The effect of capsaicin, a pungent ingredient in capsicum fruit, upon gastric acid secretion
and mucosal blood flow was assessed in the anesthetized rat. At each 15 minute interval …

1 This study investigated the effects of intragastric capsaicin on acid output, clearance of
aniline, potential difference, and morphology of the mucosa in the rat stomach. The …

The effects of capsaicin and a crude extract of Capsicum on intestinal glucose absorption
have been studied in vitro. Glucose absorption in the rat jejunum was slightly stimulated by …

Gastric mucosal blood flow (GMBF) was measured in the ex vivo stom achs of anesthetized
rats simultaneously with mean arterial blood pressure (MBP), luminal pH and transmucosal …

Although the direct inhibitory effect of small dose of capsaicin on gastric secretory responses
was proved in animal observations, the role of capsaicin-sensitive afferent nerves (CSAN) …

The effects of capsaicin on stress ulcer formation, plasma corticosterone levels and gastric
acid secretion were examined in rats. Capsaicin desensitization did not affect restraint stress …

Circular strips of the rat gastric corpus muscle were mounted in Krebs solution for isometric
tension recording. Addition of capsaicin usually led to either relaxation or contraction, but in …

In vitro intestinal absorption of capsaicin was studied in the rat and hamster. Capsaicin
absorption was greater in the hamster. In both the rat and the hamster, the absorption of …

METHODS Four dogs, weighing between 13 and 19 kg, were surgically prepared with a
Gregory cannula (4) in a Heidenhain pouch and a Thomas cannula in the main stomach …

The effects of capsaicin, a pungent principle of capsicum pepper, and its combination with
various diets on the morphology of duodenal mucosa was studied on young rats grouped …
