Participation of 5-HT3, 5-HT4, and nicotinic receptors in the peristaltic reflex of guinea pig distal colon.
TLDR
The data are consistent with the idea that these receptors are arranged in parallel in the neural pathways that mediate the peristaltic reflex in the distal colon and suggest that 5-HT3, 5- HT4, and nicotinic receptors participate in the initiation and/or propagation of the peristsaltic Reflex.

Molecular identification and pharmacological characterization of adenosine receptors in the guinea‐pig colon
TLDR
The hypothesis that adenosine may mediate relaxation through two different inhibitory receptor subtypes; A1 receptors on the enteric neuron and A2B receptor on the smooth muscle in the guinea‐pig distal colon is proposed.

Non-Pungent Capsaicin Analogs (Capsinoids) Increase Metabolic Rate and Enhance Thermogenesis via Gastrointestinal TRPV1 in Mice
TLDR
It is suggested here that capsinoids increase energy expenditure in wild-type mice, but not in transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) knockout mice, implying that caps inoids increaseEnergy expenditure via TRPV2, a critical target for capsinoid to enhance energy expenditure.

Saireito (TJ-114), a Japanese Traditional Herbal Medicine, Reduces 5-Fluorouracil-Induced Intestinal Mucositis in Mice by Inhibiting Cytokine-Mediated Apoptosis in Intestinal Crypt Cells
TLDR
Results suggest that saireito attenuates 5-FU-induced intestinal mucositis, which may come from the reduction of apoptotic and caspase-3-activated cells in the intestinal crypt via suppression of the up-regulation of inflammatory cytokines.

Nicotine suppresses acute colitis and colonic tumorigenesis associated with chronic colitis in mice.
TLDR
It is presumed that nicotine downregulates the expression of inflammatory mediators such as IL-6/Stat3 and TNF-α, thereby reducing the colonic tumorigenesis associated with chronic colitis.

Effect of resveratrol on Helicobacter pylori-induced interleukin-8 secretion, reactive oxygen species generation and morphological changes in human gastric epithelial cells.
TLDR
Evaluating the effect of resveratrol on the induction of IL-8, ROS and hummingbird morphology in H. pylori-infected gastric epithelial cells found it to be a potential candidate against various H.pylori related gastric pathogenic processes.
