Phlogistic action of ethanol: a study of the vascular response in the gastric and duodenal mucosae.
Ethanol-induced vascular response in the gastric and duodenal mucosae was investigated by light and electron microscopy using the colloidal carbon technique. Investigations were done in fed and starved animals, with a time-response study in each group for 24 hr after ethanol administration. The results show cytoprotection of food against the hazardous effects of ethanol.
