[Effect of electroacupuncture on liver surface blood perfusion and related indexes of oxidative stress in mice with acute alcoholic liver injury].

Objective: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on liver surface blood perfusion and related indexes of oxidative stress in mice with acute alcoholic liver injury （AALI）, so as to explore its mechanism underlying improving of AALI.

Methods: Twenty-four Kunming mice were randomly divided into control, model and EA groups (8 mice/group). AALI model was established by intragastric administration of 50% ethanol at 6 g/kg.

Evaluation of liver function and electroacupuncture efficacy of animals with alcoholic liver injury by the novel imaging methods.

Imaging methods to evaluate hepatic microcirculation (HM) and liver function (LF) by directly monitoring overall liver tissue remain lacking. This study establish imaging methods for LF that combines Laser speckle perfusion imaging (LSPI) and in vivo optical imaging (IVOI) technologies to investigate changes of hepatic microcirculation and reserve function in the animals gavaged with 50% ethanol (15 ml/kg·bw) for a model of acute alcoholic liver injury (ALI), and for evaluation of electroacupuncture (EA) effect. The liver blood perfusion and indocyanine green (ICG) distribution were observe by LSPI and IVOI separately.

Effects of Electroacupuncture Stimulation at "Zusanli" Acupoint on Hepatic NO Release and Blood Perfusion in Mice.

The study is to observe the influence of electroacupuncture (EA) stimulation at "Zusanli" (ST36) on the release of nitric oxide (NO) and blood perfusion (BP) in the liver and further explore whether the hepatic blood perfusion (HBP) changes were regulated by EA ST36 induced NO in nitric oxide synthase inhibited mice. The HBP change of the mice was detected by laser speckle perfusion imaging (LSPI) before and after being given interventions, and the NO in liver tissue was detected by nitric acid reductase in each group. The NO levels and HBP in the L-NAME group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.

A pilot study on effects of acupuncture and moxibustion by hyperspectral imaging technique.

This study was to observe the effects of acupuncture and moxibustion on spectrum features of acupoint using hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technique. HSI of the Neiguan (PC6) in the acupuncture groups, moxibustion groups, and control groups was scanned by the hyperspectral imager to analyze the spectrum features and the variations within the wavelength of 400-1000 nm and explore the relationship between the spectral characteristics and effects of acupuncture and moxibustion. The light absorption intensity was slightly reduced within the wave band of 540-590 nm after acupuncture.

Investigation of hepatic blood perfusion by laser speckle imaging and changes of hepatic vasoactive substances in mice after electroacupuncture.

The study was conducted to observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on hepatic blood perfusion (HBP) and vascular regulation. We investigated 60 male anesthetized mice under the following 3 conditions: without EA stimulation (control group); EA stimulation at Zusanli (ST36 group); EA stimulation at nonacupoint (NA group) during 30 min. The HBP was measured using the laser speckle perfusion imaging (LSPI).

[Influence of electroacupuncture on indocyanine green metabolism in liver: display of in vivo fluorescence imaging].

Objective: To observe the influence of electroacupuncture (EA) on indocyanine green (ICG) metabolism in the liver and the action mechanism of acupuncture for hepatic regulation.

Methods: Forty Kunming mice were randomly divided into an EA group and a control group, 20 cases in each one. Combined with classical hepatic metabolism test of ICG, after tail vein injection of ICG, twenty mice were treated with EA at "Zusanli" (ST 36) for 20 min.

[Blood perfusion in different facial acupoint areas and its changes after acupuncture stimulation of Hegu (LI 4) displayed by laser Doppler imager in healthy volunteers].

Objective: To observe the blood perfusion levels in different facial acupoint regions and changes after acupuncture stimulation of Hegu (LI 4).

Methods: Thirty healthy volunteer subjects were equally divided into control group and acupuncture group. Blood perfusion levels of different facial acupoint areas were detected using a Laser Doppler Imager.

[Effect of electroacupuncture of "Taichong" (LR 3) on liver function in mild alcoholic liver injury rats].

Objective: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) of "Taichong" (LR 3) on liver function in rats with mild alcoholic liver injury (MALI) so as to explore the feasibility of acupuncture in improving mild alcoholic liver injury.

Methods: Forty SD rats were randomly divided into control, model, EA-LR 3 and EA-non-acupoint groups (10 rats/group). MALI model was duplicated by intragastric administration of distillate spirit (14 mL/kg) for 12 hours.

[Pilot application of optical in vivo imaging on acupuncture research].

Objective: As a new technique of biomedical imaging, the optical in vivo imaging has been used in many research fields of biological processes, such as analyzing gene expression pattern, observing action of drug target. For extending its application field, this technique is initially used to investigate the effect of acupuncture in this study.

Methods: Seven SPF mice were randomly divided into an acupuncture group (4 cases) and a control group (3 cases).

Evaluation of influence of acupuncture and electro-acupuncture for blood perfusion of stomach by laser Doppler blood perfusion imaging.

The objective of this study is to observe effects of acupuncture and electro-acupuncture (EA) on blood perfusion in the stomach, and probe into the application of laser Doppler blood perfusion imaging technique in the study of the effect of acupuncture and moxibustion on the entrails. In the acupuncture group of 20 rats, acupuncture was given at "Zusanli" (ST 36) and in EA group of 18 rats, EA was applied at "Zusanli" (ST 36), with 18 rats without acupuncture used as control group. Changes of blood perfusion and microcirculation distribution in the stomach were investigated with laser Doppler blood perfusion imager (LDPI).

Objective: To observe effects of electroacupuncture (EA) on gastric blood perfusion and search for a study method reflecting changes of blood perfusion.

Methods: On the basis of establishing a new gastric ischemia-reperfusion model which was made by ligature of gastric right artery, EA was given at "Zusanli" (ST 36) and the gastric blood perfusion images were displayed by a laser Doppler blood perfusion imager (LDPI), and effects of EA on gastric blood perfusion were analyzed.

Results: (1) The image of the gastric ischemia-reperfusion is clear.
