The gastric H+,K+ ATPase--the gastric acid pump--is the molecular target for the class of antisecretory drugs called the proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs). These compounds--omeprazole, lansoprazole, and pantoprazole--contain, as their core structure, 2-pyridyl methylsulfinyl benzimidazole. The H+,K+ ATPase is a heterodimer composed of a 1034-amino acid catalytic alpha peptide and a glycosylated 291-amino acid beta subunit. The alpha subunit probably contains 10 membrane-spanning sequences; the beta, a single transmembrane segment. The PPIs have a pKa of about 4.0; hence they accumulate only in the acidic secretory canaliculus of the stimulated parietal cell. Here they undergo conversion to a cationic sulfenamide, which then reacts with available cysteines on the extracytoplasmic face of the alpha subunit. Omeprazole reacts and forms disulfide bonds with cys813(822) and cys892; lansoprazole, with cys813(822), cys892, and cys321; and pantoprazole, with cys813 and -822. The antisecretory effect of the drugs reflects their short plasma half-life (approximately 60 min), the number of active pumps during that time, and the recovery of pumps following biosynthesis and reversal of inhibition. These drugs also show synergism with either amoxicillin or clari- thromycin in eradicating Helicobacter pylori, an organism shown to be important in duodenal and gastric ulcer disease. Their action is probably due to elevation of pH in the environment of the organism, rather than to any direct action.

Until recently, suppression of gastric acid secretion in patients with peptic ulcer was empirical and of unproven value. Anticholinergic drugs had only modest inhibitory effects on acid secretion, many side effects, and uncertain efficacy. Controlled trials using antacids demonstrated the value of reducing gastric acidity for healing duodenal ulcer. The discovery of histamine-2 (H2) receptor antagonists in the 1970s and the introduction of H+,K(+)-ATPase inhibitors in the 1980s made reduction of acid secretion the first-choice modality for healing and preventing recurrences of duodenal and gastric ulcers. The demonstration in the late 1980s and early 1990s that Helicobacter pylori (Hp) was a major risk factor for duodenal and gastric ulcer recurrences suggested that peptic ulcer could be cured by eradicating this organism from the stomach. However, antibiotic eradication of Hp can be difficult, often requiring simultaneous administration of a drug that suppresses acid secretion. Therefore, H2 and proton pump inhibitors continue to play a role in the management of duodenal and gastric ulcers associated with Hp and also play a primary role in the therapy of other acid-related disorders, such as gastroesophageal reflux diseases, stress ulcers, ulcers associated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and gastrinoma (Zollinger-Ellison syndrome) and other acid hypersecretory states.

Historically, the interplay between basic research and clinical observation has been essential in the development of new therapies for peptic ulcer disease. That histamine is an important regulator of acid secretion emerged from basic research, followed by the clinical development and use of the H2-receptor antagonists. Basic research contributed again by defining the importance of H+/K(+)-ATPase in acid secretion, resulting in a new class of useful antisecretory agents. Basic studies also gave us prostaglandins (PG) as mucosal protective agents. As 'replacement' therapy, clinicians have found that PG are protective against non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-induced gastric ulcer (GU). Physiologic studies established that somatostatin is a potent inhibitor of acid secretion, providing the stimulus for clinical studies in Zollinger-Ellison (ZE) Syndrome with a synthetic analog (octreotide). Work on isoforms of the parietal cell gastrin receptor has shown differences in the cytoplasmic domain for G protein coupling. This will aid in understanding how receptor changes and coupling to second messengers relate to the aetiopathogenesis of abnormal gastric secretion. Immune cells express mRNA for histamine, muscarinic and gastrin receptors, supporting the relevance of mucosal immunology in gastroenterology, especially in light of Helicobacter pylori-associated gastritis and ulcers. Lab research has revealed a potential role for basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), and another endogenous peptide BPC-15, in ulcer healing. The former substance may be responsible for the antiulcer efficacy of sucralfate. Intensive basic work on how H. pylori organisms attach to gastric cells and initiate inflammatory reactions in the mucosa will have unquestionable impact on improved therapy for peptic ulcer disease.

