title: [Pharmacological studies on the effects of some traditional Chinese medicines on gastric functions. (3) The effects of oren-gedoku-to (OGT), san'o-syasin-to (SST), antyu-san (AS) and dai-saiko-to (DST) on ethanol- and aspirin-induced gastric lesions in rats].
abstract: The effects of OGT, SST, AS and DST on ethanol- and aspirin-induced gastric hemorrhagic lesions in rats were studied in comparison with those of sucralfate, 16,16-dimethyl-prostaglandin E2 (DMPGE2) and cimetidine. 1) OGT given orally at doses of 25-250 mg/kg protected gastric mucosa from injury induced by ethanol or aspirin. 2) SST prevented the appearance of aspirin-induced lesions at doses more than 25 mg/kg, and ethanol-induced lesions at 250 and 500 mg/kg. 3) AS and DST inhibited aspirin-induced lesions at more than 250 mg/kg and inhibited ethanol-induced lesions at 500 mg/kg. 4) Sucralfate (500 mg/kg) significantly prevented ethanol- and aspirin-induced lesions. DMPGE2 significantly inhibited ethanol-induced lesions at doses more than 0.1 micrograms/kg, and it inhibited aspirin-induced lesions dose-dependently at doses ranging from 0.1 to 5 micrograms/kg. Cimetidine significantly inhibited aspirin-induced lesions at doses of 10-250 mg/kg and inhibited ethanol-induced lesions at doses of 100 and 250 mg/kg. These results suggest that OGT, SST, AS and DST have a prophylactic effect on ulcerogenics, and the potency of OGT may be superior to those of SST, AS and DST.
