The effects of cisapride on the topography of oesophageal peristalsis

Alimentary Pharmacology & Therapeutics
A Staiano, R E Clouse

Abstract

Topographic analysis of oesophageal motility in humans demonstrates sequential pressure regions in the peristaltic wave. This study was designed to see if cisapride preferentially affects any of the topographic regions. Fifteen asymptomatic volunteers received placebo, 10 mg or 20 mg of cisapride orally in a double-blind, single-dose trial. Topographic plots of oesophageal peristalsis through the oesophageal body and lower sphincter were analysed before and after drug administration for each subject. Four sequential contraction segments through the oesophageal body and lower sphincter, separated by amplitude troughs, were again identified on contour plots in normal subjects. Dose-related increases from cisapride were found in the contraction volume of the first smooth-muscle segment (P < 0.0001), in total contraction volume (P = 0.005) and in the amplitude of the trough separating smooth-muscle segments of the oesophageal body (P = 0.005). Within the distal smooth-muscle segment, significant drug effects were seen only in the cephalad half (P = 0.03). Significant effects on conventional manometric parameters could not be demonstrated. Cisapride enhances contraction in the proximal smooth-muscle segment of the oesophageal body a...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
