a Negative control showed normal parietal cells (PC) distribution with normal gastric pits (GP) and normal surface mucus epithelium (SME) (H&E, X40). b NSAIDs induced peptic ulcer group showed a marked increase of parietal cells (PC) with degenerated gastric glands (DGG) marked degeneration of surface mucus epithelium. With loss of histoarchitecture of gastric mucosa, the submucosal layer showed marked infiltration with inflammatory cells (IFC) (H&E, X10). c Nizatidine prophylactic group showed changes of parietal cells (PC) with mild degeneration of surface mucus epithelium (SE), erosion of mucus membrane (EM) (H&E, X40)
