ABSTRACT OFPART 1 I
Purpose: Theaim of the study was to investigate the effect of ileo-jejunaltransposition,
in which the distalilsum is interposed isoperistaltically into the proximal jejunum, on gastric emptying, gastrointe,stinalmotility,and fecalwater content in dogs with totalcolectomy・
Methods: D也gs were divided rinto three groups; _d9gS With intac.t colons (Control), total
colectomy alone (shamoperated group), or totalcolectomyand・ ileorjejunaltranspositiorll (UT・ A , ...
group). Thealimentary tract was reconstructed by ileai JIPOuCh-rectalanastomosis. Gastric
emptying was. measured by a validatedfre由6-drying method,and gastmintestinal mdtility''
was measured by strain gauge force transducers・ Plasmapeptide YY was measured by specific
radioimmunoassay・. Fecalwater content was measured in dogs withtotalcolectomy・
Results: Gastric emptying of solids in IJT group.was delayed later than120minut甲
after meal-ingestion compared to that in sham operated ・group. The duration of the digestive
state was prolonged in m group, only when compared to the control group・ Plasma peptide
YY was increased in IJT group compared to sham operated group・ Fecalwater content was decreased in IJT group compared to sham operated group・Conclusions: Ileo-jejunal transposition delays gastric emptying of solidsand decreases
might be able to improve intractable watery diarrhea after totalcolectomy.

INTRODUCTION
severeand intractable diarrhea after totalor subtotalproctocolectomyperformed for
ulcerative colitis or fmi1ial adeno/matous polyposis interferes with patients, quality of lifel ・
This diarrhea largely ・arises because of the lack of colonic absorpt10n Of water in the stool・
watery diarrhea after these operations improves depending on the postoperative time, as the
small intestine adapts by increasing its capacityto absorb water2, changes in plasma
concentrations of selected peptide hormones3,and changes in gastmintestinal motility4・ we
studiedthe ,・effects of: ileo-jejumaltransposition (IJT) on release of peptide hormones・ morphology of. intestinalmucosa,血d gastmintestinalmotility in dogs with intact colons5・ 6・
because IJTmight be・ us的I to.improve watery diarrhea after totalcolectomy by enhancing
adaptation. IJT involves interposing one fourthof the length of the jejunoileum
isoperistaltically into the proximal-jejunum・ In dogs with intact colons・ IJT leads to marked
mucosalhypertrophyalong the whole small intestineand inhibition of gastric emptyingand
motility5-7・ These changes appear to be mediated by increases in plasma concentrations of
enteroglucagon and/or peptide YY (PYY) in response to contact of endocrine cells in the ileal
mucosa withundigested chyme. These findings suggest that ・IJTmight be effective in
improvlng diarrhea after totalcolectomy・ Study of dogs withtotalcolectomy is the next step
toward clinicalapplication of this operative procedure・ In dogs after totalcolectomy・ we
previously reported mucosalhypertrophy inthe small intestineandanincrease in plasma
enteroglucagon8 ; however, gastrointestinal motility, transit,and the character of the stool were
not studied.
Theaim of the present study was to investigate in dogswithtotalcolectomy,the effect
of IJT on gastric emptying, gastrointestinalmotility, plasma concentrations of PYY, water
content inthe stool,and consistency pfthe stool・ Our hypothesis was that gastric motilityand
emptying would be inhibited bythe increaseinplasma PYY,托Calwater content would be
decreased,and consistency of the ・.stool would improve, compared to dogs after total
colectomy butwithout Err.

(TE-151, Terumo Co., Tokyo) after warming to 370c by a magnetic stirrer (RCH-3, Eyela Co., Tokyo). The PSP was used to measure duodenalvolume. After a 30minute equilibration
period, 1.5 ml samples of duodenalcontents were collected throughthe distalduodenaltube
at 5-min intervals. Three consecutive samples were combined to produce a 151min sample;
gastric emptying at 6 hours after mealingestiOn was determined forthese 15-min intervalS・
After 2 more successive samples,all dogs were glVenthe test mealand nnished eatingwithin

remaining inthe stomach inthe IJT group was greaterthanthat in shamoperated group at 180

DIS CUSSION.
