Gastric mucosal lesions induced by gastric hypermotility are characteristically observed along the gastric mucosal folds. To determine the role of microcirculatory disturbance in this particular condition, we measured the gastric mucosal haemodynamics after vagal stimulation and also examined histologically the transparent specimens of the transverse section of the contracted stomach in rats. Gastric mucosal haemodynamics measured with a reflectance spectrophotometer showed the repetition of ischaemia-reperfusion during gastric hypermotility. The rapidly frozen and transparent specimen of the corpus showed that gastric mucosa was stretched at the crest and compressed at the base of the mucosal folds. Characteristic distribution of red blood cells was observed; it was dense at the crest of the mucosal folds and sparse at the base. These results suggest that gastric hypermotility may induce the distinctive heterogeneous microcirculatory disturbance in the folds and may contribute to the characteristic localization of mucosal lesions.
