title: [Potentiation of the gastro-protective effect of sulglicotide in the presence of cimetidine in the rat].
abstract: The effects of sulglicotide, alone or combined with cimetidine, have been investigated on mucosal lesions induced in rats by pylorus ligation. In the same animals, the measurement of acid and pepsin output and of soluble and barrier mucus has been performed. Dose-dependent sulglicotide prevented the development of mucosal lesions and its protective effect was achieved without significant modifications in gastric acid secretion. The secretion of pepsin and of mucus was markedly inhibited at every dosage of the compound. Neither the damage to gastric mucosa nor the secretion of acid, pepsin and mucus were affected by cimetidine. The combination of the highest doses of both compounds resulted in a synergistic gastro-protective effect, not dependent on a synergistic effect on the reduction in acid secretion.