various surgicalprocedures have been proposed to improve diarrhea after total colectomy・ Sdme surgeons have suggested constructing apantiperstaltic segment or creating a valve inthe I small intestine13, whereas others proposed constructing a jejunalJ-pouch14, tor
interposlnganileocecalValve151Althoughthese procedures were designed to improve
diarrhea by delaying small intestinaltransit, none of these procedures has ever been clinically
useful. Our method・IJT i岳differentfromthese previousaltemations because IJT intended to
improve diarrhea by changlngthe plasma peptidemiheu to enhance the small intestinal
function. Our hypothesisthat IJTmight improve diaxThea after totalcolectomy was derived
from our previous findings in dogs withintact colons; gastric emptyingand motility were
inhibitedand mucosal hypertrophy was observedalong the entire small intestine5・6・ Delay of
gastric emptyingand inhibition of gastric motilitywould letthe chyme contact with small intestinalmucosa for longertime, and enhanced small intestinalabsorption associated with
mucosalhypertrophy would occur・ These changesmight contribute toanimprovement of
postcolectomy diarrhea・ These changes after IJT were thought to be induced by the increase
exposed toundigested chyme would release these regulatory peptides・ IJTmightfunction as a
chronic model of the 'ilealbrake/ a phenomenonthat ilealperfusion with nutrients inhibits
gastric emptying, small intestinaltransit,and gastmintestinalmotilityl…・ The ilealbrake is
believed to be mediated by increase in plasma concentrations ofpeptides releasedfrom ・the ileum, including PYY, glucagon-likepeptide I (GLP-I),and enteroglucagon17・ 19・ 20・ we
soughtthe effect ・of IJT on gastric emptying, gastrointestinal motility,and fecalwater content
in dogs with totalcolectomy as a next step toward clinical・application of IJT・
・ we found that gastric emptying of solids was delayed later than120min after托eding・
and fecalwater content was decreased in dogs after colectom・y with IJT compared to dogs after totalcolectomy without Lrr・・ Delay of solid gastrid emptying was not considered to
suppress appetite or affect generalcondition, because the postoperative body weightand
laboratory data did not differ between the IJTand the sham operated groups・ Total plasma
pYy secretion was increased in dogs withIJT 90min after fecding・ Because PYY inhibits
gastric emptyingand motilityW・ 21, it is possiblethat this delay of 'solid emptying was related to
increased plasma PYY・ PYY isalso regarded as a most likely mediator of ilealbrake, because
fat-induced slowing Of small intestinaltransit was normalized withimmunoneutralization of pYY22,andthe delay of gastric emptying was related to increases in plasma PYY23・ showing
the inhibitory effect of intravenous administration of PYY on solid gastric emptying in
conscious dogs must be important to detemine the definitive role of PYY・ We・ however・
Consider that PYY mediates the inhibitory effect of IJT on gastric emptying・although itmight
not bethe sole factor. We could not detemine the role of GLP-I,another possible mediator of
ilealbrake19, in dogs with IJT because we did not measure plasma GLPll・
Fecalwater content in dogs after totalColectomy with IJT was reduced compared to
dogs after totalcolectomy without一IJT, suggesting that IJT improves watery diarrhea after
totalcolectomy. Severalreports correlatethe character of the stooland gastric emptying or
intestinaltransit: Gastric emptylng Was accelerated inthe diarrhea-typeof imitable bowel
syndrome24・ stoolformis associated with total oro-anal transit time25・ These results indicate
that delay or acceleration of・gastric emptying could contribute tothe changes of water content
inthe stool・ Becausethese reports・dealt withhumanwithout colectomy・ we cannot conclude that their data support correlation between gastric emptyingand fecalwater content in. dogs I I I after colectomy. The possibility, however, remains that delay 'of solid gastric emptying ・in ・
dogs with IJTmight be one of the mechanisms decreaslng fecalwater content・ We did not
measure small intestinaltransit whichmightalso contribute to the character of the stool
especially in dogs after totalcolectomy・ Differences of fecalwater content betwecnthe IJT
and the sham operated groups were only about 2%, which do not seem a big diuerence・
wenzl etalreportedthat fecalwater content of formed, semiformed, soft・ semiliquid,and
runny stools was about 72, 82, 86, 89,and 91%・ respectively26, suggesting that difference of
fecalwater content even in a couple of percent affects fecalconsistency・ In fact・ stool forms inspected visually in IJT group were betterthanthose in shamoperated group・ The duration of
the digestive state in the upper JeJunum, Which correlates to gastric emptying27・ was prolonged
in dogs after totalcolectomy with IJT compared with control dogs・ This phenomenon must
of each phase of the MMC,althoughglobaldigestiveand interdigestive motor pattem was
distinguishable. We considered that this fact must be associated with adhesion after subtotal
colectomy・ because this phenomen,on was observed not only in IJT butalso in shamgroups・
・ Weperformed experiments 6 weeks after colectomy, because thisperiod was
considered long enough for postoperative various changes to occur; increase in pl・asma PYY
and enteroglucagonand hypertrophy of the small intestinalmucosa were observed 4 and 12weeks after ileojejunaltransposition6・ 28. The possibility, however, Cannot be denied that
different kind of adaptation would be observed laterthan6 weeks after colectomy. We
perfomed ilealJ pouch-proctostomy to reconstruct thealimentary tract but not a side-to-end
or end・to-end ileoproctosotmy. This procedure was chosen tomimic ilealJ ・p・ouch-anal
anastomosis in human. It is possible thatthe existence of ilealJ pouch changed the plasma
peptidemilieu in the ・intetdigesti've stateand resulted in vanishment of each phase of the
MMC in dogs wi也colectomy.
