Abstract
Fibrin glue positively modulates gastric ulcer healing by causing an increase in the number of proliferating cells in the ulcer margin and also possibly enhances the density of microvessels. These changes are accompanied by an enhanced expression of FGF-2, which is known to exert beneficial effects on ulcer healing.
