Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of tegaserod on visceral sensitivity and explore the regulating mechanism.Methods Forty-two male Spragre-Dawley rats,which were induced colonic inflammation by intraluminal administration of trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid(TNBS),were randomly divided into eight groups.In the three colorectal distention(CRD) treated groups(n=6),abdominal contractions were recorded after 3,7 and 14 days of intra-gastric administration of tegaserod 2mg/kg d.In the three CRD control groups(n=4),abdominal contractions were recorded after 3,7 and 14 days of intra-gastric injection of saline 2.0mL/d.In immunohistochemistry(IH) treated group(n=6) and IH control group(n=6),samples of colon were removed and processed for SP and CGRP immunohistochemistry after 7 days of intra-gastric administration of tegaserod and saline,respectively.Results Abdominal contractions induced by colonic distention decreased significantly at 1.2mL and 1.6mL distention volume after 3 days of tegaserod administration(P