Asa sham operated ・group we prepared dogs with totalcolectomy and jejunal
transectionand reanastomosis but not dogs withtotalcolectomyalone. This was to control for
certain changes in gastric emptying in dogs with IJT LaSSOCiated withtransectionand reanastomosis in the upper JeJunum. Transectionand reanastomosis atthe proximaland distal
jejunum affects the small intestinaltransitand contractile activity within the jejunalsegment
in conscious dogs29・
In conclusion, gastric emptying of solid was delayedand fecalwater content was
reduced in dogs after totalcolectomy with IJT, compared withdogs after totalcolectomy
without IJT・ These findings suggest the possibilitythat surgicalalterations of Lrrmight
improve severeand intractable diarrhea after totalcolectomy,and delay of solid gastric
emptying was considered as one it.its mechanisms. Delay of solid gastric emptying in dogs

ABSTRACT OF PART 2
Aim: Theaim of the present study was to studythe effects of ileo-jejumaltransposition
(IJT) on ilealcontractile activityin vitro in rats. Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were
divided into three groups; control, IJT,and sham・ In rats withIJT, the distalileum of
one-fourthof the length of the jejunoileum was isoperistaltically interposed into the proximal JeJunum. The jejunoileum was transectedandanastomosed at three sites in sham group・ Rats
were killed 17-20 Weeks postoperatively,and ilealsegment was removed・ IsomertriC
I contractile activity of the isolated ileallongitudinalmuscle was measured intissue chambers・
Results: Spontaneous contractile activity was decreased in IJT compared to control・ The
dose-response Curve tO CholinerglC agOnist bethanechol in IJT shifted tothe le氏compared to
other two groups,and the dose required to induce 200% response in IJT was less thancontrol
and sham (p<0.05), suggesting cholinergic hypersensitivity・ The dose-response curves to
adrenerglC agOnist noreplnePhrine were not different each other・ Electrical field
stimulation-induced inhibition of spontaneous activity was reversed by amitric oxide synthase inhibitor in
all groups. Conchsions: These results indicate that IJT induces cholinergic hypersensitivity
in rat ileallongitudinalsmooth muscle, which is likely to compensate decreased spontaneous
contractile activity.
INTRODUCTION
Ileo-jejunal transposition (UT) involves interposingthe distalileum isoperiStaltically into the proximd jejunum. We have done series of studies on the effects of IJT on the
function of the gastmintestinal tract,1-4 because this operative proceduremight be able to
improve severe diarrhea after restorative totalproctocolectomy for ulcerative colitis or
fmilial.adenomatous・ polyposis..In dogs with intact colons, ITT leads to marked mucosal
hypertfophy・along th色whole small intestine・1,2 wealso found in dogs withintact colons thatIJT delayed gastric emptying withinhibition of postprandialgastric contractions, but srnall
intestinalmotilityand transit was unchanged・3 In dogs with IJTand totalcolectomy, delayed
gastric emptying was observed, but・ measming small intestinalContractile activity was not
feasibleinthis model・4 These changes in IJT appearto be mediated by increases in plasma
concentrations of enteroglucagonand/or peptide YY (PYY) in response to coptact of
endocrine cells in ilealmucosa withundigested chyme・114
Previous studies on gastrointestinal motility reported that changes in small intestinal contractilitywere observed tin vitro in rats after small bowel transplantation which necessitates extrinsicand intrinsic denervation,although globalmotor pattems of small
intestine were notaltered in conscious dogs after in situ neuralisolation・518 Thus IJTmight
alter small intestinalContractility in vitro,althoughglobalmotor pattemsand transit were
unchanged after IJT in dogs withintact colons・ Theaim of the present study was to investigate the effect of IJT on ileallongitudinalcontractile activityin vitro in rats・
A4ATERIALS ANDMETⅡODS
Preparation ofanimals: ProceduresandanimalCare were perfomed according tothe guidelines of血e Animal Care and Use Committee of the Tohoku University.
