Article Synopsis
- Electroacupuncture (EA) has potential benefits for nerve and vascular regeneration, reducing inflammation and oxidative stress, but its optimal stimulation site for treating cerebral ischemia remains uncertain.
- This study examined the effects of EA on motor function recovery and associated molecular changes in rat models of cerebral ischemia, particularly focusing on various acupoints from Yang and Yin meridians.
- Results indicate that EA at Yin meridian acupoints significantly enhances neurobehavioural recovery and vascular density, while affecting key proteins involved in neuroprotection, unlike stimulation at Yang meridian points.
