电针足少阳经穴对正常大鼠体质量影响的研究

Research on Effects of Electroacupuncture on Foot Shaoyang Meridian Points on Normal Rat's Body Weight

目的观察电针足少阳经穴对正常大鼠体质量、饮食、体内脂肪、血清瘦素、ACTH等的影响。方法健康清洁级SD大鼠40只,雌雄各半,均设电针足少阳经穴组(简称电针组)及对照组。电针组予以电针足少阳经穴治疗,对照组不予电针处理。实验4周,比较雌雄电针组和对照组体质量、饮食、腹腔内脂肪、体脂、比重、血清瘦素、ACTH等的差异。结果雄性电针组与对照组相比,饮食量降低(P<0.01),饮水量降低(P<0.01),体质量降低(P<0.05),腹腔内脂肪、体脂、比重、血清瘦素、ACTH等差异无统计学意义(P> 0.05)。雌性电针组与对照组相比,饮食量降低(P<0.05),饮水量降低(P<0.01),腹腔内脂肪降低(P<0.01),体质量、体脂、比重、血清瘦素、ACTH等差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论电针足少阳经穴治疗可以降低正常SD大鼠的体质量或体内脂肪,对大鼠血清瘦素、ACTH等影响不大。体质量及体内脂肪减少的原因可能是电针后导致大鼠饮食及饮水量减少。

Observe To observe the effects of electroacupuncture(EA) on foot Shaoyang meridian points on body weight, diet, body fat,serum leptin and ACTH in normal rats. Methods Forty healthy and clean SD rats, male and female, both were randomly divided into two groups: Shaoyang meridian group(EA group) and control group. The electroacupuncture group was treated with electroacupuncture on Shaoyang meridian points, and the control group was not treated with electroacupuncture. After 4 weeks, the differences in body weight, diet, intra-abdominal fat, body fat, specific gravity, serum leptin and ACTH were compared between the male and female EA group and the control group. Results Compared with the control group, the male EA group had a lower diet(P<0.01), water intake decreased(P<0.01), body weight decreased(P<0.05), intra-abdominal fat, body fat, specific gravity, serum leptin,ACTH, etc., and there had no significant difference(P>0.05). Compared with the control group, the female EA group had a lower diet(P<0.05), water intake decreased(P<0.01), the intra-abdominal fat decreased(P<0.01), body weight, body fat, specific gravity, serum leptin, ACTH, etc., and there had no significant difference(P>0.05). Conclusion EA on the Shaoyang meridian points can reduce the body weight and body fat of normal SD rats, and has little effect on serum leptin and ACTH in rats. The reason for the decrease in body weight and body fat may be caused by a decrease in diet and water intake in rats after electroacupuncture.
