【摘要】目的:观察针刺及艾灸疗法对化疗骨髓抑制及白细胞计数的影响, 并探讨其作用机制。方法:采 用动物实验和临床研究相结合的方法, 观察针灸对化疗中骨髓及白细胞的影响, 用生物培养法检测造血 干/祖细胞数量、血清集落刺激因子的活性。结果:与模型组比较, 针刺及艾灸组外周血白细胞提前 1 d开 始回升。针灸促进中性粒细胞分裂增殖最明显。结论:针灸抗化疗骨髓抑制, 提升白细胞计数的效应可能 与促进骨髓细胞向外周血中释放、 延长白细胞寿命, 提高血清集落刺激因子的活性, 促使造血干/祖细胞尽 快增殖, 减轻化疗药物对造血干/祖细胞的损伤等有关。 【关键词】针灸疗法;药物疗法;白细胞减少;环磷酰胺;肿瘤;小鼠 【中图分类号】R2-03 【文献标志码】A 【Abstract】Objective: To observe the effect of acupuncture-moxibustion therapy on bone marrow suppression and the leukocytes count after chemotherapy, and to explore the mechanism. Methods: Animal experiments and clinical studies were combined to observe the effect of acupuncture-moxibustion on the bone marrow and leukocytes during chemotherapy. The biological cultivation was used to detect the amount of the hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells and the activity of the serum colony-stimulating factor (CSF). Results: The peripheral leukocytes count in the acupuncture-moxibustion group began to rebound 1 d earlier than that in the model group. The effect of acupuncture-moxibustion on neutrophils proliferation was the most obvious. Conclusion: The effect of acupuncture-moxibustion on resisting bone marrow suppression and rebounding the leukocytes count after chemotherapy may related to releasing the bone marrow cells to peripheral blood, extending the life of leukocyte, increasing the activity of serum CSF, promoting the hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell proliferation, and reducing the damage of chemotherapy on the hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell. 【Key Words】 Acupuncture-moxibustion Therapy; Drug Therapy; Leukopenia; Cyclophosphamide; Neoplasms; Mice Chemotherapy is an important means of treating cancer, but the side effect of bone marrow suppression can result in decrease of the peripheral blood leukocytes and insufficiency of the immune function, and this may lead to the failure of chemotherapy. A large number of clinical data confirmed that acupuncture can prevent the side effects of chemotherapy [1,2] , but the mechanism is not clear. Our research team has carried out studies to explore the mechanism, and now it was summarized as follows.An animal model of chemotherapy-induced leukopenia was established and then was treated with acupuncture-moxibustion. The effect of acupuncturemoxibustion on leukocyte count was observed and the relationship between leukocytes increase and bone marrow hematopoietic was studied.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
