Recently, the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug(NSAID) as an anti-inflammatory analgesic and antithrombotic has increased with the general aging of our society. Although it is understood that gastric mucosal injury is most-frequent side-effect of NSAID, there are actually a variety of mechanisms that NSAID has, some which are due to the depressed production of prostaglandin (PG). The main action of PG in the gastric mucosa is the regulation of gastric mucosa protecting mechanism and if PG is insufficient, the gastric mucosa is weakened. As endogenous PG decreases, there is a decrease in mucus production accompanied by a decrease in bicarbonate secretion, problems with, an increase of stomach motility, tissue restoration suppression and so on. As a result, it is considered that the defense mechanisms decrease and gastric mucosal injury occurs.

Background: Yoghurt, a fermented dairy product consumed by diverse cultures for centuries, has garnered significant attention from the scientific community due to its potential health benefits and remarkable versatility. This study investigated the anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects of pre-treatment with pasteurized yoghurt in indomethacin induced gastric ulceration.
Method: Thirty male Wistar rats were randomly assigned into five groups.

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.
