Figure 6. Gastrointestinal and colonic transit.

Figure 6.

A. Whole gut transit of Evans blue dye. After gavage of dye, the time for expulsion of the first blue pellet was longer in tgr5-ko mice than tgr5-wt or tgr5-tg mice, indicating delayed transit. B. Expulsion of a glass bead from the colon. After insertion of a glass bead into the colon, the time for expulsion was less in tgr5-tg mice than in tgr5-wt or tgr5-ko mice, indicating accelerated colonic transit. **P< 0.01, ***P<0.001 to tgr5-wt.
