Abstract: | The effects of ether, chloroform and halothane on rat heart sarcolemmal ATP hydrolyzing and calcium binding activities were studied. Sarcolemmal Na+ ? K+ ATPase activity was inhibited by halothane (1.8 – 18 mM) and stimulated by ether (7.1 – 42.6 mM) and chloroform (7.5 – 45 mM). Higher concentrations of ether (56.8 – 71 mM) and chloroform (60 – 75 mM) depressed the Na+ ? K+ ATPase activity. Chloroform (7.5 – 75 mM) and halothane (1.8 – 18 mM) were found to decrease Mg2+ ATPase and Ca2+ ATPase activities, whereas e0her (42.6 – 71 mM) depressed only the Mg2+ ATPase activity. Sarcolemmal calcium binding was depressed by ether (42.6 – 71 mM), chloroform (45 – 75 mM) and halothane (10.8 – 18 mM). These results suggest that the anesthetic - induced cardiac depression may partly be due to decreased sarcolemmal activities. |
