Twenty guinea pigs were used to study the effects of Cassia italica leaves and pods extracts on intestinal motricity in vitro. The results obtained showed that the plant stimulate intestinal contractions with dose-dependent relation. Moreover, Cassia italica contractile activity was comparable to the acetylcholine one and was inhibited by atropine. According to these results, Cassia italica purgative activity is supported at least, by it's stimulating effect on intestinal motricity.
选用20只豚鼠研究意大利决明叶子和豆荚提取物对体外肠动力的影响。所得结果表明，该植物能刺激肠道收缩，且呈剂量依赖性关系。此外，意大利决明的收缩活性与乙酰胆碱相当，并被阿托品抑制。根据这些结果，意大利决明的泻下活性至少部分是由其对肠动力的刺激作用所支持的。
