Slow-transit constipation(STC)is a disease characterized by functional gastrointestinal disorder. Common laxatives used in clinical practice against constipation such as Senna have side effects. Enteromorpha(EP)is a common marine alga, and the polysaccharide extracted from EP has been reported possessing anti-cancer and anti-inflammation effects. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of EP and Polysaccharides from Enteromorpha (PEP) on loperamide induced constipated mice model and illustrating mechanism of action. We investigated the effect of EP and PEP on fecal water content, defecation frequency and gastrointestinal transit (GI) time of loperamide-induced STC mice. In addition, serum Nitric Oxide (NO) content and vasoactive intestinal peptide receptor1 (VIPR1) as well as serotonin receptor (5-HT₄) expression in the distal colon were analyzed. Furthermore, we determined the role of EP and PEP on microbiota distribution using stool genomic 16S rRNA sequencing. EP and PEP significantly enhanced intestinal motility function, and alleviated constipation associated intestinal inflammation. Moreover, EP and PEP significantly decreased serum NO concentration, down-regulated VIPR1 expression and up-regulated 5-HT₄ expression in distal colon. Genomic stool DNA MiSeq Sequencing Analysis of microbiota community structures and distribution revealed that intestinal microecological changes caused by constipation recovered after both EP and PEP treatment. Our results indicate that EP and PEP are potent natural products which could be suggested in constipation therapy strategies.
