Ex vivo motility in the base of the rabbit caecum and its associated structures: an electrophysiological and spatiotemporal analysis

Résumé

We examined the coordination between contractile events at different sites in the basal portion of the rabbit caecum and its associated structures that were identified by electrophysiological recordings with simultaneous one-dimensional, and a novel two-dimensional, spatiotemporal mapping technique. The findings of this work provide evidence that the caecum and proximal colon/ampulla coli act reflexly to augment colonic outflow when the caecum is distended and mass peristalsis instituted, the action of the latter overriding the inherent rhythm and direction of haustral propagation in the adjacent portion of the proximal colon but not in the terminal ileum. Further, the findings suggest that the action of the sacculus rotundus may result from its distension with chyme by ileal peristalsis and that the subsequent propagation of contraction along the basal wall of the caecum towards the colon may be augmented by this local distension.
