The authors review the pathophysiologic mechanisms involved in bowel motility and in its alterations. Several symptoms are present in a form of bowel disease usually defined as "irritable bowel", in which a lot of polymorphic aspects appear to coincide. The first part of the paper is concerned with the symptoms and suggested pathophysiology and pathogenesis of the disorder while the latter part deals with the non-pharmacologic and pharmacologic treatment options.

Pre-clinical studies indicate that the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)4 receptor may be involved in the pathophysiology of irritable bowel syndrome and that antagonism of this receptor may be an effective therapeutic strategy.. To investigate the effects of SB-207266-A, a selective 5-HT4 receptor antagonist on rectal sensitivity and small bowel transit in patients with irritable bowel syndrome.. Eighteen patients with diarrhoea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome and a history of increased rectal sensitivity were randomized to receive either SB-207266-A (20 mg) or placebo for 10 days. Following a washout period, patients were then crossed over to receive the alternative therapy for 10 days. Rectal sensitivity and orocaecal transit time were assessed on day 10 of each treatment period. In addition, patients were asked whether they had experienced any changes in their symptoms.. Fifteen patients completed the study. SB-207266-A significantly increased orocaecal transit time towards normal (placebo: 5.3 h (4.0-7.2 h), mean (IQR) vs. SB-207266-A: 6.5 h (4.8-8.0 h); P=0.027) and tended to decrease rectal sensitivity (volume to discomfort 89 mL (60-150 mL), geometric mean (IQR) vs. 107 mL (75-150 mL); P=0.134). Eleven out of 15 patients reported symptomatic improvements with SB-207266-A but none with placebo. SB-207266-A was well tolerated.. Our results support a role for the 5-HT4 receptor in the pathophysiology of irritable bowel syndrome and suggest that the selective 5-HT4 antagonist, SB-207266-A, is worthy of further evaluation in this disorder.

Cisapride improves symptoms in patients with idiopathic constipation. This trial compares the effect of cisapride with that of placebo in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and constipation.. Seventy patients were randomized to 12 weeks' treatment with 5 mg cisapride three times daily or placebo in a double-blind trial. The dose could be doubled after 4 weeks in patients without satisfactory improvement. The patients scored their symptoms on a 100-mm visual analogue scale (VAS) (0 = best, 100 = worst), and the investigators evaluated the symptomatic effect.. The dose was doubled in 17 and 23 patients in the cisapride and placebo groups, respectively, after 4 weeks. The patients' mean VAS score for global evaluation of IBS symptoms in the cisapride and placebo groups was 73 and 71 mm, respectively, at the start of treatment and 47 and 41 mm at the end. The difference between cisapride and placebo at the end was 6 mm in favour of placebo (95% confidence interval (CI), -6, 18) (NS). The investigators evaluated the effect as good or excellent in 39.2% and 58.8% in the cisapride and placebo groups, respectively. The difference in favour of placebo was 19.5% (95% CI, -5, 44) (NS). Nor were any statistically significant differences seen between cisapride and placebo in the other effect factors.. The trial seems to exclude a clinically significant effect of 15-30 mg cisapride daily in patients with IBS and constipation during a 12-week treatment period.

Irritable bowel syndrome is a common cause of abdominal pain and discomfort and may be related to disordered gastrointestinal motility. Our aim was to assess the effects of long-term treatment with a prokinetic agent, cisapride, on postprandial jejunal motility and symptoms in the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).. Thirty-eight patients with IBS (constipation-predominant, n = 17; diarrhoea-predominant, n = 21) underwent 24-h ambulatory jejunal manometry before and after 12 week's treatment [cisapride, 5 mg three times daily (n = 19) or placebo (n = 19)].. In diarrhoea-predominant patients significant differences in contraction characteristics were observed between the cisapride and placebo groups. In cisapride-treated diarrhoea-predominant patients the mean contraction amplitude was higher (29.3 +/- 3.2 versus 24.9 +/- 2.6 mm Hg, cisapride versus placebo (P < 0.001); pretreatment, 25.7 +/- 6.0 mm Hg), the mean contraction duration longer (3.4 +/- 0.2 versus 3.0 +/- 0.2 sec, cisapride versus placebo (P < 0.001); pretreatment, 3.1 +/- 0.5 sec), and the mean contraction frequency lower (2.0 +/- 0.2 versus 2.5 +/- 0.4 cont./min, cisapride versus placebo (P < 0.001); pretreatment, 2.5 +/- 1.1 cont./min] than patients treated with placebo. No significant differences in jejunal motility were found in the constipation-predominant IBS group. Symptoms were assessed by using a visual analogue scale before and after treatment. Symptom scores relating to the severity of constipation were lower in cisapride-treated constipation-predominant IBS patients [score, 54 +/- 5 versus 67 +/- 14 mm, cisapride versus placebo (P < 0.05); pretreatment, 62 +/- 19 mm]. Diarrhoea-predominant IBS patients had a higher pain score after cisapride therapy [score, 55 +/- 15 versus 34 +/- 12 mm, cisapride versus placebo (P < 0.05); pretreatment, 67 +/- 19 mm].. Cisapride affects jejunal contraction characteristics and some symptoms in IBS.

