It is important to emphasize that this mucoid plaque is not the same thing as the normal adherent mucus layer. There is good evidence that the adherent mucus layer plays an important role in the protection of gastroduodenal mucosa from the endogenous aggressors acid and pepsin. However, adherent mucus does not appear to offer much protection against exogenous damaging agents, e.g. alcohol and aspirin. These agents permeate the adherent mucus barrier, damaging the underlying epithelium. The subsequent epithelial repair process is protected by a gelatinous coat over ten times thicker and distinct from the normal adherent mucus layer."@en }
