Antioxidant, Anti-inflammatory, and Antiulcer Potential of Manuka Honey against Gastric Ulcer in Rats

Figure 3

Effect of manuka honey on the gastric mucosal glycoprotein formation detected by PAS staining in the ethanol-induced gastric ulceration model. (a) Control; (b and c) ethanol (ulcer): marked glycoprotein depletion with a compensatory increase in nearby cells; (d) omeprazole: preserved gastric mucosal glycoproteins; (e) manuka honey: preserved gastric mucosal glycoproteins (sections are PAS stained ×20).
