ABSTRACT

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Shengmai-san andPyungwi-san, a herbal product used in traditional Chinese medicine, on gastrointestinal (GI)motility in mice. Methods: The in vivo effects of Shengmai-san and Pyungwi-san on GI motility were investigatedby measuring the intestinal transit rates (ITRs) using Evans blue in normal mice and in mice withexperimentally induced GI motility dysfunction (GMD). GMD was induced by injecting acetic acidor streptozotocin intraperitoneally. Results: In normal Institute of Cancer Research mice, ITRs were significantly and dosedependentlyincreased by Shengmaisan (0.01∼1 g/kg) and Pyungwi-san (0.01∼1 g/kg). TheITRs of acetic acid induced peritoneal irritation model and streptozotocin-induced diabetic modelmice were significantly reduced compared to normal mice, and these reductions were significantlyand dose-dependently inhibited by Shengmai-san (0.01∼1 g/kg) and Pyungwi-san (0.01∼1g/kg). Conclusions: These results suggest that both Shengmai-san and Pyungwi-san are a goodcandidate for the development of a prokinetic agent that may prevent or alleviate GMD
