Hypoglycemic Effect of Electroacupuncture at ST25 Through Neural Regulation of the Pancreatic Intrinsic Nervous System

Abstract: Electroacupuncture (EA) is considered to have potential antidiabetic effects; however, the role of the pancreatic intrinsic nervous system (PINS) in EA-induced amelioration of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) remains unclear. Therefore, we investigated whether EA at ST25 exerts any beneficial effects on insulin resistance (IR), inflammation severity, and pancreatic β cell function via the PINS in a rat model of a high-fat diet-streptozotocin (HFD/STZ)-induced diabetes. To this end, Sprague Dawley rats were fed with HFD … Show more

“… 27 In this study, the efficacy of electroacupuncture performed at the lower he-sea and front-mu acupoints was similar to that of MET in terms of weight loss, hypoglycemia, and improvement of insulin resistance, suggesting that electroacupuncture performed at the lower he-sea and front-mu acupoints had a good ability to provide mechanical therapy for T2DM, which was consistent with the results of previous studies. 28 , 29 …”

The gut microbiota consists of approximately 500-1000 species of bacteria.…”

“…After 24 h of fasting, the diabetic model rats were induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of STZ (35 mg/kg) diluted in 0.1 mol/L citrate buffer solution. After 72 h, the fasting blood glucose (FBG) of the rats’ tail vein was measured, and the serum glucose level was ≥16.7 mmol × L −1 for three consecutive days, indicating that the T2DM model rats were successfully established ( Xu et al, 2022 ). The HFD feeding was continued until week eight, and models were assessed by a urodynamic test.…”

“…A 3 cm incision was made on the skin on the right side of the midline of the abdomen. The attached fat was removed from the duodenum, so as to retain the connective tissue between the duodenum and pancreas and fully expose the pancreatic nerve [20]. The intracranial nerve branches were separated and connected to a prefabricated double-hook electrode (PFA-coated platinum, A-M Systems, USA, 772000).…”
