Abstract

As is well known, the relationship between the acid-peptic factor and the condition of the gastric protective barrier plays a crucial role in the mechanisms of damage to the gastroduodenal mucosa. It has been established that NSAID-induced gastropathies are invariably accompanied by increased acid-peptic aggression and impaired protective properties of the gastroduodenal mucosal barrier. Therefore, the treatment of NSAID-induced gastropathies should be aimed both at suppressing acid-peptic aggression and at stimulating protective mechanisms. Unfortunately, the issue of enhancing the protective properties of the mucosal barrier remains unresolved. The use of synthetic prostaglandins for this purpose is still insufficiently studied, while their high cost and frequent adverse effects often limit their clinical application. Considerable progress has been achieved in suppressing acid-peptic aggression through the use of H2-histamine receptor antagonists and proton pump inhibitors. However, their efficacy has mainly been investigated from the standpoint of acid suppression, whereas their effects on the gastric mucosal protective barrier remain inadequately studied.
