Rifaximin Improves Visceral Hyperalgesia via TRPV1 by Modulating Intestinal Flora in the Water Avoidance Stressed Rat

Figure 7

The EMG activities, changes of TRPV1, and the motility of the isolated ileum were detected in recipient mice after fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). The EMG activities of visceromotor response to colorectal distension (a). Quantification of TRPV1 IR labelling intensity (b). Relative quantification for western blot analysis (c). Data are expressed as density normalized to β-actin. The contractile amplitude and frequency of isolated ileum smooth muscle of rats when it was administrated with different volumes of faecal suspension (d, e). (, , ).
