  • Title: Measuring gastric PGE2 release in healthy and alcoholic subjects after ethanol stimulation.
    Author: Cavallini G, Franco L, Brocco G, Orlandi PG, Riela A, Manara P, Pavesi V, Velo G.
    Journal: Ital J Gastroenterol; 1991 Nov; 23(8):487-90. PubMed ID: 1751824.
    Abstract:
    The aim of this work was to study the effect of 20% and 40% ethanol, administered acutely, on gastric PGE2 release in normal subjects and alcoholics. Ethanol 20% did not modify the release of PGE2 into the gastric juice, whereas 40% ethanol increased PGE2 release only in healthy subjects. The basal PGE2 levels were higher in alcoholic patients.
