Electroacupuncture at ST25 Inhibits Cisapride-Induced Gastric Motility in an Intensity-Dependent Manner

Figure 3

Gastric motility in response to EAS at ST25 with different intensities in the three cisapride treatment groups. (a) Representative traces of alterations in gastric contractions induced by different intensities of EA at ST25 in Group 1. (b) Intensity-response relationship between EAS intensity (mA) and the effect on cisapride-induced gastric motility (0.2 mg/kg). (c) Representative traces of alterations in gastric contractions induced by different intensities of EA at ST25 in Group 2. (d) Intensity-response relationship between EAS intensity (mA) and the effect on cisapride-induced gastric motility (0.02 mg/kg). (e) Representative traces of alterations of gastric contractions induced by different intensities of EA at ST25 in Group 3. (f) Intensity-response relationship between EAS intensity (mA) and the effect on cisapride-induced gastric motility (0.002 mg/kg).
