Anesthesia induces neuronal cell death in the developing rat brain via the intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways

JH Yon, J Daniel-Johnson, LB Carter… - Neuroscience, 2005 - Elsevier
It was shown recently that exposure of the developing rat brain during the peak of
synaptogenesis to commonly used general anesthetics can trigger widespread apoptotic …

General anesthesia activates BDNF-dependent neuroapoptosis in the developing rat brain

LX Lu, JH Yon, LB Carter, V Jevtovic-Todorovic - Apoptosis, 2006 - Springer
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is important in supporting neuronal development.
BDNF imbalance due to excessive neuronal inhibition can result in the apoptotic …

Clinical anesthesia causes permanent damage to the fetal guinea pig brain

S Rizzi, LB Carter, C Ori… - Brain …, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
Exposure of the immature brain to general anesthesia is common. The safety of this practice
has recently been challenged in view of evidence that general anesthetics can damage …

Melatonin reduces the severity of anesthesia-induced apoptotic neurodegeneration in the developing rat brain

JH Yon, LB Carter, RJ Reiter… - Neurobiology of …, 2006 - Elsevier
General anesthetics cause widespread apoptotic neurodegeneration in many regions of the
developing rat brain. The activation of mitochondria-dependent apoptotic pathway is …

Early exposure to general anesthesia causes significant neuronal deletion in the developing rat brain

H Nikizad, JH Yon, LB Carter… - Annals of the new …, 2007 - Wiley Online Library
Frequent exposure of children to general anesthesia is common practice in modern medicine.
Although previously unrecognized, recent in vitro and in vivo animal studies suggest that …

An experimental study of trace element fluxes from subducted oceanic crust

LB Carter, S Skora, JD Blundy… - Journal of …, 2015 - academic.oup.com
We have determined experimentally the hydrous phase relations and trace element partitioning
behaviour of ocean floor basalt protoliths at pressures and temperatures (3 GPa, 750–…

The anesthetics nitrous oxide and ketamine are more neurotoxic to old than to young rat brain

V Jevtovic-Todorovic, LB Carter - Neurobiology of aging, 2005 - Elsevier
Nitrous oxide (N 2 O) and ketamine are common general anesthetics and antagonists of N-methyl-d-aspartate
(NMDA) glutamate receptors. In clinically relevant concentrations, they …

Effect of melt composition on crustal carbonate assimilation: Implications for the transition from calcite consumption to skarnification and associated CO2 degassing

LB Carter, R Dasgupta - Geochemistry, Geophysics …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Skarns are residue of relatively low‐temperature magma‐induced decarbonation in the
crust largely associated with silicic plutons. Mafic magmatic intrusions are also capable of …
