Effect of sex steroids on colonic distension-induced delay of gastric emptying in rats

Background and Aim:  The objective of the present study was to examine the effect of gonadal hormones on gastric motor response to non‐noxious and noxious stimuli of colonic distension. Methods:  Male Wistar albino rats were used. Under ketamine anesthesia some rats underwent castration (n = 24), wh...

Zusammenfassung:Background and Aim:  The objective of the present study was to examine the effect of gonadal hormones on gastric motor response to non‐noxious and noxious stimuli of colonic distension. Methods:  Male Wistar albino rats were used. Under ketamine anesthesia some rats underwent castration (n = 24), while the rest of the rats were sham‐operated (n = 67) and divided into different groups (n = 7–8 per group). On the 15th day of surgery, liquid gastric emptying studies were commenced. Results:  Non‐noxious (P
