| Research Abstract |
In rat models those underwent rectal transection and anastomosis simulating rectal cancer surgery, effects of a 5-HT_4 receptor agonist, mosapride citrate on enteric neural regeneration and neurogenesis were investigated. Two weeks after administration of mosapride, enteric nerves dissected by the surgery were regenerated and connected at the anastomosis and enteric new neurons were observed at the granulation tissue formed during the injury-curing processes. A 5-HT_4 receptor blocker antagonized these effects, indicating that the effect of mosapride is mediated via 5-HT_4 receptor
