Cytoprotection and adapted cytoprotection

  • Chapter
Peptic Ulcer Disease: Basic and Clinical Aspects

Part of the book series: Developments in Gastroenterology ((DIGA,volume 7))

Abstract

Cytoprotection in the stomach can be defined as the phenomenon that damage to the gastric mucosa by irritating agents can be prevented. Data will be outlined below to show that two different forms of cytoprotection exist:

  1. 1.

    direct cytoprotection

  2. 2.

    adapted cytoprotection

As prostaglandins play an important role in the concept of cytoprotection, a short outline is given of the structure of prostaglandins.
