Comparison of a chymase inhibitor and hyaluronic acid/carboxymethylcellulose (Seprafilm) in a novel peritoneal adhesion model in rats.

Adhesion formation that occurred after alkali-induced injury of the cecum was used as a novel adhesion model in rats, and it was compared with that of a common adhesion model after abrading the cecum. Using the novel adhesion model, inhibition of adhesion formation by a chymase inhibitor, Suc-Val-Pr...
