From Gastroprotective to Ulcerogenic Effects of Glucocorticoids: Role of Long-Term Glucocorticoid Action

Abstract: Glucocorticoids may have dual action on the gastric mucosa: gastroprotective and ulcerogenic. In this article, we review the data which suggested that an initial action of endogenous glucocorticoids, including stress-produced ones as well as exogenous glucocorticoids is gastroprotective and consider possible mechanisms of the conversion of physiological gastroprotective action of glucocorticoid hormones to their pathological ulcerogenic effect.

“…); however, glucocorticoid therapy increases the risk of gastric ulceration in human patients and small animals (Boothe and Mealey ; Filaretova et al . ). More studies to identify the risk for the development of gastric ulcers in horses after high doses or prolonged therapies with glucocorticoids are warranted.…”

“…The activation of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) system under the conditions of stress-induced gastric lesion has been known leading to the elevated secretion of ACTH and corticosterone [45]. Such intensive increase of glucocorticoids in serum results in severe damage of gastric mucosa [46]. Hyperactivation of HPA system leads to the deep depletion of pituitary and adrenal glands activity and thereafter aggravation of ulcers [44].…”

“…To continue our strategy of using integrative approach ( Filaretova et al 2002;Filaretova et al 2006;Filaretova et al 2009;Filaretova 2011;Filaretova et al 2014) and to understand what happens with the body as a whole ("in vivo"), in the present study we evaluated somatic and behavior changes in rats treated with IM at gastric ulcerogenic dose. Additionally to an appearance of severe injury to the small intestine, body and thymus weights were reduced while adrenal weight and the morning plasma corticosterone levels were enhanced 3 days after IM injection (Fig.…”
