In vitro and in vivo protection against indomethacin-induced small intestinal injury by proton pump inhibitors, acid pump antagonists, or indomethacin-phosphatidylcholine
Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely used to prevent nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-induced peptic ulcers. NSAIDs produce small intestinal injury and some PPIs have been reported to protect against NSAID-induced small bowel injury in rats. The aim of this study was to compare PPIs, revaprazan, and phosphatidylcholine-associated indomethacin (Indo-PC) for protection against indomethacin (Indo)-induced small bowel injury.
METHODS: Rat intestinal epithelial cells (IEC-6) were pretreated with omeprazole, lansoprazole, or revaprazan prior to exposure to Indo or Indo-PC. Cell viability was assessed by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium assay. Omeprazole, lansoprazole, or revaprazan was administered orally to rats prior to the vehicle or Indo. Indo-PC was administered alone. After 24 h, small intestinal erosions were counted; intestinal bleeding was assessed as the hemoglobin concentration of small intestinal fluid.
RESULTS: Omeprazole, lansoprazole, and revaprazan did not protect against Indo-induced IEC-6 cell injury. Indo-PC was less damaging in vitro than Indo alone. In vivo, neither omeprazole nor lansoprazole protected against Indo-induced small bowel injury; however, revaprazan pretreatment and Indo-PC resulted in significantly fewer erosions (>50% reduction) or bleeding (>80% reduction).
CONCLUSION: PPIs showed no small bowel protective effect in vitro or in vivo. Revaprazan showed a small bowel protective effect in vivo, whereas Indo-PC was…
