Fig. 3. Photomicrograph of H&E stained sections in gastric mucosa (×100) showing: (A) Control group: intact mucosa with surface mucus layer (arrowheads) covering the gastric pits, gastric glands. (B) CRS group: diffuse mucosal abrasions, hemorrhage (asterisk), hemosiderin precipitation (arrow), patches of sloughed mucosal epithelium (curved arrows) and disturbed glands. (C) Ran+CRS group: intact gastric mucosa with intact surface epithelium. (D) Sim+CRS group: intact gastric mucosa with mild congestion in the lamina propria (curved arrow). (E) Neb+CRS group: ameliorated mucosal erosion with slight disturbance in the surface and cell desquamation (curved arrows). (F) Sim+Neb+CRS group: intact gastric mucosa with surface mucus layer (arrowheads) covering the gastric pits. CRS, cold restraint stress; Neb, nebivolol; Ran, ranitidine; RS, cold restraint stress; Sim, simvastatin. Scale bars=100 µm (A–F).
