The cholinergic anti ‐inflammatory pathway revisited
Abstract Inflammatory bowel disease negatively affects the quality of life of millions of patients around the world. Although the precise etiology of the disease remains elusive, aberrant immune system activation is an underlying cause. As such, therapies that selectively inhibit immune cell activation without broad immunosuppression are desired. Inhibition of immune cell activation preventing pro‐inflammatory cytokine production through neural stimulation has emerged as one such treatment. These therapeutics are based on the discovery of the cholinergic anti‐inflammatory pathway, a reflex arc that induces efferent vag...

bis ‐(p‐hydroxyphenyl)‐pyridyl‐2‐methane (BHPM)—the active metabolite of the laxatives bisacodyl and sodium picosulfate—enhances contractility and secretion in human intestine in vitro
Conclusions and InterferencesBHPM enhanced mucosal secretion and muscle contractility. Results suggested that the laxative effect of BHPM was a consequence of the increase in muscle tone as well as an increased K+ secretion when acting luminally and a nerve‐driven Cl− and HCO3− secretion once acting basolaterally after absorption. We identified the action of bis‐(p‐hydroxyphenyl)‐pyridyl‐2‐methane (BHPM), the active metabolite of the laxatives bisacodyl and sodium picosulfate, in human intestinal samples. BHPM increased muscle tone in small and large intestine. It enhanced K+ secretion when acting lumin...
