Effect of vehicle (Tween 80, 8 %, p.o.), carbenoxolone (CBX, 100 mg/kg, p.o.) and EAF (500 mg/kg, p.o) on gastric lesions induced by absolute ethanol in rats pre-treated with saline i.p., L-NAME (70 mg/kg, i.p.) or NEM (10 mg/kg, i.p.). Each column represents the Mean ± SEM of 6 animals. One-way ANOVA followed by Newman–Keuls test, **p < 0.01,***p < 0.001 vs. saline vehicle; †††p <0.001 groups pre-treated with L-NAME vs. vehicle L-NAME; §§ p < 0.01, §§§ p <0.001 groups pre-treated with NEM vs. vehicle NEM; ###p <0.001 saline pre-treatment vs. its corresponding L-NAME pre-treatment; +p < 0.05, +++p < 0.001 saline pre-treatment vs. its corresponding NEM pre-treatment