Sprague-Dawley rats (SLC Co., Tokyo) weighing 250-300g were used inall experiments. Rats were
anesthetized by inhalation of halothane (Fluothane@: Takeda Chemicals C0., Osaka, Japan)and intrapeitonealsodium pentobaribital(Nembutal⑳: Abbott, North Chicago, IL) at the dose
of lminig・ IJT in rats was performed similarly to procedures in dogs・3 Briefly, 15 cm long
ilealsegment (5 land '20 cm proximal to the ileocecalsphincter) was transectedand
isoperistaltically interposed intothe proximal jejunum 10 cm distaltothe ligament of Treitz
by an end-to-end jejunorileostomyandanend-to-end ileoIJeJunOStOmy. Thもremalnlhg ileum
was restored byanend-to-end ileo-ileostomy・Asa・ shamoperated group,・ JeJunOileum was
transectedand reanastomosed atthree sites; 5 cm distalto the ligament of Treitz,and 5and 20
cm proximal tothe ileocecalsphincter, respectively.All rats wereallowed fTree access to water and rat chow from the day of operation onward. Rats were studied 17-20 weeks after IJT (IJT;
N=6)and sham operation (sham; N=5). Rats withoutany surgiCalprocedure which survived
for 17120 Weeks after delivery to our institution served as controls (Control; N=8).
Rccording of contractile activity: A segment of the distalileum (10-15 cm proximalto
the ileocecalsphincter in controland sham,and 15-20 cm distal to the ligament of Treitz in
IJT) was removedand cutalong the mesenteric border in modified Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate
solution (concentrations in mM: NaCl 118.3, KC1 4.7, CaC12 2.5, MgSO4 1.2, KH2PO4 1.2,
NaHCO3 25・0, Calcium disodium edetate 0.26,andglucose l1. I). Eightfull-thickness muscle
bothends of the muscle strips・ The muscle strips were suspended vertically in 20-ml tissue
chambers filled with modified KrebsIRinger bicarbonate solution maintained at 37・50Cand
bubbled with95% 02and 5% C92・ The lower end of the muscle strip was connected to a
fixed plastic 'hook in the chamber, while the upper end was attached to a non-compliant force transducer,therebyallowlng measurement Of isometric force.
Experimental desigtI: After a 90- to 1201minequilibration period with replacement of
the buffer solution in the chamber every 30-40min, each strip was incrementally stretched at
15120min intervals to its optimal1ength (Lo), defined as the length beyond which山地er
stretching did not increase theamplitude of spontaneous activity・5 All subsequent experiments were. performed atthis Lo,and strips that did not show spontaneous activity were not used (lessthan5% of strips evaluated).
Two chambers (two muscle stripsper rat) were used fわr dose-response study to the
cholinerglC agOnist bethanecholand two other chambers for fbrthe adrenerglC agOnist horepinephrine. For the experiments withbethanechol, the lowest dose (lo一一 M) was
administered after taking 5min spontaneous activity as basalbaseline activity. The buffer was
washed 6min later,andthe next higher dose was glVen after a 5-6min equilibration time.
This procedure was repeated until the greatest dose of bethanechol (1014 M) had been given. After recording baseline spontaneous activity in two separate chambers, norepinephrine (10-8- 10-1 M) was administered intothe chamber in a cumulative manner every 6min. Four other
chambers were used to assess the effect of electrical field stimulation (EPS) under
nonadrenergic, noncholinergiC (NANC) conditions produced by phentolamine (5 X IOl6 M),
propranolol (10-5 M),and atropine (1016 M). Square wave currents (amplitude = 30 V; pulse
width = 0.5 msec; stimulus duration; 10 seconds) were delivered every 4-5min,and the
responses to varying frequencies (1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15, 20,and 30 Hz) were studied・ The chamber solution was washed after studies of EPS,and Noarginine monomethyl ester (L-NAME: 5 X
IO'3 M) as well as threeantagonists to produce NANC conditions was administered intothe
four chambers・ Similar・experiments with EPS were repeated 30min later to see the effects of
nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor L-NAME on EPS-induced inhibition of ilealcontractile
activity.
