Abstract in brief

  • The study explored the gastroprotective effects of BST-104, a water extract from Lonicera japonica, on gastritis and peptic ulcers in mice and rats, examining various health markers after treatment.
  • Results showed that BST-104 significantly reduced gastric lesions, increased gastric mucus content, and enhanced antioxidant levels while reducing inflammatory cytokines in the treated models.
  • The mechanisms behind these effects were linked to the downregulation of the NF-κB pathway, indicating that BST-104 and its component chlorogenic acid offer protective benefits through both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions.