Ethyl 2-[1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)sulfinylmethyl]-4-dimethylamino-5- pyrimidinecarboxylate (2) has been synthesized and evaluated for antiulcer properties. Compound 2 is a H+/K(+)-ATPase inhibitor that affords mucosal protection against absolute ethanol-induced gastric lesions in rats after oral and parenteral administrations. On the other hand, omeprazole, a representative H+/K(+)-ATPase inhibitor, showed mucosal protective action only after oral administration, indicating that it required gastric acid secretion to generate activity. The antiulcer activity of 2 in animal models, such as water-immersion stress-induced gastric ulcer in rats and acidified aspirin-induced gastric ulcer in rats, was three times higher than that of cimetidine.

Omeprazole is an inhibitor of gastric H+,K(+)-ATPase. Although the major proton transport of osteoclast is mediated by a vacuolar-type H(+)-ATPase which is different from the gastric H+,K(+)-ATPase, in vitro studies have demonstrated that omeprazole inhibits bone resorption. In this study, the effect of omeprazole on bone resorption was evaluated in patients who had a history of gastric ulcer and were treated with maintenance doses of H2 blocker without any gastric complaints at the study time. H2-blocker administration was changed to omeprazole treatment in the study group and to no treatment in the control group. Urinary excretion of hydroxyproline and calcium decreased after omeprazole treatment in the study group. Serum intact PTH, alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) increased in this group. In the control group, there were not any changes in these parameters. The discrepancy between serum TRAP and urinary excretion of hydroxyproline and calcium in the study group was thought to be due to the suppression of bone resorption by omeprazole, which probably interfered the acidification at resorption lacunae and resulted in the inactivation of TRAP and other lysosomal enzymes. The results of our study suggest the possibility that the specific inhibitors of the osteoclastic proton pump (such as bafilomycins) will more effectively suppress bone resorption and be useful for the treatment of metabolic bone diseases with increased bone resorption.

This study compares ulcer healing properties of pirenzepine (10 mg/kg), famotidine ) 4 mg/kg), colloidal bismuth subcitrate (200 mg/kg), misoprostol (0.2 mg/kg) in rats. Colloidal bismuth subcitrate (CBC), sucralfate, famotidine and pirenzepine given orally were equally effective in the healing of chronic acetic gastric ulcers, while misoprostol was less effective in this model. In addition, the influence of these drugs on angiogenesis is believed to play a significant role in the healing process of chronic gastric ulcer. Newly formed capillaries play an important role in early stages of healing, reabsorption and granulation. Abundant formation of new capillaries is especially characteristic for granulation. During scar formation these newly formed capillaries disappear. Taking into account the existence of capillaries during healing one can evaluate a quantity of newly born capillaries to describe the healing. The capillary system in histologic cross-sections has been visualized employing an enzymatic test reaction the activity of alkaline phosphatase and ATPase, which are very active in the capillary endothelium. The increased number of capillaries and their surface have been shown using computed analysis of microscopic pictures in animals that had received antiulcer drugs. (Fig. 1-4). Conclusions. (1) Histochemical methods and computed analysis of microscopic pictures used here given an objective evaluation of angiogenesis in the healing process of chronic gastric ulcers. (2) The antiulcer drugs investigated stimulate angiogenesis which is an important element of their accelerating effect on the healing of chronic gastric ulcers.

Mongolian gerbils are a laboratory host for gastric colonization with Helicobacter pylori, showing gastritis followed by typical gastric ulcer after infection with H. pylori. In such gerbils, we evaluated combined therapies of amoxicillin (AMPC) and clarithromycin (CAM) as antibiotics, and omeprazole (OPZ) as a H+/K+ adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) inhibitor. The gerbils were orally inoculated with 2 x 10(8) bacilli of H. pylori ATCC 43504. Four weeks after inoculation, the infected gerbils were orally treated singly with OPZ, AMPC, and CAM, and their insufficient efficacy on bacterial clearance was confirmed by a polymerase chain reaction technique, and by a culture method. In contrast, combined therapy of OPZ plus either AMPC or CAM showed significant bacterial clearance, demonstrating the efficacy of this combined therapy in the gerbil model. Mongolian gerbils are suggested to be useful for the pharmacological evaluation of anti-H. pylori compounds.

