Core Tip The GABAergic general anesthetics may act as stressors and endocrine disruptors in neonates and young adults. They may induce two distinct types of long-term adverse effects: neuroendocrine effects (the somatic effects) and epigenetic reprogramming of germ cells (the germ cell effects). The latter may pass neurobehavioral abnormalities to male offspring. Compared to the somatic cells, the germ cells may be more sensitive to the deleterious effects of general anesthetics, raising the possibility that the offspring may be affected even when levels of anesthesia are not harmful to the exposed parents. Further rigorous experimental testing of all these possibilities is required.
