Interactions between obestatin and ghrelin on the interval between the activity fronts of the migrating myoelectric complex. Obestatin (1000 pmol kg⁻¹ min⁻¹) and ghrelin (500 pmol kg⁻¹ min⁻¹) were infused for 60 min at, respectively, 15 and 7 μl min⁻¹. When combined, obestatin infusion (2500 pmol kg⁻¹ min⁻¹; 40 μl min⁻¹) was started 10 min before the infusion of ghrelin (500 pmol kg⁻¹ min⁻¹), and both then continued for 60 min. Data are given as mean and s.e.m. (vertical lines); n=7 each; ^*P<0.05 compared to control.
