Stock solutions (1 μg/mL) of the standards-hesperidin, naringin, 6-gingerol, glycyrrhizinic acid, and liquiritigenin were prepared...

... of intraluminal impedance and pressurein the jejunum of healthy subjects. Methods: 12 healthy volunteers (m 4, f 8), mean age 32.3 years (24–49 years), underwent jejunal combined impedance/manometry recordings (six channels at 2-cm intervals). Fasting (one MMC cycle) and postprandial motility were recorded...

Moreover, enteric bacterial overgrowth and translocation were prevented in hepatectomized animals. The present data imply that impaired intestinal motility, followed by enteric bacterial overgrowth...

... with slow transit constipation. Analysis of the 24-hour manometric recordings showed that these subjects: (1) had overall scarce rectal motility; (2) display few rectal motor complexes (average, 3.3 ± 1.3/subject/24 h) which are irregularly distributed over time, and (3) respond weakly to ingestion...

... significantly increased. On the other hand, the release of somatostatin-like immunoreactivity was suppressed by 50–70% in the presence of insulin. These results demonstrate that in vitro insulin can modify both the motility responses of isolated segments of rat ileum and the neuropeptide release from...

...Oliver Keinke; Sabine Wulschke; Hans Jörg Ehrlein The effect of neurotensin (10 pmol/kg/min) on gastric emptying was investigated in 5 dogs. Gastroduodenal motility was recorded with strain-gauge transducers and induction coils, gastric emptying was measured radiographically. In the first 15 min...

It is concluded that the resistance changes are produced by local movement in the colonic wall at the electrode site and that this technique may be valuable in studying colonic motility.

... deoxycholic acid (15 mmol/l) was shown to cause a statistically significant increase in percentage motility of the isolated colon (control 24.2 + 5.5%, deoxycholic acid 64.9 + 7.3%, p < 0.01). The magnitude of this increase was similar to the increased colonic motility recorded during carbachol (2.5 μg/cm...
