Article Synopsis
  • Acupoint Catgut Embedding (ACE) is a modified acupuncture technique aimed at providing therapeutic effects for various diseases, but its local stimulation mechanisms are not fully understood.
  • This study examines how ACE influences TRPV2 and TRPV4 ion channels at the Zusanli (ST36) acupoint in rats by embedding a PGLA suture and using inhibitors to measure changes in cellular responses.
  • Findings reveal that ACE significantly enhances the expression of TRPV2 and TRPV4, intracellular calcium levels, and markers for certain immune cells, but these effects decrease over time, indicating a complex interaction between mechanical stimulation and calcium signaling pathways.
