Abstract

The ethanol extracts of F. glomerata Linn. (Moraceae) bark and leaves were studied for antiulcer activity against aspirin plus pylorus ligation-induced gastric ulcer, HCl-ethanol-induced ulcer, and water immersion stress-induced ulcer in rats. These plant extracts attenuated the gastric volume, free acidity, total acidity, and ulcer index. They also reduced the gastric lesion induced by HCl-ethanol mixture and showed protection against water immersion stress-induced ulcers. © 2007 Informa Healthcare USA, Inc.
