The primary physiologic effect of ethyl ether is /CNS depression/ and general anesthesia. Concentrations of ethyl ether ranging from 100,000 to 150,000 ppm are required for induction of anesthesia; however, exposure at this concentration may produce fatalities due to respiratory arrest.

Symptoms ... consist of loss of appetite, exhaustion, headache, sleepiness, dizziness, excitation, and psychic disturbances. Albuminuria ... and polycythemia may result.

Solvents
Liquids that dissolve other substances (solutes), generally solids, without any change in chemical composition, as, water containing sugar. (Grant and Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed) (See all compounds classified as Solvents.)
Anesthetics, Inhalation
Gases or volatile liquids that vary in the rate at which they induce anesthesia; potency; the degree of circulation, respiratory, or neuromuscular depression they produce; and analgesic effects. Inhalation anesthetics have advantages over intravenous agents in that the depth of anesthesia can be changed rapidly by altering the inhaled concentration. Because of their rapid elimination, any postoperative respiratory depression is of relatively short duration. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1994, p173) (See all compounds classified as Anesthetics, Inhalation.)

After inhalation, ethyl ether is rapidly transferred from alveoli to blood. The normal alveolar membrane poses no barrier to the transfer of ethyl ether in either direction. The blood/gas distribution coefficient of ethyl ether is high - 12.1. For oil/gas, the distribution coefficient is 65. ...The penetration /of ethyl ether/ in rabbit skin /was studied/. ... Doses over 20 mL/kg bw could not be retained in contact with the skin. ... The single dermal penetration LD50 was greater than 20 mL/kg bw.

It has been estimated that about 8-10% of absorbed ethyl ether is metabolized in the body whereas the remainder is excreted unchanged through the lungs. Ethyl ether is metabolized to ethanol and acetaldehyde by the inducible hepatic microsomal enzyme system, a cytochrome P450-containing monooxygenase system. Ethanol and acetaldehyde are rapidly oxidized to acetate, and the acetate subsequently enters the 2-carbon pool of intermediary metabolism.

The mechanism of action by which .... ethyl ether produce/s/ reversible loss of consciousness is still unclear. Anesthesia can be produced by a wide variety of chemical agents, ranging from inert rare gases to steriodal molecules. This apparent lack of specificity, together with the observation that general anesthesia can be reversed by high pressure, poses a unique pharmacological problem. Most theories concern interaction of anesthetics with either membrane lipids or hydrophobic regions of specificic membrane-bound proteins. One hypothesis is that the anesthetic changes the function of an ion channel protein by modifying the conformation of the protein. Some investigators suggest that the GABA receptor may be the ion channel protein that is affected by inhalation of anesthetic agents... The most appropriate concept for the mechanism of general anesthesia /may be/ a the heterogenous site of anesthetic action, including both lipid and protein membrane components linked with neuronal function.

In chronically catheterized rats, diethyl ether increased plasma adrenaline and noradrenaline concentrations indicating that this drug stimulates both neurosympathetic and adrenomedullary functions. These effects appear to be centrally mediated, since ganglionic blockade or spinal transection completely counteracted the diethyl ether induced increases in plasma calcium levels.

Hippocampal EEG signals derived from chronically implanted electrodes in the freely moving rat were recorded before and after administration of centrally acting drugs, and analyzed by power and coherence spectra. Diethyl ether induced a low frequency (3-6 c/s) theta power and coherence peak in the immobile rat, which was sensitive to atropine or scopolamine. The residue spectrum, defined as the EEG spectrum with the theta harmonics removed, was sensitive to centrally acting drugs. Diethyl ether suppressed fast waves of 50-100 c/s, and some conditions, enhanced 15-50 c/s waves.

Cortical action potential activity is suppressed by ether anesthesia and is not affected when sensory fibers in the sciatic nerve are stimulated. Consequently, ether blocks sensory pathways to the cortex; the blockade occurs even before cortical activity is entirely suspended. In contrast, pentobarbital suppresses activity in the cortex without blocking the sensory path to it during sciatic nerve stimulation.
