title: Effects of fasting on mucus glycoprotein in rat stomach.
abstract: Quantitative changes and chemical composition of gastric mucus glycoproteins in rats after fasting for 24 and 72 hr were studied. The amount of glycoproteins increased in the corpus mucosa during these periods (220% in control for 72 hr), but remained the same in the antrum. The acidity of corpus glycoproteins decreased during the fasting.
