DYNAMIC MORPHOLOGICAL CHANGES IN THE STOMACH IN THE CONTEXT OF ULCERATIVE COLITIS: AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY

Keywords: stomach, ulcerative colitis, experiment, histology, morphometry, ratsAbstract
Abstract
This study comprehensively examined morphological and morphometric
changes in the gastric mucosa and wall under experimental ulcerative colitis (UC)
conditions. The experiment was conducted using an animal model in which colitis was
induced with TNBS. Histological examinations revealed severe dystrophic,
inflammatory, erosive, and necrotic changes in the gastric mucosa, vascular and
cellular infiltration in the submucosa, and degenerative processes in the muscular layer.
These changes significantly impact the structural and functional state of the gastric
wall. The results have practical significance for clinical gastroenterology and
morphology.
