Abstract
Capsaicin desensitization increases the degree of indomethacin-induced gastric ulcers in sham-operated but not in adrenal-ectomized rats. These results suggest that adrenals play a role in the capsaicin-sensitive "gastric defence mechanism".This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
