Abstract |
For exploitation of new antidiarrheal agents to heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) produced by enterotox-
igenic E. coli, we have tested several drugs by rabbit ileal loop assay and obtained some significant
results . L-glutathione (20 mg), P-chloromercuriphenyl sulfonic acid (20 mg) and water heating extract
of Prunus mume (20 mg) reduced LT-mediated intestinal fluid secretion in rabbit ileal loop assay by
92%, 87%, 92% respectively. Maleate, quinacrine HC1 and mixed antioxidant (150 mg) in usual dosage
unduced diarrhea by 32%, 37%, 52% respectively. Berberine sulfate and indomethacin did not showed
any drug effects.
We concluded that L-glutathione and water heating extract of Prunus mume would become
excellent antidiarrheal drug if these agents were enclosed with coating agent digested by intestinal
enzymes. |
