Figure 2

Histopathological examination of gastric tissue. (a) Normal control group. (b) Ethanol-treated group. (c) Omeprazole plus ethanol-treated group. (d) Myricetin plus ethanol-treated group. No disturbance in the gastric mucosa was detected in the normal control group, whereas the ethanol-treated group showed severe destruction of the surface epithelium and necrotic lesions. The black arrow indicates severe hemorrhage of the mucosal layer. Magnification, ×100 and ×400.
