Fig 5. Tension receptor mechanosensitivity, food intake and gastric emptying in TRPV1+/+ and-/- SLD mice.

Fig 5

(A) The response of gastric tension receptors to circular stretch (1–5g) in TRPV1+/+ (●) and TRPV1-/- (○) mice fed a SLD. (B) Gastric half emptying time (t1/2) of a solid meal in TRPV1+/+ (closed bar; N = 10) and TRPV1-/- (open bar; N = 10) mice fed a SLD. (C) Daily food intake in TRPV1+/+ (●; N = 10) and TRPV1-/- (○; N = 10) mice fed a SLD. (D) Stomach content at the end of the 20 week diet period at the point of collection of tissue for experimentation (0900–0930hr) in TRPV1+/+ (closed bar; N = 10) and TRPV1-/- (open bar; N = 10) mice fed a SLD. *** p<0.001 vs TRPV1+/+ mice.