Atth'e conclusion of the experiments, each tissue・was blottedand weighed・
Data analysis・: Integralof force generated was measured for・ 5min in eight chambers at
Lo as spontaneous basalactivity・ Responses to bethanecholand noreplnePhrine were
quantitated by measunng the integralof force for 5min immediately after drug administration・
The integralof force was measured by a computer program.・(MacLab, AD Instrument,
victoria, Australia)and standardizedperminper wet tissue weight of each muscle strip
(g/min-mg tissue). The dose-response curves for bethanecholand norepinephrine were
obtained by expresslng basalcontrol activity as lOO%・ To quantitatethese dose-response curves,the negative log of the equieffective concentration that caused a 200% (ED2..)and 50% (ED5。) response was calculated fわr bethanechol and norepinephrine, respectively・
Spontaneous contractile activities beforeand 30min after admimistration of phentolamine,
propranolol,and atropine were compared to see the effect of NANC conditions on
generated duringthe 10-second stimulusand comparlng this value to the force of baseline
activity per 10 seconds deteminedfor each strip for a 5-min period immediately before
beginnlng EPS. Integralof force ,in response to each frequency was expressed as % when
baseline activity was taken as lOO・ Areas between the verticalline of lOO%andfrequency-response curves were calculated as 'areas of inhibition'to quantitate inhibitory effect of EFS・
All data were expressed as mean土Standard error of the mean(SEM)・
・ Statistical ・comparisons: Mann-Whitney test was used for comparison of 2 groups,and
paired Student's I-test was used to see if producing NANC conditionsaltered spontaneous
activity.
DrugS: Bethanechol chlorideand noreplnePhrine bitartarate were purchased from Sig.ma
ChemiCalCompany, St・ Louis, MO・ Atropine sulfate was kindly donated by Tanabe Seiyaku
Co・, tOsaka・ Phentolamineand propranolol chloride were purchased from Novartis Pharma Co,
Tokyo,and'Zeneca Yakuhin Col ,Tokyo, respectively・ RESULTS
Spontaneous contractile actiyity: Tracings of representative spontaneous activity in
the basalcondition in each group is shown in Figure l・ The integralofforce was decreased in
IJT group (0.16土0.03 g/min-mg tissue) compared to control (0・25土0・02 g/min-mg tissue,
p<0.05), but no statisticaldifference was noted between controland sham (0・21土0・04
g/min-mg tissue) or shamand IJTI
Response to bethamechol and noreplnePhrine: Bethanechol induced a dose-dependent
increase in contractile activityinall three groups (Figtue 2). The dose-response curve in IJT,
however, shifted to the leftcompared tothe other two groups due to tomic increase of the baseline above 10 5 M (Figures 2and 3A). ED200in IJT was significantly greater thancontrol and sham (p<0.05), signifying a lesser concentration of bethanechol to induce 200% response
of contractile activityandthus suggesting a hypersensitivityto bethanechol in IJT (Table l)I NoreplnePhrine dose-dependently inhibited spontaneous contractile activity ln a Similar
manner in three groups (Figure 4),and the dose-response Curves in IJTand sham were identicalto that in control (Figure 3B). ED50 Was not differentamong three groups (Table I)I
・ Respo鮎e tot electrical rleld stimulation: Admimistration of phentolamine, propranolol,
and atropine to produce NANC conditions did notalter spontaneous activity inal1 3 groups
(data not shown). E・FS induced inhibition of spontaneous. activity (Values less than100) at low
bequencies (2-10 Hz)and caused contractions at high frequencies (15-30 H21) in control rats
under basalConditions (Figures 5and 6A). This inhibition observed in lowfrequencies was
reversed inthe presence of L-NAME,andareas of inhibition were decreased in the presence of L-NAME compared to basalcondition (p<0.05, Figures 5and 6A)・ In IJTand sham,
frequency-response curves in basalcondition were simi1arto control,and the effect of L
NAME reversing inhibition at low鉦equencies wasalso noted in these 2 groups (Figures 6B
and6C).
