N |
• susceptibility to indomethacin-induced changes in mucosa permeability is significantly attenuated relative to wild-type controls or Rag2-deficient mice
|
• when given 10-20 mg/kg indomethacin, mice have markedly less damage to integrity of the small bowel mucosa than controls or Rag2-null mice which develop small nonhemorrhagic lesions in the jejunum
|
• when given 10-20 mg/kg indomethacin, mice have markedly less damage to integrity of the gastric mucosa than controls or Rag2-null mice which develop extensive hemorrhagic lesions of the gastric mucosa
