The results indicated that MS could enhance the proliferation of TIL,accelerate it to reach the exponential growth phase, and assist recombinant interleukin 2 (rIL-2) to enhance successively the percentage of CD3^+ positive cells, maintain the number of CD4^+ positive T cells, promote greatly the percentage of CD8^+ positive T cells among TILs, and reverse the CD4^+/CD8^+ ratio. Such cooperative effects rely on relative specificity of acupoints. It is suggested that MS is beneficial to the growth of TIL both in the aspects of proliferation and phenotypes.展开更多

Statistical results showed that 65 acupoints were used in ancient times, up to 108 times in frequency. The common acupoints are as follows： Gongsun （SP 4）, Danshu （BL 19）, Yinbai （SP 1）, Qihai （CV 6）, Tianfu （LU 3）, Sanyinjiao （SP 6）, Yinlingquan （SP 9）, Feishu （BL 13）, Yemen （TE 2）, Guanyuan （CV 4）, Yinjiao （GV 28） et al. The common meridians are Bladder Meridian, Spleen Meridian, Conception Vessel, Stomach Meridian, et al.展开更多

Method： Thirty-six cases with cancer pain were randomized into a treatment group and a control group. Twenty-four cases in the treatment group were treated with acupuncture plus three-step analgesic ladder approach and 12 cases in the control group were treated with three-step analgesic ladder approach alone. Result： The total effective rate and marked effect rate of the treatment group were 95.8% and 54.2% respectively, while those of the control group were 83.3% and 25.0% respectively, indicating a significant statistical difference （P〈0.05） in terms of the therapeutic efficacy of the two groups and acupuncture plus three-step analgesic ladder approach can further improve the therapeutic efficacy.展开更多
