Pretreatment with sucralfate is known to protect gastric mucosa against the damaging effect
of strong irritants, and this protection is accompanied by an increase in mucosal blood flow …

Background & Aim. New class of nitric oxide-releasing non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
was shown to inhibit cyclooxygenase and prostaglandin generation without causing …

Cytoprotective drugs, including sucralfate, colloidal bismuth (De-Nol), aluminium-containing
antacids (Maalox), carbenoxolone-like agents (sofalcone), and stable PGE 2 analogues …

Nitric oxide can exert either protective or damaging effects on the gastric mucosa. To further
explore the role of nitric oxide in the modulation of gastric mucosal defense, the effects of …

We determined the mechanism of the gastroprotective effects of ecabet sodium (ecabet), a
new antiulcer drug. Ecabet (12.5-100 mg/kg po) dose-dependently protected gastric mucosa …

Systemic administration of capsaicin aggravates ethanol-induced injury of rat gastric
mucosa. We evaluated the effect of subcutaneous administration of capsaicin on the gastric …

Background: Capsaicin acts specifically on primary afferent neurones to release
neuropeptides, including calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP), and prevents ethanol …

The role of endogenous nitric oxide and sulphydryls in gastric protection afforded by sodium
cromoglycate against ethanol-induced gastric lesions was studied in rats. Drugs were …
