Blood pressures (intracranial (superior sagittal sinus), portal and caval hypertension and aortal hypotension, mmHg), and thrombosis (thrombus mass, g) in rats at 15 min and 60 min following perforation of the stomach. Saline (5 mL/kg) (control) or BPC 157 (10 μg/kg and 10 ng/kg) were given at 5 min thereafter.
