Abstract
The study aimed to investigate the mechanism underlying theantiulcer effects of aqueous extracts of stem-bark of Dolichandrone falcate (AEDF) against aspirin-induced ulcerogenesis in rats. Acute gastric ulcer was induced by orally administering 200 mg/kg aspirin suspended in 1%v/v tween 80solution in rats.The volumes of the gastric content, pH, total & free acidity of gastric juice weremeasured and ulcer index &percentage of ulcer protection were calculated.The present results suggested that Dolichandronefalcatadecreased ulcer index and increased percentage of ulcer protection by significant reduction of volume of the gastric content, total & free acidity of gastric juice inversely increases the pH. This effect may protect the gastric mucosa against ulceration by antisecretory and antiulcerogenic property of Dolichandrone falcate.
