced proton uptake of rhodopsin in the rod outer segment disk membrane.
