Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Does mutation of alpha1G T-type calcium channels in mice change anesthetic requirements for loss of the righting reflex and minimum alveolar concentration but delays the onset of anesthetic induction?
Answer: The 50% effective concentration for loss of righting reflex and MAC values for the volatile anesthetics were not altered after alpha1G calcium channel knockout, indicating that normal functioning of alpha1G calcium channels is not required for the maintenance of anesthetic hypnosis and immobility. However, the timely induction of anesthesia/hypnosis by volatile anesthetic agents and some intravenous anesthetic agents may require the normal functioning of these channel subunits.
Output (English): no
