Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Our findings suggest that allyl isothiocyanate, a pungent ingredient of wasabi, induced gastric low-grade inflammation with no mucosal damage is independent on TRPA1 channels in rat stomachs, but is dependent on capsaicin-sensitive sensory neurons and endogenous prostaglandin. In contrast, endogenous nitric oxide facilitates to suppress gastric low-grade inflammation in response to AITC. These factors are thought to lead to low grade inflammation in gastric mucosa, resulting in the impaired motility in rodents.
