Inhibitory reflexes in the internal anal sphincter (IAS) are controlled by inhibitory nonadrenergic, noncholinergic innervation (i-NANC). We investigated the roles of 3 different neurohumoral agonists as possible i-NANC neurotransmitters: carbon monoxide (CO), nitric oxide (NO), and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP).
