论经络的结构特点和作用机制

On structure characteristics and mechanisms of channels and collaterals

传统中医对经络结构的认识可能与人类早期的整体医学研究策略有关,具有"内在"、亚微、整体等方面的特点。其作用机制则可能涉及细胞连接直接通讯通道(个体发生过程中相关细胞直接通讯关系的特定保持)、胞外基质应力网络支架体系及其生物物理信息传递—力—化学信号转换—细胞内信息整合以及针刺血清现象中经络结构与活动的"泛化"等多个方面,由此提出经络结构—作用机制的多因素假说。

Recognition of traditional Chinese medicine for the structures of channels and collaterals is possibly related with the tactics of human early general medical study, characterized by ＂inner＂, sub micro, entirety, etc. The mechanisms are possibly involved in direct communication pathway of the cell junction （specially keeping the relevant cellular direct communication relation in individual development）, the extra-cellular matrix stress network system and its biophysical message transmission--force--meridian signs transformation--inter-cellular massage integration, and ＂generalization＂ of the structures and activities of channels and collaterals in acupuncture serum phenomenon, etc. Thus, the hypothesis of multi-factors about channel structures-mechanisms is proposed.
