Rats were given either carbenoxolone 50 mg kg-1, deglycyrrhized liquorice 1 g kg-1 or vehicle by gastric tube. The doses were repeated 16 h later, and the stomachs removed after another 2 h. The amounts of prostaglandin E (PGE), 6-keto-PGF1 alpha and thromboxane B2, measured by radioimmunoassay in extracts of the gastric corpus and antrum mucosa, were similar in the treated animals and the controls. We conclude that in rats, carbenoxolone and deglycyrrhized liquorice may exert their anti-ulcer effect by a non-prostaglandin mechanism. This contrasts with the mechanism through to occur in man with carbenoxolone.

Background: Single herb Ayurvedic lipid-based formulations of Glycyrrhiza glabra are used as oral, nasal and topical applications for reducing radiotherapy induced side effects in oral cavity cancer patients. These formulations are reported to be de-glycyrrhized, thus minimizing adverse effects of glycyrrhizin on longer consumption. Being a proprietary formulation with specific ratio of herb, lipid and liquid media, there is a need of pharmaceutical standardization and stability study to be conducted for quality control and quality assurance.

We have examined the protective effect of liquorice or its derivatives against gastric ulcer induced by aspirin. A granular mixture of aspirin alone and coated with liquorice or its derivatives including the deglycyrrhized form, a high glycyrrhized form, carbenoxolone, and enoxolone were studied. Aspirin coated with liquorice reduced the number and size of ulcers, reducing the ulcer index from 1.

The subjects aged between 20 and 59 are most often affected, the males being 2 times more often affected. The histological study on the purposeful biopsy of the mucosa of the stomach and duodenum established, most frequently, the presence of chronic superficial gastritis and duodenitis, followed by initial chronic atrophic gastritis.

Quantitative gas chromatography--mass spectrometry has shown that human gastric mucosa homogenized in Krebs' solution yields mainly 6-keto-PGF1 alpha, with smaller amounts of PGD2 PGE2 and PGF2 alpha. However, the sources of these products and their roles in the gastric mucosa have not been fully elucidated.
