Core Tip	Colon transit was decreased and oxytocin-induced inhibition of colonic contraction was enhanced in rats with cold water intake. Atosiban and tetrodotoxin inhibited the effect of oxytocin on colonic motility. Cold water intake increased blood concentration of oxytocin and expression of oxytocin receptors in colon. Estradiol regulated blood concentration of oxytocin and oxytocin-induced colonic contraction. The results suggested that cold water intake inhibited colonic motility through oxytocin-oxytocin receptor signaling in the myenteric nervous system pathway, which is estrogen dependent. The estradiol-oxytocin-oxytocin receptor-colonic contractile pathway might be a new therapeutic target for irritable bowel syndrome in females.
