Figure 1. Effects of taurine on the contractile amplitude of isolated jejunal segments. Representative traces and statistical analysis (n=6) of taurine-induced effects on the contractile amplitude of isolated jejunal segments in the normal contractile state (NCS, control). The contractile amplitude in NCS is set to 100%; the effects of taurine on the contractile amplitude are the relative values compared with NCS. *P<0.05 vs the contractile amplitude in NCS before taurine administration (one-way ANOVA).
