Figure 1. Effect of M. compressipes fasciculata pot-pollen (PPMF2) on ethanol-induced gastric ulcers in rats and illustrative images of the stomachs. Animals were treated orally with vehicle (0.5% CMC), PPMF2 (3, 8, 24 mg/kg) or carbenoxolone (100 mg/kg) for seven days after induction (n = 6). Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. *p<0.05 when compared to vehicle control. (One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's test)
