Effect of cimetidine on gastric mucosal cell proliferation in man. 1986

L B Svendsen, and O H Hansen, and J K Larsen, and T Pedersen, and A Johansen

Seven duodenal ulcer patients were treated for 3 months with cimetidine. Before and after treatment endoscopic biopsy specimens were taken for autoradiographic estimation of cell proliferation in the gastric mucosa in the antral and fundic part of the stomach and from the duodenum. In all three areas the estimated labeling index was increased during medication with cimetidine. The increase in epithelial cell renewal may participate in the ulcer healing effect of cimetidine.

D005753 Gastric Mucosa Lining of the STOMACH, consisting of an inner EPITHELIUM, a middle LAMINA PROPRIA, and an outer MUSCULARIS MUCOSAE. The surface cells produce MUCUS that protects the stomach from attack by digestive acid and enzymes. When the epithelium invaginates into the LAMINA PROPRIA at various region of the stomach (CARDIA; GASTRIC FUNDUS; and PYLORUS), different tubular gastric glands are formed. These glands consist of cells that secrete mucus, enzymes, HYDROCHLORIC ACID, or hormones.
