Effects of Topical Application of KT1-32 on Transmucosal Potential Difference and Acid Secretion in the Rat Stomach

[摘要] References(17)Cited-By(2)Effects of intragastric application of azuletil sodium (KT1-32), a novel antiulcer drug, on transmucosal potential difference (PD) and acid secretion were investigated in the rat stomach. The stomach was mounted on a Lucite chamber and perfused with saline before and after exposure to KT1-32 for 10 min. KT1-32 (3-30 mg/kg) produced an elevation of PD in a dose-dependent manner with a rise of the luminal pH. The increased PD response caused by KT1 -32 (10 mg/kg) persisted after removal of the agent from the stomach, but this PD generating effect was significantly mitigated by pretreatment with omeprazole (60 mg/kg, i.p.). KT1-32 raised PD under basal conditions, but did not significantly affect the reduced PD response caused by 30% ethanol. In addition, topical application of KT1-32 significantly reduced acid secretion caused by histamine (4 mg/kg/hr, i.v.) and carbachol (20 μg/kg/hr, i.v.). In the in vitro study, KT1-32 at 3.9×10-4 M showed 50% inhibition of the H/K ATPase activity prepared from the hog gastric mucosa. These results suggest that KT1-32 exerts locally antisecretory and PD generating effects. The latter may be accounted for by the antisecretory action, which is probably related to the H/K ATPase inhibition.
