| 1 | CONCLUSIONS: (1) Growth factors accelerate ulcer healing due to enhancement in the microcirculation around the ulcer and these effects are specific because they can be abolished by neutralization with antibodies; (2) COX-2-derived prostaglandins and suppression of gastric secretion may play an important role in the acceleration of ulcer healing by various growth factors, and (3) the local effects of EGF, HGF and bFGF on ulcer healing can be reproduced by their systemic application indicating the high efficacy of growth factors to accelerate this healing. | Prostaglandins | epidermal growth factor like 1 | Rattus norvegicus |
