Résumé

STW 5 is a combination of nine medicinal herbal extracts and used to treat functional gastrointestinal disorders including functional dyspepsia. It has a region-specific effect by relaxing the proximal and contracting the distal stomach. The research combination STW 5-II (Iberogast In vitro circular and longitudinal muscle tone and contractility were recorded from guinea pig gastric fundus and antrum with isometric force transducers. STW 5-II decreased concentration-dependently (64-512 µg/ml) the tone of circular and longitudinal muscle strips from the fundus. In contrast, STW 5-II increased concentration-dependently contraction amplitude in antral circular and longitudinal muscle. The effects were region-dependent but comparable in the two muscle layers. Application of 512 µg STW 5 or STW 5-II revealed comparable effects in the fundus and antrum circular and longitudinal muscle strips. STW 5-II had a region-specific effect and relaxed the proximal stomach but increased the contractility in the antrum. It was as effective as STW 5 which may explain its comparable clinical effects in treating functional dyspepsia. Impaired accommodation may be normalized through relaxation of the fundus, while the motility-promoting effects leading to an increase in antral motility may activate the gastric pump.

BACKGROUND
STW 5 is a combination of nine medicinal herbal extracts and used to treat functional gastrointestinal disorders including functional dyspepsia. It has a region-specific effect by relaxing the proximal and contracting the distal stomach. The research combination STW 5-II (Iberogast
METHODS
In vitro circular and longitudinal muscle tone and contractility were recorded from guinea pig gastric fundus and antrum with isometric force transducers.
KEY RESULTS
STW 5-II decreased concentration-dependently (64-512 µg/ml) the tone of circular and longitudinal muscle strips from the fundus. In contrast, STW 5-II increased concentration-dependently contraction amplitude in antral circular and longitudinal muscle. The effects were region-dependent but comparable in the two muscle layers. Application of 512 µg STW 5 or STW 5-II revealed comparable effects in the fundus and antrum circular and longitudinal muscle strips.
CONCLUSIONS AND INTERFERENCES
STW 5-II had a region-specific effect and relaxed the proximal stomach but increased the contractility in the antrum. It was as effective as STW 5 which may explain its comparable clinical effects in treating functional dyspepsia. Impaired accommodation may be normalized through relaxation of the fundus, while the motility-promoting effects leading to an increase in antral motility may activate the gastric pump.
