This study evaluated the gastroprotective activity of DA-6034 against various ulcerogens including ethanol, aspirin, indomethacin, stress, and acetic acid. The basic mechanisms of DA-6034 as a defensive factor such as mucus secretion and endogenous prostaglandin E(2) synthesis were determined. Rats with gastric lesions induced by ethanol-HCl, aspirin, indomethacin, and stress that had been pretreated with DA-6034 orally showed a statistically significant decrease or decreasing tendency of the gastric lesion. In acetic acid-induced gastric lesions, repeated oral administration of DA-6034 exhibited a U-shape activity in ulcer healing, with the maximum and minimum inhibition being observed at 30 and 10 mg/kg/day, respectively. DA-6034 also increased the mucus content in the gel layer as well as endogenous prostaglandin E(2) synthesis. These results suggest that DA-6034 prevents gastric mucosal injury, and these gastroprotective activities appear to be due to the increase in the gastric defensive systems.

Background And Aims: Small gastric subepithelial tumors (SETs) in the stomach can be managed through surveillance or resection. However, it is still controversial how often the lesion would progress if left untreated. This study aimed to evaluate the progression rate of small SETs and identify risk factors influencing tumor growth.

A large number of by-products generated in the food industry is discarded as waste, especially the residue left after extracting plant resources, which is typically repurposed as fertilizer. In this study, we extracted and purified a new protein, DOP1, from the residue of Dendrobium officinale Kimura & Migo (D. officinale), and explored the protective effect of DOP1 on alcohol-induced gastric mucosal injury.

Background: Leptomeningeal metastasis of gastric adenocarcinoma (LM-GC) is a rare and severe complication with a poor prognosis, its prognosis is significantly poorer than liver, lung, and peritoneal metastases. Studies on LM-GC have been limited to clinical case reports. Despite advances in systemic therapies, there is a lack of standardized treatment protocols for LM-GC due to its rarity and the challenges it presents.

The present study aimed to unveil the gastroprotective potential of Vaccinium macrocarpon (VM) extract and its mechanism of action against indomethacin (INDO)-induced gastric ulcers in rats. To achieve this goal, rats were pretreated with either omeprazole (20 mg/kg) or VM (100 mg/kg) orally for 14 consecutive days. Gastric tissue samples were collected and various parameters were evaluated to understand the mechanism of VM's action, including the levels of superoxide dismutase, malondialdehyde, glutathione, CAT and transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), as well as the mRNA expression levels of tumour necrosis factor alpha, interleukin 1 beta, nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and inhibitor kappa B (IκB).

Introduction: () infection is highly prevalent globally and poses a significant public health challenge due to its link with chronic gastritis, peptic ulcers, and gastric malignancies. 's persistence within the gastric environment, particularly in case of infection with virulent strains, triggers chronic inflammatory responses and mucosal damage. Antibiotic therapy is the primary approach for eradication, but antibiotic resistance and adverse effects hinder treatment efficacy.
