Sažetak
Adaptive cytoprotection could be demonstrated in lesion attenuation within the whole gastrointestinal tract, in particular sequences, with onset and duration longer than the initial short-lasting period (i.e. one hour) defined by Robert in the stomach only. Adaptive cytoprotection possibly appeared and lesions were attenuated when the stomach, duodenum or colon, in various combinations and sequences, were challenged with initial (mild) and/or final (strong) irritants over a two-week period. Rats were challenged with the mild or strong irritants 25% or 96% ethanol intragastrically 1 ml/rat (stomach) and cysteamine 40 mg or 400 mg/kg subcutaneously (duodenum), or intrarectally (colon). To postulate the prostaglandin relationship known in Robert's cytoprotection and adaptive cytoprotection, indomethacin (1 mg/kg subcutaneously) was given simultaneously with the second challenge. Administering the mild and strong irritant protocols within the same part of the gastrointestinal tract, adaptive cytoprotection presents in the stomach (1 h to 14 days), duodenum (2 h to 14 days), but not in the colon. With these protocols applied to different parts of the gastrointestinal tract, adaptive cytoprotection cross-reaction was evident in the stomach-duodenum, duodenum-stomach (1 h-14 days and 2 h-14 days), stomach-colon, and duodenum-colon (both 2-24 hours), but not in the colon-stomach or colon-duodenum. This protection was fully antagonized with indomethacin. As observed for a day and even weeks, stomach-duodenum-colon adaptive cytoprotection is an important new defensive phenomenon.
