Does increased gastric mucus play a role in the ulcer-protecting effects of zinc sulphate?

C H Cho et al. Experientia. .

Abstract

Zinc sulphate pretreatment i.p. produces dose-related reductions in stess ulcer incidence in pylorus-occluded rats. The associated increases in gastric wall mucus, in stressed and nonstressed animals, suggest that a similar effect may contribute to its ulcer-reducing ability in man.
