Gastroprotective effect of ghrelin against indomethacin-induced gastric injury in rats: possible role of heme oxygenase-1 pathway

Abstract: Ghrelin has been shown to ameliorate gastric injury by several mechanisms in experimental animal models. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of pretreatment with ghrelin on indomethacin-induced gastric injury in rats and the role of heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) pathway as a novel mechanism underlying the gastroprotective effect of ghrelin. In all groups studied, ulcer score (U.S), ulcer index (U.I) and preventive index (P.I) were evaluated and the gastric inflammatory biomarkers including levels of tum… Show more

“…caused significant ulceration in the glandular area and degenerative changes in gastric tissues of the rat stomach as seen in histopathological examination as it showed epithelial loss, congested blood vessels with inflammatory cell infiltration, associated with considerable elevation in ulcer number and ulcer index, which was in agreement with previous studies that indicated that NSAIDs like indomethacin can generate observable gastric ulcers in experimental animals [1,6,18,39,75,89,90]. Pyloric-ligation/indomethacin-induced mucosal injury is attributed to various processes, including infiltration of leukocytes, inhibition of PG-E 2 , initiation of lipid peroxidation, decreasing levels of anti-oxidants, and induction of apoptosis [91,92].…”

“…Injection of indomethacin significantly raised the concentration of MDA in the mucosa of the stomach about three times, reaching (16.76 ±2.21 nmol/g tissue) comparing with the control group (5.29±1.44 nmol/g tissue) .These results agree with many authors (Kim et al,2011 ;Allam andEL-Gohary, 2017 andNwaonukuru et al,2018) .BL pretreatment (100 and 200 mg/kg b.w respectively) significantly decreased MDA to 10.36 ± 1.97nmol/g and 9.10±0.81nmol/g when compared to indomethacin group. BF pretreatment (100 and 200 mg/kg b.w respectively) diminished MDA to 7.96±0.77 nmol/g and 6.15±0.55 wet tissue, respectively.While RAN pretreatment diminished MDA to 6.83±0.76 nmol/g tissue, Mixture extracts BL and BF altogether expanded the reduction of MDA to 6.62 ±1.47nmol/g tissue.Ranitidine has often been accounted to possess immunosuppressive actions and antioxidant , which might be in charge of its antiulcerogenic activity (Ardestani et al, 2004) .Borago introduced a noticeable repression of oxidative damage because of its phenomenal radical scavenging capacity, It conveyed MDA level nearer to ordinary levels.…”

“…Oxidant and antioxidant parameters are used to evaluate the biochemical effect of Indo on the stomach (Allam and El-Gohary 2017). As can be conducted from present results, oxidant parameter levels such as MDA in the Indo group with larger UI showed a significant increase compared to the healthy, or for groups treated with fruit juices highly significant decrease of NO and GSH in gastric tissues.…”
