The use of genetic approaches to probe relative genes that control sensitivity to volatile anesthetics in intact model has recently emerged as the powerful tools and strategies in dissecting mechanisms of anesthesia. Multiple model organisms such as yeast, nematodes, fruitflies and mammals are currently being exploited, and a number of sensitive genes have been screened, with some of them being cloned, located, and function identified. The emerging technologies are likely to provide further great advances for elucidating the specific anesthetic molecular sites.
