Objective: To observe the effect of "Zhibian" (BL54)-toward-"Shuidao" (ST28) needling technique on the relative protein expression of the signaling pathway of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 1 (NOD1)/ receptor-interacting protein 2 (RIP2)/nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) and the expression of proinflammatory cytokines in the rats with primary dysmenorrhea (PD), so as to explore the underlying mechanism of this acupuncture technique for pain alleviation in PD.
Methods: Thirty female SD rats of SPF grade with normal estrous cycle were randomized into a blank group, a model group and an acupuncture group, 10 rats in each one. Using the intraperitoneal injection with estradiol benzoate combined with oxytocin, PD model was prepared in the model group and the acupuncture group.

Background: Leptospirosis is a globally neglected re-emerging zoonosis affecting all mammals, albeit with variable outcomes. Humans are susceptible to leptospirosis; infection with Leptospira interrogans species can cause severe disease in humans, with multi-organ failure, mainly affecting kidney, lung and liver function, leading to death in 10% of cases. Mice and rats are more resistant to acute disease and can carry leptospires asymptomatically in the kidneys and act as reservoirs, shedding leptospires into the environment.

Podocyte injury is a major biomarker of primary glomerular disease that leads to massive proteinuria and kidney failure. Ginsenoside Rk1, a substance derived from ginseng, has several pharmacological activities, such as anti-apoptotic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects. In this study, our goal is to investigate the roles and mechanisms of ginsenoside Rk1 in podocyte injury and acute kidney injury (AKI).
