Results showed that after EA of “Zusanli" (ST 36), CD+ 4, RBC-C 3bRR and RBC-ICR in the peripheral blood of the normal rats increased significantly while CD+ 8 had no any considerable changes and a positive correlation between CD+ 4 and RBC-C 3bRR was found. In immunosuppression model rats, the values of CD+ 4 and RBC-C 3bRR were obviously lower than those of the normal control group while CD+ 8 had no any striking changes; but after EA treatment, there were no evident differences between EA group and normal control group in the above-mentioned indexes. There were also no any significant differences between non-acupoint group and normal control group in those indexes. Results suggest that EA of “Zusanli" (ST 36) can raise T cell immune function and RBC adhesion function in both normal rats and immunosuppression model rats, both of which present a positive correlation.展开更多

Methods: 30 SD rats were made into renal hypertension rats(RHR) by clamping the kidney arteries with silver clip. 42 days later, their bilateral common carotid arteries were blocked repeatedly to cause cerebral ischemia. The Hypertension vascular dementia model was then set up. Then they were randomly divided into VD model group, EA groupand medication group (Dihydroergotoxine, DHET), with 10 cases in each group. The therapeutic course was 28 days. The ability of learning and memory was using an obs erved by water maze, and the function of red blood cell immune was detected after treatment. Results: the latecy of the EA group and medication group was shorter than that of model group (P<0.05, P<0.005), and that of EA group was shorter than medication group (P<0.05, P<0.005). EA and medication could increase the RBCC 3b receptor flower circle rate and reduce the RBCIC flower circle rate significantly(P<0.05, P< 0.01). Conclusion: The results indicated that EA therapy could raise the ability of learning and memory and improve the function of red cell immune in VD rats, while the therapeutic effect of EAis better than DHET.展开更多
