Strain differences in aspirin-induced gastric ulceration in rats. 1978

T Urushidani, and S Okabe, and K Takeuchi, and K Takagi

We found that there are strain differences in aspirin-induced ulceration in pylorus-ligated rats; the ulcer indices varied, from high to low, in the following order: Donryu greater than Sprague-Dawley greater than Wistar. Several experiments including analysis of gastric contents or ionic flux, determination of serum aspirin esterase activity, absorption of aspirin from the stomach, prothrombin time and hexosamine content in gastric mucosa and juice were performed to elucidate the origin of the differences. A significantly higher acid output in Donryu rats, and higher hexosamine content in the gastric mucosa of Wistar rats were noted. However, it appears unlikely that these factors only contribute to the marked strain difference in aspirin-induced ulcers. The possible different sensitivity of gastric mucosal cell itself to aspirin must be considered.

D004950 Esterases Any member of the class of enzymes that catalyze the cleavage of an ester bond and result in the addition of water to the resulting molecules. Esterase
D005750 Gastric Juice The liquid secretion of the stomach mucosa consisting of hydrochloric acid (GASTRIC ACID); PEPSINOGENS; INTRINSIC FACTOR; GASTRIN; MUCUS; and the bicarbonate ion (BICARBONATES).

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.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D001241 Aspirin The prototypical analgesic used in the treatment of mild to moderate pain. It has anti-inflammatory and antipyretic properties and acts as an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase which results in the inhibition of the biosynthesis of prostaglandins. Aspirin also inhibits platelet aggregation and is used in the prevention of arterial and venous thrombosis.

D012459 Salicylates The salts or esters of salicylic acids, or salicylate esters of an organic acid. Some of these have analgesic, antipyretic, and anti-inflammatory activities by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis. Salicylate,Salicylic Acids,Acids, Salicylic
