Modifications of Capsaicin-Sensitive Neurons in Isolated Guinea Pig Ileum by [6]-Gingerol and Lafutidine
A segment of guinea pig ileum was used to confirm the hypothesis that [6]-gingerol and lafutidine interact with capsaicin-sensitive neurons. Addition of 30 and 100 μM [6]-gingerol (a pungent constituent of ginger) induced contraction of the ileum immediately. Like capsaicin, [6]-gingerol-induced con...
