Prostaglandins and gastric ulcer

Prostaglandins and gastric ulcer

C F Code. Hosp Pract. 1980 Jul.

Abstract

Interest in the prostaglandins as possible gastric-mucosal cytoprotective agents was first aroused by the oberved antagonism between these compounds and ulcerogenic anti-inflammatory drugs. It has now been shown that several PGs can depress gastric acid secretion and reduce HCl-induced lesions in experimental animals. The clinical implications appear to be well worth exploration.