1. Polyriboinosinic-polyribocytidylic acid (Poly I:Poly C), an interferon inducer was studied for its effect on gastric ulceration in rats. Polyriboinosinic-polyribocytidylic acid (1, 2 and 4 mg/kg, i.m.) showed a dose-dependent inhibition of gastric ulcers induced by aspirin, cold restraint stress and pylorus ligation (Shay's model). Protective dose (PD50) +/- SEM values of Poly I:Poly C on these models of ulcers were 1.9 +/- 0.2, 2.3 +/- 0.4 and 2.8 +/- 0.4 (mg/kg, i.m.) respectively. 2. Polyriboinosinic-polyribocytidylic acid (10-60 micrograms) produced dose-dependent inhibition of gastric proton pump (H+/K(+)-ATPase) activity in the gastric parietal microsomal fraction. The concentration of Poly I:Poly C causing a 50% inhibition (IC50) +/- SEM was found to be 17.6 +/- 1.2 micrograms. 3. Polyriboinosinic-polyribocytidylic acid caused a significant decrease in free and total acid and pepsin and an increase in mucin content in Shay (pylorus-ligated) rat. 4. Polyriboinosinic-polyribocytidylic acid did not exert a significant influence on isolated tissue preparations for anti-cholinergic (acetylcholine-induced contraction of guinea-pig ileum) and H2-anti-histaminic (histamine-induced contraction of rat uterus and guinea-pig auricle) activities. 5. Thus, the present study indicates that Poly I:Poly C may possess anti-gastric ulcer activity as a result of inhibition of the gastric proton pump.

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are drugs which irreversibly inhibit proton pump (H+/K+ ATPase) function and are the most potent gastric acid-suppressing agents in clinical use. There is now a substantial body of evidence showing improved efficacy of PPIs over the histamine H2 receptor antagonists and other drugs in acid-related disorders. Omeprazole 20 mg/day, lansoprazole 30 mg/day, pantoprazole 40 mg/day or rabeprazole 20 mg/day for 2 to 4 weeks are more effective than standard doses of H2-receptor antagonists in healing duodenal and gastric ulcers. Patients with gastric ulcers should receive standard doses of PPIs as for duodenal ulcers but for a longer time period (4 to 8 weeks). There is no conclusive evidence to support the use of a particular PPI over another for either duodenal or gastric ulcer healing. For Helicobacter pylori-positive duodenal ulceration, a combination of a PPI and 2 antibacterials will eradicate H. pylori in over 90% of cases and significantly reduce ulcer recurrence. Patients with H. pylori-positive gastric ulcers should be managed similarly. PPIs also have efficacy advantages over ranitidine and misoprostol and are better tolerated than misoprostol in patients taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). In endoscopically proven gastro-oesophageal reflux disease, standard daily doses of the PPIs are more effective than H2-receptor antagonists for healing, and patients should receive a 4 to 8 week course of treatment. For severe reflux, with ulceration and/or stricture formation, a higher dose regimen (omeprazole 40 mg, lansoprazole 60 mg, pantoprazole 80 mg or rabeprazole 40 mg daily) appears to yield better healing rates. There is little evidence that PPIs lead to resolution of Barrett's oesophagus or a reduction of subsequent adenocarcinoma development, but PPIs are indicated in healing of any associated ulceration. In Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, PPIs have become the treatment of choice for the management of gastric acid hypersecretion.

Hinesol, a major component of the crude drug "So-jutsu" (Atractylodis Lanceae Rhizoma), strongly inhibited H+,K+-ATPase activity with a IC50 value of 5.8x10(-5) M. It also inhibited Na+,K+-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase, Ca2+-ATPase, and H+-ATPase activities, although the inhibition rate was lower. No effects on alkaline or acid phosphatase activities were observed. The mechanism by which hinesol inhibited H+,K+-ATPase activity was studied in detail. The inhibition was uncompetitive with respect to ATP, and it increased as the Mg2+ concentration was raised, whereas it was not affected by the K+ concentration. The activity of K+-dependent p-nitrophenyl phosphatase (K+-pNPPase), a partial reaction of H+,K+-ATPase, was inhibited by hinesol noncompetitively with respect to pNPP (IC50 value of 1.6x10(-4) M), and competitively with respect to K+, whereas it was not affected by the Mg2+ concentration. These results suggest that hinesol is a relatively specific inhibitor of H+,K+-ATPase. It appears that hinesol reacts with enzyme in the E1 state in the presence of ATP and Mg2+ and forms the complex hinesol-H+ E1-ATP or hinesol x E1-P, blocking the conformational change to the E2 state. Furthermore, hinesol enhanced the inhibitory effect of omeprazole on H+,K+-ATPase, and the inhibitory site of hinesol was different from that of omeprazole. The effect of So-jutsu as an anti-gastric ulcer agent may be ascribed to the inhibitory effect of hinesol on H+,K+-ATPase activity.
