Description
Enflurane belongs to the organofluorides, a class of organohalogen compounds within the organic compounds. It is an exogenous liquid at room temperature with the formula C3H2ClF5O and an average molecular weight of 184.49 g/mol. This compound is used as an anesthetic and is found in recorded sources including healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and veterinary products, as well as household cleaning and consumer products such as tobacco smoke filters and non-electric simulated smoking devices, and electrical and electronic equipment including electrodes, conductive bodies, and electrically stimulated smoking devices. The recorded route of exposure is respiratory. Enflurane interacts with 95 recorded protein targets, including the glycine receptor subunit alpha-1 (GLRA1), glutamate receptor 1 (GRIA1), calcium-transporting ATPase type 2C member 1 (ATP2C1), and NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase chain 1 (MT-ND1). It acts as a stimulator/potentiator of the transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily A member 1 (TRPA1), the intermediate conductance calcium-activated potassium channel protein 4 (KCNN4), and glutamate receptor ionotropic NMDA 2D (GRIN2D) and 3B (GRIN3B), among 83 other proteins. Enflurane induces a reduction in junctional conductance by decreasing gap junction channel opening times and increasing gap junction channel closing times. It activates calcium dependent ATPase in the sarcoplasmic reticulum by increasing the fluidity of the lipid membrane and appears to bind the D subunit of ATP synthase and NADH dehydogenase. Additionally, enflurane binds to the GABA receptor, the large conductance Ca2+ activated potassium channel, the glycine receptor, and the glutamate receptor.

Mechanism of ToxicityEnflurane induces a reduction in junctional conductance by decreasing gap junction channel opening times and increasing gap junction channel closing times. Enflurane also activates calcium dependent ATPase in the sarcoplasmic reticulum by increasing the fluidity of the lipid membrane. It also appears to bind the D subunit of ATP synthase and NADH dehydogenase. Enflurane also binds to and angonizes the GABA receptor, the large conductance Ca2+ activated potassium channel, the glycine receptor, and antagonizes the glutamate receptor receptor. These yield a decreased depolarization and therefore, tissue excitability which results in anesthesia.
Carcinogenicity (IARC Classification)No indication of carcinogenicity to humans (not listed by IARC).
Minimum Risk LevelNot Available
SymptomsSymptoms of acute overdose include nausea, vomiting, irritation to the eyes, skin and nose/throat, headache, dizziness, and drowsiness. Symptoms of chronic overdose include hypotension, cardiac arrhythmias, respiratory depression, and liver/kidney dysfunction.
