The flavonoid myricetin is abundant in vegetables and has various bioactive properties, including anti-inflammatory and antioxidative activities. In the present study, we explored the effects of myricetin on alcohol-induced gastric ulcer in a rat model. To induce gastric ulcer, absolute ethanol (5 mL/kg body weight) was orally administrated to each rat. The positive control and myricetin-treated groups were given oral doses of omeprazole (20 mg/kg) or myricetin (12 mg/kg), respectively, 1 hour prior to the administration of absolute alcohol. We found that pretreatment with myricetin significantly decreased alcohol-induced gastric ulcer, hemorrhage, hyperemia, and epithelial cell loss in the gastric mucosa. Myricetin pretreatment reduced the level of malondialdehyde (MDA) and increased that of total glutathione (GSSG/GSH) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in gastric tissues. In addition, it elevated the expression levels of cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and prostaglandin E (PGE) and decreased the phosphorylation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-B). Together, these results indicate that myricetin effectively inhibits ethanol-induced acute gastric injury by preventing oxidative damage, stimulating PGE production, and inhibiting NF-B activation. We suggest that myricetin may be an alternative treatment for gastric injury caused by alcohol intake.
黄酮类化合物杨梅素在蔬菜中含量丰富,具有多种生物活性,包括抗炎和抗氧化活性。在本研究中,我们在大鼠模型中探究了杨梅素对酒精诱导的胃溃疡的影响。为诱导胃溃疡,给每只大鼠口服绝对乙醇(5毫升/千克体重)。在给予绝对乙醇前1小时,阳性对照组和杨梅素处理组分别口服奥美拉唑(20毫克/千克)或杨梅素(12毫克/千克)。我们发现,杨梅素预处理显著降低了酒精诱导的胃溃疡、出血、充血以及胃黏膜上皮细胞损失。杨梅素预处理降低了胃组织中丙二醛(MDA)水平,提高了总谷胱甘肽(GSSG/GSH)和超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)水平。此外,它提高了环氧化酶-1(COX-1)和前列腺素E(PGE)的表达水平,并降低了核因子κB(NF-κB)的磷酸化。这些结果共同表明,杨梅素通过防止氧化损伤、刺激PGE产生和抑制NF-κB激活,有效抑制了乙醇诱导的急性胃损伤。我们认为,杨梅素可能是酒精摄入所致胃损伤的一种替代治疗方法。
