title: Effects of indomethacin and cold-stress on gastric acid secretion and ulceration. The effects of anti-acid secretory agents in rats.
abstract: Gastric ulcerations induced in rats by a combination of indomethacin and cold-stress (5 +/- 1 degrees C) for 6 hr were more severe than those induced by indomethacin or cold-stress alone. The acidity of gastric juice was increased in rats treated with indomethacin plus cold-stressed. Histamine H2 receptor antagonists, (H+-K+) ATPase inhibitors and prostaglandins inhibited gastric ulcer formation in indomethacin plus cold-stress treated rats, whereas anticholinergics aggravated the ulceration. The indomethacin plus cold-stress induced acid secretion was inhibited by cimetidine and omeprazole in pylorus-ligated rats. Atropine had less effect on the increase in acidity than cimetidine and omeprazole. These findings indicate that the ulcer formation in indomethacin plus cold-stress treated rats is related the increased in acidity of gastric juice. This gastric ulcer model may be useful for evaluating antiulcer agents.
