METHODS: The stomachs of isoflurane-anesthetized mice were exteriorized, and the mucosal surface exposed. Blood flow was measured with the laserDoppler technique, and systemic arterial blood pressure monitored. C57BL/6 mice were exposed to water extract produced from Hpylori strain 88-23. To investigate the role of a nerveor iNOS-mediated pathway, we used intraluminal lidocaine and iNOS-/- mice. Blood flow response to the endogenous nitric oxide synthase inhibitor asymmetric dimethyl arginine (ADMA) was also assessed. RESULTS: In wild-type mice, HPE decreased mucosal blood flow by approximately 30%. This reduction was abolished in iNOS-deficient mice, and by pre-treatment with lidocaine. Luminally applied ADMA resulted in reduction in blood flow similar to that observed in wildtype mice exposed to HPE. CONCLUSION: A H py/ori water extract reduces gastric mucosal blood flow acutely through iNOS- and nerve-mediated pathways.展开更多

GMBFwas measured by Laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) and gastric mucosal pH determined by microglasspH electrode. GMBF increased and gastric mucosal pH decreased significantly after intravenous injec-tion of 6μg/kg of pentagastrin; nevertheless GMBF decreased and gastric mucosal pH increasedmarkedly after intravenous administration of 100mg/kg of cimetidine. This indicates that pentagastrincan increase GMBF and gastric acid secretion, and cimetidine can decrease GMBF and gastric acidsecretion in rats, proving the close relationship between GMBF and gastric acid secretion in rats.展开更多

Methods: Gastric mucosal injury model was established by using cold restraining stress method. 40 Wistar rats were randomly and evenly divided into normal control group, model group, EA group and non acupoint group. VIP contents of plasma and gastric mucosal and medulla oblongata tissues were assayed using radioimmunoassay and gastric mucosal blood flow (GMBF) was measured by employing hydrogen clearing method. Results: In cold restraining stress rats, spot and strip like bleeding necrosis foci in the gastric mucous primarily in the gastric antrum could be seen clearly, GMBF and VIP contents in plasma, gastric mucous and brain tissues declined significantly (P<0.05, 0.01), while the gastric mucosal lesion index (LI) raised significantly (P<0.05) in comparison with those of normal control group. Following EA of "Zusanli" (ST 36), GMBF decreased pronouncedly, VIP contents of the plasma, bulba and gastric mucosal tissues increased strikingly in comparison with model group (P<0.01). Conclusion: EA of "Zusanli" (ST 36) possesses a protection effect on gastric mucous under stress condition and VIP is involved in the effect of EA.展开更多

METHODS:Sixty healthy SD rats (30 males,30 females) were divided into control group,injury model group,Zushanli point group,Liangmeng point group. Stress gastric ulcer model was induced by binding cold stress method. Gastric mucosa ulcer injury (UI) index was calculated by Guth method. Gastric mucosa blood flow (GMBF) was recorded with a biological signal analyzer. Protein content and gene expression in gastric mucosal HSP70 were detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Thiobarbital method was used to determine malondialdehyde (MDA) content. Gastric mucosal endothelin (ET) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) were analyzed by radioimmunoassay. RESULTS:High gastric mucosal UI index,high HSP70 expression,low GMBF and PGF2,elevated MDA and ET were observed in gastric mucosa of rats subjected to cold stress. Moxibustion on Zusanli or Liangmeng point decreased rat gastric mucosal UI index,MDA and ET. Conversely,the expression of HSP70,GMBF,and PGE2 was elevated in gastric mucosa after pretreatment with moxibustion on Zusanli or Liangmeng point. The observed parameters were significantly different between Zusanli and Liangmeng points. CONCLUSION:Pretreatment with moxibustion on Zusanli or Liangmeng point protects gastric mucosa against stress injury. This protection is associated with the higher expression of HSP70 mRNA and protein,leading to release of PGE2 and inhibition of MDA and ET,impairment of gastric mucosal index.展开更多

In the experimental study, the Shay model of rats was used. Results: The curative rate of FT in treating duodenal ulcer of six weeks was 70. 59 % and the total effective rate was 91. 18 %. Results of the experimental study showed the protective effects of FT on gastric mucosa. Conclusion: FT could inhibit gastric secretion and regulate gastric mucosal blood flow so as to enhance mucosal defense.展开更多
