Abstract
The stomach has many physiological functions, such as acid and pepsin secretion, mucus production and motility, which are supposed to be regulated by gastric mucosal blood flow. Therefore, blood flow is an extremely important defensive factor for the gastric mucosa. The present study was designed to elucidate the role of mucosal blood flow in the development of acute gastric mucosal lesions (AGML) after burn stress. Gastric mucosal blood flow and microcirculatory disturbance were investigated. Also, we examined the influence of gastric mucosal blood flow on the alternation of acid and pepsin activity, energy metabolism and mucus production (Hexosamine content).
