Effects of Hwangryunhaedok-tang on gastrointestinal motility function in mice

Figure 5 Effects of Gardeniae Fructus and Scutellariae Radix on percent intestinal transit rates in normal mice and in the two gastrointestinal motility disorder mouse models. A: ITR% values of (1) normal mice and (2) acetic acid (AA)-induced and (3) streptozotocin (STZ)-induced mice pretreated with GF prior to Evans Blue administration (n = 10 for each bar); B: ITR% values of (1) normal, (2) acetic acid (AA)-induced, and (3) streptozotocin (STZ)-induced mouse models pretreated with SR prior to Evans Blue administration (n = 10). Bars represent mean ± SE. ^bP < 0.01, ^eP < 0.001. Significantly different from normal controls. PF: Poncirus trifoliata Raf; GF: Gardeniae Fructus; SR: Scutellariae Radix; GMDl: Gastrointestinal motility disorder; ITR%: Intestinal transit rates.
