INFLUENCE OF L-GLUTAMINE ON ASPIRIN-INDUCED GASTRIC LESIONS AND ABSORPTION AS WELL AS ANTIPYRETIC, ANALGESIC AND ANTI-INFLAMMATORY EFFECTS OF ASPIRIN IN RATS AND MICE

摘要

References(16) Cited-By(4) L-glutamine markedly suppressed the development of the gastric lesions induced by aspirin in pylorus-ligated rats. In non-ligated normal rats, aspirin was absorbed rapidly after administration and was maintained in the blood in high salicylate concentration thereafter. When aspirin was administered in combination with L-glutamine, the absorption of aspirin was at nearly the same level as when aspirin had been given alone. In pylorus-ligated rats, administration of aspirin was followed by slow increment in blood salicylate concentration. Blood salicylate level in these rats was higher when aspirin was administered in combination with L-glutamine than when it had been given alone. Combined administration of aspirin and L-glutamine produced little influence on the antipyretic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects of aspirin in non-ligated normal rats.
