These results indicate that acupuncture markedly inhibited CR-induced edema and modulated the expressions of certain cytokines in response to CR-induced inflammation. These findings might give us a clue in elucidating the underlying mechanism of anti-inflammatory effect of acupuncture.
Biomarkers in response to acupuncture stimulation to GB34 were identified in a mouse model for Parkinson's disease. These biomarkers might provide a promising clue for understanding the neuroprotective effect of acupuncture in Parkinson's disease.
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.