DISCUSSION
We were interested in small intestinal smooth muscle contractility in vitro a氏er IJT,
because itmight bealtered even thoughIJT in dogs did not affect theglobalmotor pattems・
intestinalmotilityand transit in vivo after IJT. We foundthat after IJT basalspontaneous
activitywas reducedand sensitivityto cholinergic agonist bethanechol was increased・
Decreased basalContractile activity suggests the possibility thatthe small intestinaltransit
might be delayed, because mechanicalactivity often correlates with intestinaltransit・9 In dogs
with IJT postprandialgastric but not small intestinalmotility was inhibited,and this inhibition
was considered to be associated with increased plasma level of enteroglucagonand PYY.3 In
rats, IJT increased mucosalweightand DNA cohtent in the transposed ileum,and plasma
level of neurotensin.10 These results indicate that IJTincreases plasma level of peptides
mainly released h)m the ileal・hucosa・ Because those pepti.des inhibit gastrointestinal
contractility or delay transit,ll-13 d¢crease in spontaneous contractile activity i血the present
studymight be secondary to the increase in plasma level ofthosepeptides・
Hypersensitivityor supersensitivity is defined asthe phenomenon in which the dose of
a substance required to produce a given biologicalresponse is less thannormal,and thus the dose-response curve is shifted tothe left.14 sensitivity to acetylcholine is increased up to 100,000 times in skeletalmuscle after selective denervation of motor nerves, whereas increase range from 2- to 30-fold after transection of nerves directly innervating smooth muscle・14 our observation that muscle strips LTrom rats withIJT were 10112 times more sensitive to
bethanechol thanControl, estimatedfromthe difference in ED20.,fu1丘lls this criterion of
hypersensitivty. Previous studies reported extrinsic denervation-associated adrenergic hypersensitivityafter small bowel transplantation in rat ileumwith increased sensitivity to
norepinephrine 12 times higher thancontrol・5・6 This hypersensitivity was considered due to
increase of a血energlC reCeptOrS On the smoo血muscle but not on the enteric neⅣous
system・5・6 Thereare 5 subtypes (Ml-M5)for the muscarimic receptors.15 Bethanechol was
believed to stimulate M2 receptors when muscarinic receptors were classified only into Ml
and M2 in the past・16 M2and M3 receptorsare distributed in the rat ileum,andthe most
abundant receptor isthe M2 while M3 receptorsareminor・17 M2 receptors inhibit adenylate
cyclaseand M3 receptors stimulate phosphoinositide hydroly?is・17Asthere is no specific
agonist f♭r each musCadnic receptor subtype, bethanechol must stimulate both M2 and M3
receptors・ Osinskiand Bass reported active stress generation was increased in response to
bethanechol after extrinsicand myenteric denervation.18 Althoughwe cannot detemine the
mechanism of cholinergic hypersensitivityinduced by IJT (increase in cholinergic receptors
density, increase in the affinity of cholinergic receptors to bethanechol, Or a modification of
the receptor signaling), it is likely that cholinergic hypersensitivity was induced to
compensate d∝reased basal spontaneous contractility. I
EFS induced inhibition of ・contractile activity at low frequencies while it enhanced
contractions at highfrquencies・ Inhibition at lowfrequencies was reversed by a NO synthase
inhibitor L-NAME・ This observation was simi1arinal1 3 groups, suggesting that EFS-inducedinhibition at low frequencies is mediated via NO in normalratsandthat this inhibitory
nitrergic response was not modulated after IJTand shamoperation. These results in control
rats do not connict with those in previous studies in rat ileallongitudinalmuscle.6・19 Although
spontaneous activity was inhibited by NO in jejunallongitudinalmuscle, a NO synthaseby a NO synthase inhibitor, nor direct administration of NO into the tissue chamber did not
inhibit basalspontaneous activity in jejunaland ilealcircularsmooth muscle in rats.21・22 Thus,
the effect of NO or NO synthase inhibitor differs in each site even inthe same species. Results
inthe present study suggestthat the decrease in spontaneous after IJT must not be due to
changes of nitrergic neurons in the enteric nervous system・
血comclusion, IJT decreased spontaneous contractile activity and induced cholimergic
hypersensitivityin rat ileallongitudinalsmooth muscle in vitro・ Cholinergic hypersensitivity
was considered to.be induced to compensate decreased spontaneous contractile activity・
