Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-sensitive potassium (k+ATP) channels play an important role in pulmonary vasoregulation. However, the effects of volatile anesthetics on k+ATP channel-mediated pulmonary vasoregulation have not been elucidated. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of halothane and enflurane anesthesia on the pulmonary vasodilator response to the selective k+ATP channel agonist lemakalim (BRJ38227) compared with that measured in the conscious state. The authors also investigated the extent to which endogenous neurohumoral vasoconstrictor mechanisms modulate the vasodilator response to k+ATP channel activation.
