Abstract
AIM To study the pathogenesis of hepatotoxicity of halothane.
METHODS The effect of different concentration of halothane and sevoflurane on mitochondrial membrane phospholipids composition of rat liver were analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) technology.
RESULTS Halothane at low concentration could degrade mitochondr ial membrane major phos-pholipids and increase lysophosphatidylcholine.
CONCLUSION The pathogenesis of halothane hepatotoxicity was the phospholipids variation on liver mitochondria.
Keywords: halothane, sevoflurane, liver mitochondria, HPLC, hepatotoxicity
