Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the effects of electroacupuncture and laserpuncture on healing skin wounds in female Wistar rats.
- Ninety rats were divided into three groups: control, electroacupuncture, and laserpuncture, and evaluated over a 21-day period for various histological and biochemical changes.
- Both electroacupuncture and laserpuncture enhanced healing by increasing fibroblast numbers and new blood vessels compared to the control, although they showed different effects on collagen types and growth factors over the experimental timeline.
Acupuncture and moxibustion stimulate fibroblast proliferation and neoangiogenesis during tissue repair of experimental excisional injuries in adult female Wistar rats.

Objective: To investigate the effects of acupuncture and moxibustion on the repair of excisional skin injuries on the back of adult female Wistar rats.
Methods: 90 animals were divided into three groups: C, control; A, acupuncture treatment (needled at traditional acupuncture points BL13, BL17 and ST36); M, moxibustion treatment (overlying same traditional acupuncture points). They were euthanased on days 7, 14 and 21 after injury for removal and preparation of tissue for analysis.
