Effects of Hwangryunhaedok-tang on gastrointestinal motility function in mice

Figure 4 Effects of extract of Hwangryunhaedok-tang on percent intestinal transit rates in normal mice and in the two gastrointestinal motility disorder mouse models. A: ITR% values of normal mice pretreated with HHTE prior to Evans Blue administration (n = 15 for each bar); B: ITR% values of acetic acid (AA)-induced mice induced 30 min before the i.g. administration of Evans blue (n = 9 per bar); C: ITR% values of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced mice induced 2 mo before the i.g. administration of Evans Blue (n = 9). Bars represent mean ± SE. ^aP < 0.05; ^bP < 0.01; ^eP < 0.001. Significantly different from normal controls. PF: Poncirus trifoliate Raf; Lope.: Loperamide; GMDl: Gastrointestinal motility disorder; ITR%: Intestinal transit rates.
