Objective: To study the effect of Semen Litchi fulvosus YQ Lee on the gastrointestinal function of animals. Methods:
The effect of Semen Litchi fulvosus YQ Lee on gastric emptying and intestinal propulsion of mice, as well as the excitability of isolated ileum muscle of guinea pig were determined. Results: Semen Litchi fulvosus YQ Lee could significantly inhibit the gastric emptying and small intestinal propulsion on mice with dose-dependent manner. In addition, Semen Litchi fulvosus YQ Lee could obviously inhibit the excitability of ileum induced by acetylcholine, histamine and BaCl2 in vitro. Conclusion: Semen Litchi fulvosus YQ Lee could restrain the gastrointestinal motor function on mice and guinea pig.
