Abstract

This paper describes the ultrastructural, topographical changes seen in rat gastric mucosa following application of 0.1 N HC1 or 1,10 or 50 niM NaF in 0.1 N HC1 to the stomach. No morphological differences were noticed between the 0.1 N HC1 (control) and 1 mM NaF in 0.1 N HCI specimens. Ten milliomolar NaF in 0.1 N HC1 produced some desquamation of surface mucous epithelial cells while 50 mM NaF produced extensive damage to cells surrounding the gastric gland openings (foveolae) as well as inlerfoveolar cell loss.
