Anesthetics primarily bind to specific sites on voltage-gated sodium channels in the neuronal cell membrane, inhibiting the flow of sodium ions and preventing the generation and propagation of action potentials. Additionally, some anesthetics may interact with gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors, enhancing inhibitory neurotransmission in the central nervous system. This dual action contributes to their effectiveness in blocking pain and inducing unconsciousness.
