IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL STUDY OF ISLET PP CELLS DURING THE HEALING PROCESS OF EXPERIMENTAL GASTRIC ULCER IN RATS / 解剖学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the possible function and significance of pancreatic polypeptide during the healing process of experimental gastric ulcer in rat. Methods The immunohistochemical PAP method,morphometry and image analysis were applied to study the changes of the morphology,numerical density on area(N_A) and mean grey degree of islet PP cells during the healing process of experimental gastric ulcer in rats. Results Compared with normal control group(NCG) and saline control group(SCG),the N_A of PP cells markedly decreased,and the mean grey degree markedly increased(P
