The Defensive Effect of Keuibi-tang on the Gastric Mucous Membrane of Mouse Injured by Stress and Ethanol

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of Keuibi-tang (KBT) on the injury of gastric mucous membrane by stress and ethanol in mice. The normal group was non-inflammation elicited mice. The two control groups were mice with gastro-inflammation elicited by stress and ethanol. The two sample groups were mice administered KBT before gastro-inflammation elicitation. In the common morphology and histochemical change, the two control groups were observed with various injuries such as hemorrhagic erosion and ulcer, while the sample group was the same as the normal group. In the immunohistochemical change, the distributions of PNA and COX-1 treated with KBT noticeably increased over the control group (P<0.05). The distributions of $NF-{\kappa}B$ p50, COX-2 and TUNEL in the group treated with KBT were noticeably lower than in the control group (P<0.05). The distribution of KBT was the same as the normal group. According to the above results, it is supposed that KBT is applicable to gastritis and gastric ulcer due to stress and alcoholic drinks.