To study the effect of prokinetic treatment with cisapride in patients with constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome.. Ninety-six patients were randomly assigned to treatment with either cisapride 5 mg three times daily or placebo three times daily for a period of 12 weeks. The dosage could be doubled after 4 weeks. Presence of the target symptoms abdominal pain, constipation and abdominal bloating was an obligatory criterion for inclusion in the study.. After 12 weeks of treatment, 31%, 56% and 27% of the cisapride treated patients were found to be without the three target symptoms (P < 0.05). The corresponding percentages for the placebo-treated patients were 31%, 58% and 19%, respectively, (P < 0.05). The visual analogue scale (VAS) symptom scores assessed by the patients for global rating of bowel disease, general well-being and frequency of stool passage improved significantly within each treatment group (P < 0.05). Evaluation of efficacy parameters using intention-to-treat analysis showed no statistically significant differences between the groups. Using efficacy analysis, the difficulty of stool passage showed a significantly higher improvement with cisapride (P < or = 0.05).. These results indicate that cisapride is not superior to placebo in the treatment of constipation and abdominal discomfort as components of irritable bowel syndrome. It may, however, be of use in improving the difficulty of stool passage.

Zamifenacin is a new potent gut M3 selective muscarinic antagonist developed for possible use in irritable bowel syndrome.. In this multicentre, double-blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled study, the effect of a single dose of zamifenacin 10 mg or 40 mg on both fasting (30 min) and fed (60 min) colonic motor activity was assessed in 36 patients with irritable bowel syndrome (aged 25-68 years; 19 male). Colonic motility was recorded using a five-channel solid-state catheter introduced by colonoscopy to a depth of 35 cm in an unprepared colon.. Zamifenacin 40 mg profoundly reduced colonic motility, particularly after the meal (P < 0.05). This was reflected by a significant reduction in the mean amplitude of contractions, number of contractions, percentage duration of contractions, activity index and the motility index (P < 0.05). A smaller reduction in all the motility parameters was obtained with 10 mg zamifenacin, but these changes were not statistically significant. Three patients each on placebo and zamifenacin reported side-effects, but these were mild and transient.. A single 40 mg dose of zamifenacin significantly reduces colonic motility in irritable bowel syndrome patients without significant antimuscarinic effects. The results of this study confirm that the concept of developing selective antimuscarinic agents may be a promising approach to the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome. Not only would such compounds benefit from not having the usual side-effects of anticholinergics but they might also offer much more in the way of dose flexibility.

Cisapride has been reported to improve symptoms in patients with constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome.. To compare the effects of a 24-h oral dose regimen of cisapride on interdigestive and post-prandial small bowel motor activity in irritable bowel syndrome patients with predominant constipation, irritable bowel syndrome patients with predominant diarrhoea and healthy subjects.. In 12 irritable bowel syndrome patients (11 females, aged 44 +/- 12 years)--constipation-predominant (irritable bowel syndrome-C, n = 5) and diarrhoea-predominant (irritable bowel syndrome-D, n = 7)--and six healthy subjects, small bowel motor activity was continuously recorded using an ambulatory technique over a 48-h period. Subjects received, in single-blind fashion, placebo tablets q.d.s. in the first 24 h then cisapride 10 mg q.d.s. in the second 24 h. Additional control groups were 13 healthy subjects (eight females, aged 39 +/- 13 years) and 10 irritable bowel syndrome patients (10 females, aged 49 +/- 14 years) who were studied in identical fashion but who did not receive cisapride.. Cisapride increased migrating motor complex phase 2 motility index in both irritable bowel syndrome-D (P < 0.01) and irritable bowel syndrome-C (P < 0.05) patients, as well as in healthy subjects (P < 0.01). An increase in fasting discrete clustered contractions occurred in irritable bowel syndrome-D patients (P < 0.001) and in healthy subjects (P < 0.01), but not in irritable bowel syndrome-C patients; the proportion of discrete clustered contractions that were propagated, however, increased only in irritable bowel syndrome-D patients (P < 0.001). In addition, cisapride resulted in an increase in post-prandial motility index in irritable bowel syndrome patients (P < 0.05). Such motor alterations were not observed during the 48-h recording period in the healthy or irritable bowel syndrome patient control groups who did not receive cisapride.. Oral cisapride influences interdigestive and post-prandial small bowel motor activity in both irritable bowel syndrome patients and healthy subjects; the effects of cisapride may be more marked in patients with predominant diarrhoea than in patients with predominant constipation.

