Gastric mucosal injury was induced by RWIS for 3 h in rats, and gastric mucosal damage was analyzed after that. The PS, NaHS (100 μmol/kg body weight), Gl (100 μmol/kg body weight), Gl (100 μmol/kg or 150 μmol/kg body weight) plus NaHS (100 μmol/kg body weight), PDTC (100 μmol/kg body weight), and PDTC (100 μmol/kg body weight) plus NaHS (100 μmol/kg body weight) were respectively injected intravenously before RWIS.RESULTSRWIS induced serious gastric lesions in the rats in the PS pretreatment group. The pretreatment of NaHS (a H<sub>2</sub>S donor) significantly reduced the damage induced by RWIS. The gastric protective effect of the NaHS during RWIS was attenuated by PDTC, an NF-κB inhibitor, and also by glibenclamide, an ATP-sensitive potassium channel blocker, in a dose-dependent manner.CONCLUSIONThese results suggest that exogenous H<sub>2</sub>S plays a protective role against RWIS injury in rats, possibly through modulation of K<sub>ATP</sub> channel opening and the NF-κB dependent pathway.展开更多

Stilbenes have inhibitory effects on the growth of lactic acid bacteria strains isolated from wine. The authors investigated the viability of obtaining free-SO2 resveratrol-enriched red wines. Substitution of sulfite (7 g/100kg) for resveratrol (150 mg/L and 300 mg/L) in the vinification process did not change the basic physical and chemical properties of wine or its sensorial profile To the best of the authors' knowledge this is the first time that this type of vinification procedure is reported.展开更多
