The protective effects of Gamma-linolenic acid against indomethacin-induced gastric ulcer in rats
Br J Nutr. 2024 Mar 6:1-28. doi: 10.1017/S0007114524000382. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe primary goal of the investigation was to analyze the anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties of Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) on rats with Indomethacin (IND)-induced gastric ulcers. Thirty rats were divided into five groups: Control, IND (50 mg/kg, p.o.), IND pretreated with GLA 100 mg/kg (p.o. for 14 days), IND pretreated with GLA 150 mg/kg (p.o. for 14 days), and IND pretreated with omeprazole (20 mg/kg, p.o. for 14 days). The stomach tissues were examined to calculate the ulcer index, and pH, and analyze biochemical markers ...

Synthesis and biological evaluation of triazolones/oxadiazolones as novel urease inhibitors
Bioorg Med Chem. 2024 Feb 25;102:117656. doi: 10.1016/j.bmc.2024.117656. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTUrease is the main virulence factor of infectious gastritis and gastric ulcers. Urease inhibitors are regarded as the first choice for the treatment of such diseases. Based on the triazolone/oxadiazolone skeleton, a urea-like fragment being able to specifically bind the urease activity pocket and prevent urea from hydrolysis, we designed and synthesized 45 triazolones/oxadiazolones as urease inhibitors. Eight compounds were proved to show excellent inhibitory activity against Helicobacter pylori urease, being more potency...

Real-world evidence of Pressure-Enabled Drug Delivery for trans-arterial chemoembolization and radioembolization among patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and liver metastases
Conclusion: Despite higher baseline disease burden and complexity, post-procedure HRU and clinical complications for PEDD patients were similar to non-PEDD patients. The complex baseline clinical profile may reflect selection of challenging cases for PEDD use. Future studies should validate the benefits observed with PEDD embolization in larger samples with greater statistical power.PMID:38414420 | DOI:10.1080/03007995.2024.2322057 (Source: Current Medical Research and Opinion)

Molecules, Vol. 29, Pages 880: Dendrobium officinale Polysaccharides as a Natural Functional Component for Acetic-Acid-Induced Gastric Ulcers in Rats
In this study, DOP was extracted and characterized for its structural properties. The potential of DOP to ameliorate gastric ulcers (GUs) was investigated using an acetic-acid-induced GU model in rats. The results demonstrated that DOP exerted a multifaceted protective effect against GU, mitigating the deleterious impact on food intake and body weight in rats. DOP exhibited its protective action by attenuating cellular damage attributed to oxidative stress and inflammatory reactions mediated by enhanced activities of SOD, GSH, and GSH-PX, coupled with a downregulation in the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, includ...

Antiulcer activity of Mauritia flexuosa L.f. (Arecaceae) pulp oil: An edible Amazonian species with functional properties
This study aimed to evaluate the gastroprotective and antiulcer effects of buriti oil and its possible mechanisms of action. Buriti oil reduced the ulcerative area and lipid peroxidation induced by ethanol. The gastroprotective activity of buriti oil partially depends on nitric oxide and sulfhydryl compounds. In acetic acid-induced gastric ulcers, buriti oil accelerated healing and stimulated the formation of new gastric glands. These results demonstrated the potential of buriti oil as a functional ingredient to promote health benefits in the gastrointestinal tract.PMID:38354821 | DOI:10.1016/j.fitote.2024.105857 (Source: Fitoterapia)

A Case of Primary Gastric Lymphoma with Spontaneous Perforation
Gan To Kagaku Ryoho. 2023 Dec;50(13):1468-1470.ABSTRACTAn 85-year-old female patient presented to the emergency department with the chief complaint of sudden upper abdominal pain. The patient suffered from anorexia and epigastric pain for a month, and a local physician suspected a diagnosis of gastric ulcer. An abdominal computed tomography(CT)scan showed intraperitoneal free air as well as irregular thickening and thinning of the gastric wall. Gastric ulcer perforation was suspected, and an emergency operation was performed. Surgical findings showed thickening of the gastric wall in the pylorus and gastric corpus but part...