The effects of prokinetic treatment with cisapride in patients with constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) were evaluated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Sixty-nine IBS patients were assigned to a 12-week treatment with either 5 mg cisapride or placebo t.i.d.; this dosage could be changed if necessary. The mean weekly number of days on which a stool was passed in the cisapride and placebo group increased to 5.3 and 4.4 (p less than 0.05) during weeks 8-12 of treatment, and the number of days with stools of normal consistency increased to 3.5 and 1.9 (p less than 0.05), respectively. At week 12, the reduction in severity and frequency scores for abdominal pain was significantly greater (p less than or equal to 0.05) in the cisapride group (60 and 61%) than in the placebo group (40 and 32%), as it was for abdominal distension (p less than 0.05). Cisapride tended to be better than placebo in diminishing flatulence. In 71% versus 39% of the patients the overall rating for the response to treatment was good or excellent at week 12. Cisapride was well tolerated. These results suggest that the drug will be useful for the management of constipation-predominant IBS.

The effects of loperamide in patients with IBS (all had diarrhoea as a main symptom) were studied in a double-blind placebo controlled trial. Subjective overall response stool consistency and six individual symptoms (urgency, pain, frequency, flatulence, borborygmi and painful propulsions) were studied over a 13 week long treatment period. Twenty-one patients out of 25 completed the trial, 11 in the loperamide group and 10 in the placebo group. A significant advantage for loperamide was found for stool consistency (p less than 0.001), pain (p less than 0.02) and urgency (p less than 0.05). Subjective overall response was also significantly better in the loperamide group (p less than 0.03). Self-titration of dose and administration in a single nightly dose was safe and efficient.

The effect of loperamide was investigated in a double-blind, placebo-controlled study in 60 patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Active treatment was given in low dosage (4 mg nocte). The effect of treatment was assessed in clinical subgroups. In a group of patients with painless diarrhoea (n = 16) there was a highly significant improvement in stool frequency and consistency. In a group with alternating bowel habits and abdominal pain (n = 21) there was also a statistically significant improvement in stool frequency and consistency as well as significantly fewer painful days during loperamide treatment. Patients with alternating bowel habits and no pain (n = 12) experienced no symptomatic improvement, and patients with constipation (n = 9) generally felt worse on loperamide. No side effects were encountered. It is concluded that loperamide can be considered an alternative symptomatic treatment in some IBS patients whose main symptoms are painless diarrhoea or alternating bowel habits associated with abdominal pain.

Symptom scores, stool data, and the transit of a standard, solid meal were measured in 28 patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) during baseline conditions and after five weeks of treatment with placebo and loperamide, given as a flexible dosage regime in the form of a double-blind, cross-over trial. All patients had undergone a comprehensive series of diagnostic investigations and had failed to respond to dietary supplementation with coarse wheat bran (10-30 g daily). Loperamide treatment accelerated gastric emptying, compared with placebo (1.2 +/- 0.1 vs 1.5 +/- 0.1 hr; P less than 0.001) and delayed both small bowel (6.2 +/- 0.3 vs 4.3 +/- 0.3 hr; P less than 0.001) and whole gut transit (56 +/- 5 vs 42 +/- 4 hr; P less than 0.01). Eighteen patients said they felt better taking loperamide compared with placebo and, at follow up, 15 of these patients remained satisfied with the effects of the drug. Most symptoms improved significantly on placebo compared with the baseline period, but three of these [diarrhea (P less than 0.01), urgency (P less than 0.01) and borborygmi (P less than 0.05)] showed a further significant improvement on loperamide. Improvement in diarrhea was not associated with any change in stool weight but was associated with reductions in stool frequency (P less than 0.001), passage of unformed stools (P less than 0.01), and incidence of urgency (P less than 0.001). Urgency was the only symptom that was significantly more common in the success group, compared with the group who did not feel better on loperamide.

