Incubation of rat liver mitochondria in the presence of halothane induced a consistent impairment of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation without significantly affecting the steady-state of transmembrane electrical potential. These alterations of mitochondrial energy-linked processes were associated with a consistent accumulation of long-chain acyl CoA. Addition of L-carnitine partially prevented the effects of halothane on oxidative phosphorylation and completely abolished the halothane-induced long-chain acyl CoA accumulation. The possibility is discussed that the damaging action of halothane on mitochondrial functions might be partially ascribed to the noxious action of the excess of long-chain acyl CoA induced the anesthetic.
