Abstract
Cholecystokinin-8 and pentagastrin protect against ethanol-induced gastric mucosal lesions in rats. The protective effect is antagonized by the nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor, NG-nitro-L-arginine. The inhibitory action of NG-nitro-L-arginine is reversed by L-arginine, but not D-arginine. The findings suggest that NO is involved in the gastroprotection induced by both peptides.Entities:
