pubmed:abstractText
Chronic constipation is a common gastrointestinal disorder with limited treatment options. Oral administration of linaclotide, a novel peptide agonist of guanylate cyclase-C receptors, has been shown in animal studies to stimulate intestinal fluid secretion and transit. In Phase 1 studies in healthy human volunteers, linaclotide was well-tolerated, increased bowel movement frequency, and loosened stool consistency.
