EFFECTS OF L-GLUTAMINE ON ACETYLSALICYLIC ACID-INDUCED GASTRIC LESIONS IN NORMAL AND CIRRHOTIC RATS

[摘要] References(17)Cited-By(2)Cirrhosis of the liver in rats was induced by the administration of carbon-tetrachloride (0.1 ml/100 g of body weight, s.c.) biweekly for 13 weeks. In the pylorus ligation preparation, acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) 100 mg/kg p.o. Induced much more serious gastric damage in CCl4-induced cirrhotic rats as compared with rats with a normal liver. L-glutamine 750 mg/kg p.o. prevented the ASA-induced gastric lesions in both normal and cirrhotic rats, even though the degree of the inhibition was weaker in cirrhotic rats. Gastric analysis indicated that L-glutamine 750 mg, , kg p.o. markedly inhibited the gastric ionic changes (acid back diffusion) in response to ASA in both cirrhotic and normal rats.
