Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common functional gastro-intestinal disorder characterized by intractable chronic abdominal pain. In this study, we examined the possible spinal mechanisms underlying colonic hypersensitivity (CHS) using a non-inflammatory rat model of IBS induced by rectal enemas of butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid. We...
