Stress-induced gastric glandular ulcers in rats appeared less severe than those evoked by reserpine, although glandular mucosal mast cell counts were equally decreased. Prior depletion of the glandular mucosal mast cell population confirmed the hypothesis that an additional mechanism contributes to reserpine ulceration.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
