Effects of carbenoxolone sodium on stress-induced gastric damage in rats. 1973

W E Perkins, and L Vars

Carbenoxolone sodium was studied to determine its effect against restraint-induced gastric mucosal damage in the rat. Significant anti-ulcer activity was observed following intraperitoneal administration in nonfasted but not in either 24 or 48 h fasted rats. Orally, carbenoxolone had no statistically significant effect in non-fasted rats although the data suggest that it may have afforded some protection. These results indicate that the use of non-fasted rats is most probably a requirement for demonstrating the protective activity of this type of anti-ulcer compound in stressed rat assays.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010437 Peptic Ulcer Ulcer that occurs in the regions of the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT which come into contact with GASTRIC JUICE containing PEPSIN and GASTRIC ACID. It occurs when there are defects in the MUCOSA barrier. The common forms of peptic ulcers are associated with HELICOBACTER PYLORI and the consumption of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS).

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.
