Physiological effects of endogenous CCK on distal colon motility.
Distal colon motility was investigated in 14 normal subjects, before and after a cholecystokinetic test meal. Increases (4 cases) decreases (5 cases), and no changes (5 cases) of distal colon motility, were registered. Our results strongly suggest that the autonomic nervous system status interferes with the physiological action of CCK.