An evaluation was carried out of the effect of domperidone on gastro-intestinal symptoms in patients with irritable bowel syndrome. Ninety-eight patients were included; 32 in an open pilot study and 66 in a double-blind placebo-controlled study. Domperidone was taken at a dosage of 10 mg tablets 4-times daily. At the end of the 4-week treatment, symptoms had disappeared or were at least markedly improved in about 80% of the domperidone-treated patients. Significant superiority of domperidone to the placebo was observed for the symptom clusters 'post-prandial flatulence', 'abdominal pain' and 'abnormal bowel habit'. No side-effects were reported.

Fifteen patients (20 to 66 years) with long-standing chronic diarrhea of varying etiology were selected for an open trial of loperamide 2 mg capsules. The optimal daily dose for substantial reduction of the diarrhea ranged from two to seven capsules. Eleven patients showed a significant improvement in stool consistency and stool frequency, and a decrease of abdominal cramps. Loperamide appeared to be ineffective in two patients with cholerrheic diarrhea, and in one patient with laxative-induced diarrhea, and in one patient with diarrhea of unknown etiology. The eleven successfully treated patients then entered a double-blind placebo-controlled trial for ten days or until relapse, the daily dose being identical to the optimal one previously determined in the open phase. The investigator was able to guess the code correctly in ten out of eleven cases. Twenty ileostomy patients (ages 25 to 73 years) volunteered for the evaluation of the inhibitory activity on small intestinal peristalsis by loperamide in a double-blind placebo-controlled cross-over study. Mean daily ileostomy output decreased by 22% in the loperamide period, as compared with the drug-free study phase (P less than 0.001). Of the 20 patients, 16 were able to guess their code correctly, whereas four were uncertain, although their fecal weights were lower with loperamide. Many patients noticed an increased urinary production and experienced an improvement in their ileostomy care during loperamide treatment. Because of its effectiveness, its low side-effect liability and its lack of toxicity, loperamide is considered a promising drug in the symptomatic treatment of chronic diarrhea, and as a reliable agent in the treatment of ileostomy patients.

The potent neurokinin receptor 1 (NK1) antagonist SR-140333 has previously been shown to reduce castor oil-induced secretion in animal models. The importance of tachykinins in neuroimmune control of secretion and the effect of SR-140333 on key points in this pathway were elucidated in the present study to determine the type of intestinal dysfunction best targeted by this antagonist. Rat colonic secretion and substance P (SP) release were determined in vitro with the use of Ussing chamber and enzyme immunoassay techniques. NK1 receptors played a secretory role as receptor agonists stimulated secretion and SR-140333 antagonized the response to SP response (pK(b) = 9.2). Sensory fiber stimulation released SP and evoked a large secretion that was reduced by 69% in the presence of SR-140333 (10 nM). Likewise, mastocytes also released SP. The subsequent secretory response was reduced by 43% in the presence of SR-140333 (50 nM). SP was also released from granulocytes; however, this did not cause secretion. Functional NK3 receptors were present in the colon as senktide stimulated secretion, an effect that was increased during stress. We conclude that NK3 receptors may play a role in stress-related disorders, whereas NK1 receptors are more important in mast cell/afferent-mediated secretion.

Tachykinins participate in somatic pain and intestinal motility control. The role of tachykinin receptors in both colonic motor disturbances and visceral pain (abdominal contractions as an index of visceral pain) induced by rectal distension were investigated.. Rats were surgically prepared with electrodes implanted on the proximal colon and the abdominal striated muscles. Catheters were implanted in lateral ventricles of the brain. Rectal distension was performed by inflation of a balloon (0.1-1.6 mL) rectally inserted. CP-96,345 and RP-67,580 (neurokinin [NK] 1 antagonists) and SR-48,968 (NK2 antagonist) were injected intraperitoneally (IP) or intracerebroventricularly (ICV) 20 minutes before distension. GR-73,632 and GR-64,639 (NK1, NK2 agonists) were infused intravenously at 0.15 micrograms.kg-1.min-1.. Rectal distension evoked a significant inhibition of colonic motility and an increase in abdominal contractions. CP-96,345 injected ICV (0.2-0.8 mg/kg) or IP (5-10 mg/kg) and RP-67,580 (0.2 mg/kg IP) eliminated distension-induced colonic inhibition but did not affect abdominal response. SR-48,968 did not affect colonic response but significantly reduced visceral pain (0.4, 0.8 mg/kg ICV: 5-10 mg/kg IP). GR-73,632 enhanced the rectal distension-induced colonic inhibition, whereas GR-64,349 induced a greater abdominal response.. NK1 receptors mediate the rectocolonic inhibitory reflex, whereas NK2 receptors participate in visceral pain; both responses involve central structures.
