Abstract
ⶠAbdominal surgery-induced decreased gastric emptying is prevented by cold exposure. ⶠTRH analog intracisternally also prevents postoperative gastric ileus. ⶠExposure to cold increases plasma acyl (AG) and desacyl ghrelin (DAG) levels. ⶠCold exposure reverses the abdominal surgery-induced decrease of plasma AG and DAG. ⶠTRH activation by cold prevents surgery-induced ileus likely via releasing AG/DAG.
