Effects of the β-eudesmol administration route on GVNA. (A) Representative recordings of GVNA in pylorus ligated rats administered 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) or β-eudesmol (5 ppb) containing 0.5% CMC water by oral administration (p.o.). (B,C) Effects of oral administration (p.o.) of β-eudesmol in pylorus ligated rats (n = 5). (D) Representative recordings of GVNA in pylorus ligated rats administered 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) or β-eudesmol (5 ppb) containing 0.5% CMC water by intraduodenal administration (d.u.). (E,F) Effects intraduodenal administration (d.u.) of β-eudesmol in pylorus ligated rats (n = 5). Values are means ± SEM. Statistical differences were analyzed by the Mann-Whitney U test. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01. CTL, control; β-EUD, β -eudesmol.
