| Research Abstract |
The effects of halothane on the intracellular Ca^<2+> concentration ([Ca^<2+>]i) of isolated guinea pig hepatocytes were investigated .When hepatocytes were incubated in Hank's solution containing Ca^<2+>, trypan blue uptake which indicates death of cell was 13.5<plus-minus>3.41%, and [Ca^<2+>]i was 158<plus-minus>73.5nM in control.By halothane exposure, both trypan blue uptake and [Ca^<2+>]i were increased in concentration-dependent fashion.When hepatocytes were incubated in Hank's solution excluded Ca^<2+>, trypan blue uptake was 31.2<plus-minus>6.40%, and [Ca^<2+>]i was 249<plus-minus>27.5nM in control.By halothane exposure, trypan blue uptake was increased in concentration-depandent fashion, while [Ca^<2+>]i was decreased.
From these results, the increases of trypan blue uptake in experiments 1 and 2 indicate the hepatotoxicity of halothane with or without Ca^<2+> in medium. The increase of [Ca^<2+>]i of hepatocytes in physiological condition indicate the direct injury of halothane to hepatocyte cell membrane.
