We examined the effects of 1 M NaCl as a mild irritant on gastric potential difference (PD), acid secretion, mucosal blood flow (MBF), and DNA synthetic activity in anesthetized rat stomachs and compared these effects with those of 4 M NaCl as a strong irritant. Both 1 M and 4 M NaCl produced a PD reduction (mucosal injury), but the reduced PD recovered faster in the mucosa exposed to 1 M NaCl as compared to 4 M NaCl. Acid secretion ceased after exposure to these hypertonic NaCl solutions, but histamine infusion (8 mg/kg/hr) stimulated acid secretion only in the mucosa exposed to 1 M NaCl. The MBF was significantly increased in response to 1 M NaClI, while exposure to 4 M NaCl had no effect on the MBF. These changes in acid secretion and MBF induced by 1 M NaCl were significantly antagonized by pretreatment with indomethacin (5 mg/kg, s.c.). The levels of PGE2 and 6-keto PGF1α in the corpus mucosa were significantly increased in the stomach exposed to both 1 M and 4 M NaCl, and these increases disappeared in the presence of indomethacin. The rate of [3H]-thymidine incorporation was significantly reduced in the mucosa after exposure to 4 M NaCl, but remained unaltered in the stomach exposed to 1 M NaCl. These results suggest that although both 1 M and 4 M NaCl produced mucosal injury (PD reduction) and enhanced PGs formation, a variety of functional alterations mediated by PGs occurred in response to injury in the stomach exposed to 1 M NaCl. The presence or absence of these functional responses may be associated with the biphasic actions on the gastric mucosa of these hypertonic NaCl solutions as mild and strong irritants.
