Effect of lafutidine, a novel histamine H₂‐receptor antagonist, on monochloramine‐induced gastric lesions in rats: Role of capsaicin‐sensitive sensory neurons

Abstract

These results suggest that lafutidine, but not cimetidine, protects the stomach against NH2Cl, whether occurring endogenously or administered exogenously and that this action may be mediated by capsaicin-sensitive sensory neurons.
