DOI: 10.1016/j.ejps.2016.12.041
Abstract: Abstract Owing to rapid generation in body, the metabolites of etomidate softdrug are able to accumulate in either the brain or periphery and subsequently affect the recovery from anaesthesia or cause corticosteroid suppression. This study… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/aln.0000000000004361
Abstract: Background: Etomidate, barbiturates, alfaxalone, and propofol are anesthetics that allosterically modulate γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptors via distinct sets of molecular binding sites. Two-state concerted coagonist models account for anesthetic effects and predict supra-additive… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12871-025-03065-3
Abstract: Etomidate-induced myoclonus has become a pressing clinical problem with an incidence of 50–80%. The underlying mechanism involves neocortical glutamate accumulation and N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor activity. However, the therapeutic target remains uncertain. Adult male Sprague-Dawley (SD)… read more here.
