Aj. Vanisree et Cs. Shyamaladevi, BIOCHEMICAL-STUDIES EVALUATING THE ANTIULCEROGENIC POTENTIAL OF UL-409, A HERBAL DRUG FORMULATION ON EXPERIMENTAL PEPTIC-ULCER IN RATS, Current Science, 73(8), 1997, pp. 684-686
This study was designed to evaluate the cytoprotective effect of UL-40
9 in experimental peptic ulcer, Male Wistar rats orally intubated with
HCl-ethanol mixture for the induction of ulcer were pretreated with U
L-409, orally for 30 days, The volume and total acidity of the gastric
juice were decreased in pretreated rats, The mucosal protein, mucosal
sugars and sialic acid levels which were decreased in ulcer group wer
e maintained to near normalcy after the pretreatment.
