| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Acetyl salicylic acid (ASA) is a commonly used drug for secondary prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. In addition to its antiplatelet effect, small intestinal injury caused by ASA is an important issue. However, there is as yet no effective prevention.
In this study, ｗe clarified that non-toxic concentrations of ASA can increase small intestinal epithelial cell permeability via a mechanism that depends on reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ROS-modified zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) protein, a major tight junction (TJ) protein, in an in vitro study.In a clinical study, we reported that rebamipide reduced ASA-induced mucosal injury in the human small intestine via unknown mechanisms. In the present study, the mechanism by which rebamipide (with anti-oxidative properties) suppresses ASA-induced small intestinal mucosal injury was clarified.
